Tommy Fury called out Jake Paul after beating Daniel Bocianski on points during the Tyson Fury-Dillian Whyte undercard from Wembley Stadium in London on Saturday.

Specifically, Fury called Paul, an American YouTuber and social media personality who has gone 5-0 during his professional boxing career, a "bum" multiple times in a post-fight interview.

I asked <a href="https://twitter.com/jakepaul?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@jakepaul</a> what he thought of <a href="https://twitter.com/tommytntfury?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@tommytntfury</a>’s victory:<br><br>“Congrats on beating a 10-1 fighter. But that stadium was empty. When I fight the stadium is full. When Tommy fights no one gives a fuck. And that’s in his home country. Let’s see how Anderson Silva’s event does.”

Fury was scheduled to fight Jake Paul on Dec. 18 but he pulled out of the bout with a bacterial chest infection and a broken rib.

Former UFC champion Tyron Woodley took Fury's place and lost for the second time to Paul, who won via sixth-round knockout.

The 22-year-old Fury appears ready for his shot at Paul, though, based on his comments.

Fury, who is the younger half-brother of Tyson Fury, is 8-0 lifetime with four knockouts.
