Tommy Fury rejected Jake Paul's final rematch offer in Birmingham in August.

Nakisa Bidarian said it was the last deal MVP would give the Love Island star.

Fury beat Paul by split-decision in 2023 and has fought only twice since, most recently in June.

Jake Paul has fought seven times since his loss, winning six but suffered a broken jaw against Anthony Joshua.

Tommy Fury has rejected Jake Paul's final "life-changing" proposal to fight again.

Fury handed the American YouTuber-turned-boxer his first loss by split-decision in 2023.

Over the past three years the two have negotiated a possible rematch without reaching an agreement.

Nakisa Bidarian, who co-founded Most Valuable Promotions with Paul in 2021, said Fury declined a rematch offer in August in Birmingham.

Speaking before MVPW 7 on November 8, Bidarian added it was the last offer the 2019 Love Island star would receive from them.

He told SunSport: "Tommy Fury, to be unequivocally clear, he got his last offer from us in Birmingham when we were there for our last MVPW event with Sky."

"And the only way Jake Paul's ever going to face Tommy Fury is if Tommy Fury shows up with a guarantee that's appropriate for Jake Paul.

We are done giving that guy life-changing opportunities and him finding excuses on why not to do it."

Fury, 27, defeated Paul's YouTube rival KSI, 33, eight months after their celebrity grudge match in Saudi Arabia and later had hand surgery.

The TV personality, engaged to Molly-Mae Hague and father of two, has only fought twice since, most recently against strongman Eddie Hall in June.

Paul, 29, has fought seven times since his loss to Fury, winning six.

He was knocked out and suffered a broken jaw in his last bout against two-time heavyweight world champion Anthony Joshua, 37, in December.

Fury's father and manager John previously said his son would fight in December, ruling out a rematch with Paul until next year.

Bidarian commented: "Listen, Tyson Fury is extremely successful. He's had a tremendous career. Who's his advisor? Who's his manager? I don't think it's John Fury. Shout out to Spencer Brown, he's a great guy."
