Jake Paul’s trainer BJ Flores has told Tommy Fury that he needs to have two pay-per-view main events and prove his worth before a third date with The Problem Child can be booked. The pair were set to face each other on two occasions previously to no avail.The first fight in December was pulled from the card after Fury withdrew from the contest with a rib injury sustained in camp. Then, ahead of their August encounter, the bout fell through again when TNT was denied entry to the United States – where the event was set to take place.Since then, both men have expressed a willingness at attempting to make the fight for a third time. A video of the pair verbally agreeing to a third pursuit over FaceTime was uploaded by Paul’s promotional outfit Most Valuable Promotions. Meanwhile, Tommy’s father John recently revealed that he had a positive conversation with Paul’s manager at the Joe Joyce vs Joseph Parker event last month.However, Paul’s trainer Flores believes Fury needs to do more if he hopes to get another chance at fighting his athlete. Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury has fallen apart twice (Image: Boxing Social/ GETTY)’If I never hear Tommy Fury’s name again, I’ll be just fine. Look, he can go out and fight a pay-per-view, let him go beat somebody and see how many pay-per-views he sells and then go fight another pay-per-view and see how many pay-per-views he sells,’ he told Boxing Social.’Then, after he does maybe two, we’ll circle back around and see where we maybe need to be at. Again, Tommy Fury’s never been in a big pay-per-view fight, never been in a main event fight so it’s kind of apples to oranges, demanding all these things and then pulling out two different times. He really doesn’t deserve it honestly. Go beat some people, go fight some pay-per-views. Show us how many buys and sales you do and then let’s talk.’MORE BOXING NEWS…British boxer Cam Shaw dies at 25 while snorkelling in AustraliaJoshua told to make sacking decision in his camp ahead of comebackFury doubted as Nelson makes telling comment about Paul fight Jake Paul is 5-0 as a professional (Image: GETTY)When asked who needs the fight the most, Flores continued: ‘Jake doesn’t need it at all. Tommy will never make what he’s going to make fighting Jake for the rest of his life because after Jake beats him, he’ll never go back, and he’ll never make that again.’Jake will make that regardless of who he fights, he doesn’t need Tommy at all, so, to me I don’t really care. Like I said, if Tommy’s in the future no problem but if he’s not who cares.’
