Jake Paul has aired his frustration with Tommy Fury after the Brit failed to attend their scheduled press conference in Saudi Arabia for what is perceived to be a "private matter".
'TNT' has caused a lot of controversy over the past couple of years after being forced to pull out of two bouts against the YouTube sensation for a number of reasons. Many are expecting the matchup to come to fruition this time around, but the UK reality star continues to put doubt in fans' minds.
When asked if he was frustrated with Tommy Fury's no-show at the press conference, Jake Paul labeled his opponent "unprofessional" and insisted that he's "not a serious fighter" as the proposed boxing clash edges closer.
"I'm used to his behavior at this point. He's unprofessional, he's a flake, he's not a serious businessman, he's not a serious fighter... It's disrespectful. There's some of the biggest names in boxing, some of the biggest promoters in the world, some of the most influential people in the world, one of the greatest countries in the world, and he doesn't want to show up 'cause of a private matter. We all have private matters... It just shows me that he's scared."
