Jake Paul reveals HOUR long phone call with Tommy Fury for rematch but fears rival is already making ‘excuses’

JAKE PAUL revealed he spent an hour on the phone negotiating a rematch with Tommy Fury but fears his rival is already making "excuses".

The celebrity boxing pair finally ended two years of feuding in February with Fury emerging a split-decision winner.

But Paul has bounced back with two wins since, on points against ex-UFC star Nate Diaz, 38, and a knockout of boxer Andre August, 36.

And he revealed after his uppercut KO of August that talks with Fury are back underway - but money could prove an obstacle.

Paul, 26, said on his : "We had calls with him, had an hour long call with him and the whole entire thing was just kind of this thing, 'Oh, more money, more money, more money.'

"When he's not getting more money by fighting anybody else and we have an amazing offer out there for him and it's kind of just these excuses after excuses.

"Obviously Tommy already beat me, so people will be like, 'Oh, he already beat you so why wouldn't he do it again?'

"But he sees my skillset advancing, knows he had me at my worst. Two to make it true. I'm here, I'm ready."

Fury, 24, went on to beat Paul's arch rival KSI, 30, in his next bout.

And the build-up proved to also be a bitter one, with KSI even spitting on Fury's dad and coach John.

It leaves John - in charge of his son's career - refusing to entertain a rematch with KSI.

He told , via : "If Jake Paul wants to box Tommy next that wouldn't be a problem.

"If anybody out there wants to box Tommy that's carrying weight, let's talk.

"The only man that's not welcome at the table is not a man, is him. What do you call him? KSI. He is not welcome, not now, not ever. He is done.

"We don't want to do business with a spitter. Too much bad blood, he's an ignorant man and there's no more business, not even for $1trillion with him."
