YouTuber, turned boxer, Jake Paul has let rip at heavyweight champion Tyson Fury and his team after a rather cringe call out.

Fury has been making headlines after rival Deontay Wilder interrupted plans for a $190 million fight with Anthony Joshua in the 'Battle of Britain'.

Only days after announcing the date to fight Joshua, Wilder won an arbitration case in an attempt to force a trilogy fight with Fury.

While the boxing world is waiting to see the outcome of the debacle at the top of the heavyweight division, Fury turned his attention to helping his younger 22-year-old brother, Tommy.

Tommy Fury and Paul have been involved a social media slinging match for some time, but Tyson Fury and surprise guest, NBA legend Shaquille O'Neal, joined in on the party to call out the YouTuber.

But the video was slammed by Paul, who labelled the call out 'embarrassing'.

“I don’t know if you guys just watched that video but the desperation is seeping through the pores of the Fury family,” Paul said.

“It’s quite embarrassing. The heavyweight champion of the world is on Instagram talking about Jake Paul, begging me to fight his brother.

“Listen Tommy, focus on your fight that’s in a couple of weeks that nobody even knows about by the way. This right here, this clip will be the biggest promotion for your whole entire fight.

“Find an opponent — you’re literally picking someone to fight you in three weeks who hasn’t even been training. You don’t even have an opponent who is going to go through a real camp.

“Fight someone real. Do a real pay-per-view and then maybe we can chat. The last guy you fought was 0-and-9. The people you’ve fought total have a combined record of 15 wins and 250 losses.

“You come looking for me in Miami to try and find me in a gym. You know damn well I’m not in Miami, I’m in Puerto Rico. If you want to pull up here I will gladly beat the f*** out of you.

“Until then just leaves Shaq out of this. I already knocked out an NBA player so leave Shaq out of this is.

“You guys are desperate. Tommy, you fight for $100,000. You have some ladders to climb to get on to my level unfortunately my friend.

“I’m not talking about this anymore. Peace out, f*** you guys.”

Paul takes dig at Fury over girlfriend

But Paul wasn't done.

He eventually hit back with another dig, but this time dragged Tommt Fury's girlfriend, Molly-Mae Hague, in to the conversation.

“One last thing, Tommy,” Paul said.

“You should be more worried about your girl sliding into a bunch of dudes’ DMs then you should be about fighting me.”

He accompanied the retort with a screenshot he claimed was from 2018, which claimed to show Hague messaging Paul.

However, Hague later took to social media to claim the picture was photoshopped.

Fury rose to celebrity status after his stint on Love Island, before focusing on his boxing career.

He is currently 5-0 and is set to fight on June 5 in England.
