Close Call: Who Won the Jake Paul and Tommy Fury Fight?

Tommy promised to take away Jake's undefeated boxing record on Sunday, and the talented boxer did just that against his heated rival in Saudi Arabia.

After two failed attempts to book the fight, Jake and Tommy finally got into the ring, and Tyson Fury's younger brother clinched the victory by a split decision.

The pair engaged in a messy encounter with no fighter enjoying any success, with the referee playing just as big a role as the two fighters.

After plenty of embraces and holding in the opening stages, Tommy began to find momentum with his jab as he picked up some early rounds. 

Jake later secured some solid points, one of which was in the eighth round, when he landed a jab that almost left his opponent unconscious.

Despite the punch's severity, Tommy recovered quickly, got back on his feet, and remained competitive for the remainder of the round.

After eight rounds and 24 minutes, Tommy was by far the more productive fighter as he landed 88 shots from 302 throws, while Jake threw 157 punches and landed 49.

In the end, Tommy was victorious with the narrow scores of 74-75, 76-73, and 76-73, separating the boxers. It was indeed a fight of a lifetime.

After the match, an emotional Tommy shared his thoughts, revealing that he and Jake's feud dominated the last two years of his life.

Most importantly, Tommy was proud of stepping out of his heavyweight champion brother Tyson Fury's shadow and making a name for himself.

Tommy further spoke about his opponent, revealing that Jake took some good shots and that the YouTuber was a far better boxer than Tommy thought he was.

Tommy said Jake was tougher than he expected, and there was no way people would say the social media sensation wasn't a proper boxer.

On the other hand, Jake got on the crowd's bad side when he made excuses, blaming illness and injury for his loss. The boxer revealed his performance was flat because of issues he experienced in his training camp.

The 26-year-old YouTuber also said he disagreed with the judges' scores but admitted it was a close fight. Speaking in the ring, Jake paid respect to the victorious Tommy.

The boxer also asked the crowd not to judge him by his wins but by his losses. Afterward, Jake said he would return, adding that he and Tommy deserved the rematch.

Unfortunately, the fans in Saudi Arabia were clearly unimpressed with Jake's excuses and booed him while he gave his post-fight interview.

After the interview, Jake took to social media to share a video he filmed inside his locker room. In the clip, the boxer said he never thought he would make such a video, but sometimes, life didn't go as planned.

The young boxer concluded his message by confessing that boxing is the best sport in the world. He thanked everyone for their support, adding that it was an amazing event.

Meanwhile, Jake has tagged his loss as a humbling experience. The young star is ready to prove himself in a rematch, and Tommy has accepted the challenge.
