Tommy Fury doesn’t believe Jake Paul’s excuses after he suffered his first loss on Sunday night.
After their fight, Paul claimed that he gotten sick during training camp and that he had suffered an arm injury leading up to the fight.
“All respect to Tommy, he won. I think we deserve that rematch. I don’t know if I agree with the judges. I got a 10-8 round twice… I felt flat, I got sick really bad twice in this camp, injured my arm. But I lost, I’m not making excuses.”

Fury was interviewed by IFLTV a day after the fight and is calling B.S. on Jake’s illness claims.
“It wouldn’t be my approach if I lost the fight, I’d say fair and square the better man won, even if I had been ill.
“I don’t believe that he’s been ill because he wasn’t ill when he was posting all the way through social media about, you know how great his camp’s been..so I wouldn’t buy into that, he got beat fair and square last night and that’s it.”
“If he wants to make excuses, then he can, but it is what is, he got beat.”
“HE WASN’T ILL WHEN HE WAS POSTING ALL THE WAY THROUGH ON SOCIAL MEDIA”

It does appear that Fury and Paul will fight soon after Jake said he will activate his rematch clause.
