Heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has starkly compared Gervonta David and Jake Paul.
In just over four years since making his professional boxing debut, Paul has managed to make quite the name for himself. Moreover, he has become one of the most talked about names in the sport.
However, he has also garnered a lot of criticism in the process. But that doesn’t seem true with Tyson Fury’s assessment of Jake Paul. Most recently, Fury praised Paul and compared him to Gervonta Davis.
Davis is considered to be one of the best boxers right now. However, Fury believes he is inferior to Paul in many ways. He said: “Who’s better, ‘Tank’ Davis or Jake Paul? Immediately, a normal layman would say, ‘Oh, ‘Tank’ Davis is better.’ But better at what? Is he better at selling tickets?”
He added:
“Is he better at selling stadiums out? Is he better at creating controversy? Is he better at getting followed on Instagram? Is he better at putting more eyeballs on boxing? Is he better than [Paul] at that? The answer would be no.”
