Tommy Fury wants to face Jake Paul and KSI on the same night after his upcoming contest on the Floyd Mayweather vs Deji undercard next month. KSI – whose real name is JJ Olatunji – recently beat professional boxer Luis Pineda and rapper Swarmz on the same card and now Fury hopes to do the same.
“I’ve got a proper fight coming up that I’m in camp for now… and hopefully I’ll get out again in December on Tyson’s undercard, that’s the plan and then they know where I’m at,” Fury told Seconds Out.
“I’ve said all along I’d fight the both of them on the same night,” he continued. “Like KSI done with the two people the other day, the rapper and whatever that was, I will do the same with Jake Paul and him on the same night.
“When they finally get in the ring with me, I cannot wait to show everybody that what I was saying all along is true, it isn’t a fight for me… If you’re going to ask me to fight a YouTuber, KSI, who plays FIFA on the internet for a living and Jake Paul who does whatever he does, sign me up, not a problem.”
Fury is set to face Puerto Rican light-heavyweight Paul Bamba at the Coca-Cola Arena in Dubai on November 13 on KSI’s brother’s undercard. TNT was initially in talks to face former UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley, but negotiations have since fallen through. His new opponent, Bamba, is 5-2 as a professional with his two losses coming against losing journeymen, Abraham Velazquez Salazar (1-7), and Derrick Vann (2-5).
On paper, it is a step down from his previous foe Daniel Bocianski (11-2) who had actively faced fighters with winning records. But according to Tommy’s father John, it may not even take place with Fury Sr growing increasingly concerned by the lack of funds they have received from the organisers.

Speaking to iD Boxing, he said: “Well listen we’re out there on the 13th of November, we’re leaving here on bonfire night hopefully but if they don’t come up with accurs then we aren’t going nowhere. We are waiting for the money to be put up and if it’s not put up, we’re staying in Britain.
“It might not happen, until two men have faced each other, the way boxing is today it’s a shambles let’s be honest about it, it’s an absolute f***ing joke, but listen you’ve got to put the money up. Put the money up, the Fury’s will be there, f*** about, we’re not there. It’s black and white with us, yes and no, done.”
