Bas Rutten offers to corner Tommy Fury vs. Jake Paul

Jake Paul is supposed to be boxing Tommy Fury on August 24 at New York’s Madison Square Garden. However, that bout is now under threat.

Fury was stopped from boarding a flight to the US yesterday. That might indicate that Fury is subject to a travel ban imposed by the US government because of alleged links to accused Irish drug cartel boss Daniel Kinahan.

Fury’s older brother, Tyson Fury, has reportedly been denied entry to the US on two occasions ever since the US imposed sanctions against Kinahan.

Kinahan founded MTK Global, which used to represent Tyson Fury (and many other top boxers and MMA fighters) before it folded in May.
