Jake Paul confirms he will watch rivals KSI and Tommy Fury fight from ringside with brother Logan on the undercard
JAKE PAUL confirmed he will watch from ringside as his rivals Tommy Fury and KSI fight each other – with brother Logan also on the undercard.
Paul was beaten by Fury on a split-decision last February in Saudi Arabia, his first boxing loss.
But he snubbed a rematch to instead return over the weekend in Texas against ex-UFC star Nate Diaz.
So Fury, 24, instead turned his attention to KSI, 30, and the two recently announced their all-British blockbuster on October 14 in Manchester.
And with his eyes potentially on the winner and older brother Logan returning on the same night, Paul will be in the house.
He said: “I’m super excited for him, I’m happy as a brother to see him train and to see him go back up there and I’m going to be there for sure.
“It might be a mad house, it might be a mad house but I’m all for it.”
Paul had planned to beat Fury – who was his first opponent with prior boxing experience – before prising Diaz over to the ring.
And despite the defeat, he stuck to the plan after the MMA veteran walked out on the UFC.
But Paul, 26, is instead only focussing on Diaz, 38, pumping the brakes on looking too far into to the future.

He said: “I think Nate was always the plan since he was getting out of the UFC but right now I’m just focussed on this fight.
“We’ll see what happens moving on from here. There’s still a lot of big names, a lot of big fights to be made.
“Again, I’m just going to continue to challenge myself and continue to fight big names in the sport.”
