“You didn’t beat a pro boxer tonight. I’m the pro boxer. Let’s get that straight. I have already ticked off one name in Jake Paul. He’s done, he’s finished. You’ll be ticked off. Like it or not you will be ticked off. And Misfits is gonna be over.”
Tommy strongly believes that Jake Paul is the best boxer and after his win over The Problem Child he claims that KSI is easy money. Following their heated verbal exchange, a matchup between Fury and JJ appears imminent.
Moreover, Misfits matchmaker Mams Taylor revealed that the talks between the two parties have progressed and a deal is being finalized. As it stands, JJ would most likely fight Tommy Fury in December as he originally planned to fight Jake Paul at that time period.

After the conclusion of the PPV, Tommy Fury shared his thoughts about the matchup while speaking to Behind the Gloves.
