REVEALED: Tony bellew sends simple message to jake paul followingtommy fury withdrawal - The Real Truth

Jake Paul has so far enjoyed an unbeaten start to his career in boxing and has forged out a 5-0 record. He has so far beaten AnEsonGib, Nate Robinson and UFC stars Ben Askren and Tyron Woodley but is yet to fight anybody who has previously entered the ring as a boxer.

.He was due to face Tommy Fury in December before the Englishman withdrew due to a rib injury which was compounded by a chest infection. He has however, beaten both UFC stars in Askren and Woodley but former cruiserweight world champion Tony Bellew has stated that Paul must face a 'boxer' in his next fight in what has been seen as a jibe against the American YouTube star.

"Just a boxer will do," Bellew replied to a tweet from DAZN, asking who the 25-year-old should fight next. It could happen with Fury in the mix as a potential opponent, but the Mirror report that Paul's camp is holding out for a fight against another UFC star and former world champion Nate Diaz.
