Eddie Hearn, a boxing head expert, urges Jake Paul (6-1, 4 KOs) to choose a bout with fellow YouTuber KSI (5-0-1, 4 KOs) over a rematch with Tommy Fury because he views the latter as a more "big" opponent.
It's obvious that Jake won't be able to progress enough in the upcoming four to six months for him to beat a runner like Tommy Fury. Jake Paul lacks the skill level and ring IQ necessary to defeat his technique.
Tommy Fury is a fighter who would be destroyed by a top 15 cruiserweight contender, but he is wise enough to avoid fighting contenders and it seems like his career is not about that.
“I do respect Jake Paul, and I respect him even more after last night. He can’t fight; he will never be a world champion. You had two not-very-good fighters who were quite evenly matched,” said Eddie Hearn to the DAZN.
“The rematch, I know people will watch it, but we’ve seen what they are, not very good. Fight KSI; it’s absolutely massive. Because the reality is any time you fight anyone with any ability, you will get beat.”
