Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury boost with Tyson’s promoter Frank Warren ‘working hard’ to secure 2023 fight
FRANK WARREN has vowed to "work hard" to make Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury finally happen next year.
The match-up has twice fallen through already, but Warren is determined to see his man TNT get a shot at the Problem Child.
Fury, 23, was due to fight Paul last December - only to have to pull out with a rib injury.
The fight was then made again for Madison Square Garden in August - but fell through when Fury had to drop out again after encountering visa issues.
Paul-promoted women's champion Amanda Serrano was recently in action in Manchester - beating Sarah Mahfoud at AO Arena with Fury in attendance.
As Serrano FaceTimed Paul after the fight, TNT hijacked the call to speak to his rival.

He told IFL TV: "We’re gonna make that happen next year, we’re gonna work hard to make that happen."
