And it appears Hotline Bling rapper Drake has been convinced by the American’s fighting talk.
He took to his Instagram page to post a snapshot of an online bid on the bout, placed on betting platform Stake.
It showed Drake backing Jake Paul to win by a KO – a knockout – with the odds at 3.60.
After placing his bet, which works out at the sterling equivalent of £334,826.12, Drake could be in for a return payout of £1,205,374 should his prediction be correct.
Clearly feeling confident, the hitmaker wrote in his image caption: “Knock knock @stake.”
One of his followers was quick to write: “Best odds on this fight tbh… Jake overhand right countering a jab.”
Another put: “EASY WORK!” as a third wrote: “Easy money.”
One gushed: “Wow! Love it!”
A final fan surmised: “Fiery bet.”
In the lead-up to the bout, Tommy has promised to educate Jake Paul on a boxing lesson in the ring.
Fury stated: “Boxing is about skill and class and this man doesn’t have any of it and I have a lot of it, and I’m going to bring him to school on Sunday.”
His point may well have been proved when Jake Paul leaked the arrival of Tommy and Molly Mae’s first child – then refused to apologise.
