CLEVELAND, OHIO: Jake Paul revealed a new facet of his character when he gave a present to Tommy Fury's baby, Bambi. This was quite a change for "The Problem Child," who often calls out opponents and picks up fights with them.
Fury, a prominent professional boxer and reality TV personality, welcomed his daughter with his fiancee, Molly-Mae Hague, on January 23. In what was said to be an odd move, Paul had leaked the information about Bambi's birth even before the parents, deepening his rift with Fury.
