The American 24-year-old also claimed that his British counterpart 'only boxes because his dad told him to' - John Fury, ex-boxer.
Jake Paul says he's not afraid of Tommy Fury, his rival
They are likely to exchange words when Fury takes on American Anthony Taylor on Paul’s undercard on August 29.
Paul's fight with UFC legend Tyron Woodley will be the main event in Cleveland. This is also the fourth professional boxing match for the YouTuber.
Fury and Paul are expected to win their fights, setting up a major celebrity clash in the near future.
Paul shared his thoughts with Sky Sports about a possible Fury fight: "He comes out of a legendary background and family name, and the social media.
"I don’t know how he became famous. He probably did reality shows.
It could lead to a path that sees Tommy Fury versus Jake Paul.
PAUL V. FURY
Since Paul shared a screen shot of a message from Fury's girlfriend Molly Mae Hague, the two fighters have been exchanging messages.
According to an Instagram message, October 2018, it reads: "Might be Coming to America Later in the Year and have always been a Fan of Your Videos."
"Maybe you could show me around?"
Molly-Mae denies the message and tweets: "Times must have been hard when you're trying to fake a DM... Photoshop scary."
After meeting on Love Island 2019, Fury and Molly-Mae began their relationship.
TOMMY FURY -OUS
British boxer Tyson Fury's brother was not pleased that Paul had brought his girlfriend along to their battle of words.
Sky Sports quoted him as saying: "I am thick-skinned. He said: "I'm a professional swimmer.
"These boys aren't. These boys are addicted to the internet and make a living playing games.
"I fight hard to make a living. My fists will do all the talking. He will be rewarded for every negative thing he says.
"I will smash every bone in his head. It's not okay to bring your loved ones along. It's a fight. They have nothing to do with it, so they should be left out.
Paul, however, is not concerned. He said: "It seems like someone gave him a script to read, 'I'm gonna break every bone in His face!'
"He's got nothing to say, buddy. This isn’t sixth grade. This is the fight business.
He boxes because his father told him to. He lacks the real heart and fight within him.
He is doing it because his brother did it. He sees it as a way of making some money.
"If we ever get in the ring, he'll be exposed... I'm the real deal. People will see that."
