Informed sources close to the situation say that the American YouTuber will return to the ring on February 25 in Saudi Arabia, and his opponent will be Tommy Fury. Paul and Fury were previously scheduled to fight twice, but the Briton pulled out of the fight both times, first due to injury and then due to problems with entering the United States.
Last October, Jake Paul chalked up his sixth professional boxing win with a unanimous decision over former UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva. The YouTuber also has early victories over former ONE and Bellator champion Ben Askren and former UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley.
Tommy Fury, who is the brother of world heavyweight boxing champion Tyson Fury, scored his eighth pro win last April with a decision win over Daniel Bocianski. Like the American blogger, the Briton has not suffered a single defeat.
