JOHN FURY has given fresh hope in son Tommy’s proposed fight with Jake Paul and claimed they are even willing to be “underpaid”.
The pair of celebrity boxing rivals are in talks to reschedule their grudge match once again.

And John said although Paul is lowballing them at the negotiation table they are happy to strike a cut-price deal.
He told FairBettingSites: “Jake Paul’s underpaying us but we’ll take an underpayment to get him in the ring.
“We’re trying to put it together now. We’ve said whatever the money is, let’s take it.
“We’re not bothered. We’re being underpaid, we know that. But we’re going to say let’s get on with it.
“Whatever the money is he’s got to get Jake Paul in that ring in 2023 and get him knocked out. He knows it. Jake Paul will take some nailing down.
“Even though we know we’re getting underpaid by millions of pounds basically because he’s getting all the millions Jake Paul – and we’re the A-side of conventional boxing.
“He’s crossing over to our side of the road, not the other way around.
“He thinks he’s the A-side, how is he the A-side when Tyson’s the most popular sportsman in the whole world?

“What gives Jake Paul to command, say, an 80-20 split because that’s what he’s offering.
“Whatever he wants to give Tommy – peanuts – we’re not bothered.”
Twice the duo have put pen to paper on a fight but both times Tommy has been forced to withdraw.
Last December he suffered a rib injury and in their rehashed date of August, the Brit was hit with US visa issues which are still to be sorted.
Paul, 25, in October beat UFC legend Anderson Silva, 47, the biggest win in his 6-0 career.
A month later he travelled to Dubai to watch Tommy, 23, box in a late-notice exhibition and the two camps agreed to fight in 2023.
But Paul recently took to Twitter to accuse Fury of “ducking” him after sending out a “seven-figure” fight contract.
YouTuber Wade Plem later claimed the sum was $2million, in a report which was “liked” by Paul on Twitter.
That was the purse Tommy demanded when they negotiated this summer – only for it to fall out of bed again.
With the Fury family still faced with a travel ban, John wants to see the bout staged at Tottenham’s 62,000-seat stadium or in Saudi Arabia.
He said: “I’d like it to be at Tottenham but knowing them they like fighting abroad where they can get away with certain stuff.
“What they can’t get away with in Britain they can get away with abroad. And that’s why they opt to go overseas.
“We want it at Tottenham. We want it in England, but he decides, doesn’t he? Because all of a sudden, he’s become the A-side.
“We’re not bothered about who is the A-side or the Z-side, we’re willing to follow him all over the globe to get him in the ring.
“Whether London or Saudi Arabia, the only place we can’t do it is America because we’re not allowed there.”

- Defense

Punching Techniques
There are seven types: Left Hook (right hook), Right Hook (uppercut), Cross (cross), Straight, Overhand, Underhand. Each punch is unique. Some punches are more powerful than others. A strong uppercut for example requires a lot of force. On the other hand, a straight punch requires less power but it is faster than other punches.
There are many combinations that can be used to punch. These are combinations which combine several punches in order to achieve a specific goal. A combination can contain multiple parts. An example of this is a left hook, followed by a right crossing. This will damage the opponent’s jaw.
Guard Techniques
Boxers protect themselves by protecting their bodies. He does this by using his legs.
Legs
Boxers must use their legs to defend themselves against kicks. After receiving a kick, he will raise his leg and move away from the attacker. To avoid being kicked on the sides, he bends at his knees when the attacker strikes from the front. If the attack comes from behind, however, he can stand straight up and block the kick by his foot.
Elbows
Elbow strikes are very effective because they inflict much pain. An elbow strike may be delivered directly or in an indirect manner. Directly means that you hit your opponent with your forearm while indirectly means that you hit him with another part of your arm.
Hands
Boxers use both their hands and arms to prevent incoming blows. Boxers use their hands to stop incoming punches. They raise their fists up above their heads and move towards the attack. They then make contact with their attacker’s fist.
Knees
Boxers who are subject to a punch to their stomachs, abdomens, or chests should bend at the knees to absorb the impact. Defense purposes are often served by knee strikes.
Feet
A boxer should take control of an attack and respond with counter-attacks. This way, he can gain distance between himself and his opponent. Boxers should also keep their balance when counter-attacking.
Stances
Boxing is only possible if a boxer has a clear stance. How he defends his self will depend on how he stances. It determines where he will face his opponent and how he will position his body. Boxers have many stances to choose from. These are some of our most favorite:
- Low stance
- High stance
- Southpaw stance
- Western stance
Moving your body
To win a fight, a fighter must move around the opponent. This includes changing speed, position and rhythm.
Rotation
When a boxer throws a punch, he rotates in order to increase the reach of his arm. Depending on what punch is being thrown, the speed of rotation varies.
Combinations
The timing of each punch will determine the effectiveness and efficiency of a combination. A combination is good if it starts with a strong punch then ends with a weaker one.
Sparring
Sparring is an exercise session to improve boxing skills. A sparring session is where a boxer trains both his mind and his body. Sparring is a way to learn how to fight without getting hurt.
Learning to box takes dedication and patience. You need to train hard and long in order to become a better boxer.
