Problem child Paul has played plenty of mind games with the youngest Fury brother – including revealing the birth of his child.

Fury looked frustrated and angry when the pair faced each other in London last week, so much so that Hearn reckons Paul could deliver a decisive blow before they trade heavy leather.

During an appearance on The MMA Hour, the Matchroom Boxing boss said: “You have to be careful with the way Jake speaks personally about things like the Tommy Fury fight.

“Not necessarily with Tommy Fury, but there’s a fine line in this world between something going terribly wrong.

“But I think he’s going to mess with Tommy mentally.

“And I just think by the time they get in the ring — when they get in the ring — I think Tommy’s going to be defeated.”

Fury – the 23-year-old brother of WBC heavyweight champion Tyson – has recorded a perfect 8-0 in his pro career but has so far failed to impress boxing purists.

Hearn said of the Love Island star: “Tommy Fury is incredibly limited but he’s a fighter, he’s a boxer.

“The whole criticism of Jake is ‘You’ve never fought a boxer’ – he’s about to do that.

“Not a very good one, but still a boxer.

“It’s just a bit embarrassing for Tommy Fury if he were to lose.

“It’s embarrassing to lose to Jake, that’s the reality – for a boxer.

He said, “I think Jake Paul will win by KO.”
