Tyson Fury makes unique argument for Jake Paul being better than Gervonta Davis at certain aspects of boxing 

Jake Paul has garnered much criticism since he entered the world of combat sports.

While some of it may be warranted, 'The Problem Child' has undeniably brought a new group of fans to the sport, and some have credited Paul with helping to revive the sport.

Tyson Fury recently came out in support of the influencer-turned-boxer. He made an argument that he was better at certain aspects of the 'sweet science' than undefeated former world champion Gervonta Davis.

'Tank' is one of the most talented fighters in the sport right now, and Fury's comments may raise the eyebrows of some fans.

The WBC champion was recently interviewed by The Stomping Ground, where he said this:

"Who's better, 'Tank' Davis or Jake Paul? Immediately, a normal layman would say, 'Oh, 'Tank' Davis is better.' But better at what? Is he better at selling tickets? Is he better at selling stadiums out? Is he better at creating controversy? Is he better at getting followed on Instagram? Is he better at putting more eyeballs on boxing? Is he better than [Paul] at that? The answer would be no."

He continued:

"But is he better than [Paul] in a fight? You have to break it down. You know what I mean? I think YouTuber boxing has brought a lot to the game. It's changed it."
