All You Need To Know About Jake Paul V.S. Tommy Fury Fight


For Jake Paul and Tommy Fury, it's the third time the charm when they finally square off in a boxing ring. On February 26, the YouTuber and the Boxer will compete for the ultimate bragging rights. This time, the competition should be fairly level.


The fight between Paul and Fury will happen in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The bout will be aired on BT Sport Box Office and ESPN+ PPV. Top Rank President Todd duBoef highlighted that Jake Paul and Tommy Fury have fan bases that go well beyond the boxing community. He also stated that he's happy to work with MVP and distribute this event on pay-per-view in the U.S., including ESPN+ PPV as the exclusive digital channel.


Jake Paul


Paul has defeated AnEsonGib, Nate Robinson, Ben Askren, and Tyron Woodley twice, giving him a perfect boxing record of 6-0. "The Problem Child" defeated MMA veteran Anderson Silva in his most recent contest in October by a unanimous decision. The 26-year-old was scheduled to fight Hasim Rahman Jr. in August, but the bout was canceled due to Rahman's weight problems.


The time for truth has finally come, Paul stated. "On February 26th, I will enter the ring with a genuine boxer,' a fighter who is 8-0 and comes from a legendary fighting family, and I will reveal to the world the real Jake Paul, the boxer."


Tommy Fury 


A Love Island UK contestant named Fury 2018 saw the professional debut of alum. Daniel Bocianski was his opponent in April, and he won. He fought Rolly Lambert in a scoreless contest in November. Tommy Fury, the half-brother of WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, was originally scheduled to face Paul Bamba, but a weight issue necessitated a rematch.


Years have gone into planning this battle. It was planned for Paul and Fury to square off twice. In December 2021, Fury withdrew from a fight with Paul due to a rib injury. The bout between the two was then set for August 2022. The fight had to be postponed one more time due to Fury's visa problems. He was refused permission to enter the country. His ESTA (Electronic System for Travel Authority) paperwork was the problem.
