In the highly anticipated bout between two of boxing’s hottest young prospects, Fury came out on top and confirmed that if Paul decided to trigger the clause for a second fight, he would accept.
“For the past two-and-half years, this is all that’s consumed my life. Tonight I made my own legacy – I am Tommy Fury.
“I had a dream I would win, people doubted me, but everyone can take note now.
“I had the world on me, pressure on my shoulders and I came through. This is a world title fight to me, this is my destiny, my fate.
“This is my first main event. If he wants a rematch, bring it on!
“Jake Paul took some good shots – he’s a far better boxer than I thought he was.”

Jake Paul confirmed in the ring that he will trigger a rematch clause in his contract and once again meet Tommy Fury for a second showdown.
A potential second fight has been rumoured to take place in the UK this summer, with Fury earning the home advantage after a splendid display in Saudi Arabia.
“I felt flat – I got sick really bad twice in this camp, injured my arm. This wasn’t my best performance, but that’s no excuse.
“Don’t judge me by my wins, I’ll come back stronger.”
On rematch clause, he said: “100%. Let’s run it back.”
Tommy Fury will now earn a WBC world ranking, but for now the 23-year-old’s focus is getting home to the UK and spending time with his wife and newborn baby.
