Heavyweight champion, Tyson Fury has placed a large bet on his brother Tommy to defeat Jake Paul in Saudi Arabia.
The British boxer revealed that he has wagered a £100,000 on brother, Tommy after being impressed by Tommy’s performances in sparring leading up to the highly-anticipated grudge match.
Speaking to iFL TV, the Gypsy King claimed Paul will be surprised with his brother’s punching power.
‘Tommy knocks out 90 per cent of people that he spars with or drops them at least, so he’s a very hard puncher and Jake Paul will find that out tomorrow.
‘I’ve got 100 racks on it for an inside-the-distance stoppage, so if he loses, then I’ll lose 100 bags as well. I’ve got him at 3/1.
‘I know Tommy is going to knock him out. What is a little bit stupid is I see all these experts and professional boxers picking Jake Paul over Tommy.
‘I’m like, “What the hell are these guys watching?”, because Tommy will absolutely deck him.’
Meanwhile, internet celebrity KSI has placed a more modest best of $600 on his rival Jake Paul, whom he himself wishes to fight at the end of the year.
The world awaits a fascinating bout if the battle between the two social media influencers pushes through.
