Jake Paul comes up with two more excuses for Tommy Fury loss and claims he found ex-UFC star Anderson Silva tougher

JAKE PAUL has offered more excuses for his defeat to Tommy Fury.

The YouTuber turned boxer came up short against TNT in an explosive Saudi showdown last weekend.

Paul, 26, suffered a split decision defeat to the Love Island hunk, which he initially blamed on injury and illness.

And he's doubled down on his post-fight excuses.

On the BS with Jake Paul show, he said: "I was sick for four weeks of this nine-week camp.

"Jet lagged for another week. What's p***ing me off is that it had nothing to do with him."

Despite being outfoxed by Fury, Paul was less than impressed by the Brit reality TV star.

The former Disney actor added: "He wasn't that great at all. I think Anderson Silva was tougher than him."

Paul cut a dejected figure as he offered his initial excuses for his first professional loss.

He said: “Honestly, I felt flat. I got sick really bad twice in this camp, injured my arm.

"So, it wasn’t my best performance.

“But I lost. I’m not making excuses, I’m just saying it wasn’t my best performance.

"I felt a little flat.”

Paul is hoping to bag a rematch with Fury, saying of a second fight: "One hundred per cent – let's run it back."

Despite settling their rivalry, Fury is open to running things back with The Problem Child.

When asked about a potential rematch, he said: “One hundred per cent.

“At the end of the day, this was my first main event. The world was watching this fight.

"I have that experience behind me now.

"So when I go into another big dance like this, I’ll have this behind me and I’ll know how to cope with it.

"Having been in the ring with Jake once, I’m pretty sure I can get the stoppage next time.”
