Jake Paul and Tommy Fury are set to enter the squared circle later this weekend on Sunday, February 26th in Diriyah, Saudi Arabia. There has been a lot of anticipation going into the fight, as the two have had a long-running rivalry. Interestingly, the two have been booked to fight on two previous occasions. First in 2021 and then in 2022, however, both of those fights had to be canceled. Since then, ‘The Problem Child has fought Tyron Woodley (rematch) and Anderson Silva. He won both fights.

However, with just a few days remaining for the fight, it is very unlikely that it will be canceled again. Thus, the fans will most certainly be treated with a grudge match between the two.

While there is a lot of pressure for both Jake Paul and Tommy Fury to win the fight, the money involved will certainly help them overlook the defeat of the loser of the fight.

Paul and Fury agree on an all-or-nothing deal

Jake Paul is notorious for making bets against his opponent ahead of his fights. He has previously had bets with his opponents for a knockout. And he has done the same yet again with his upcoming opponent, Tommy Fury.

During a recent press conference for Paul vs. Fury, ‘The Problem Child’ proposed a bet to Tommy Fury. The 26-year-old suggested that if ‘TNT’ was to win the fight, he will receive double what he was guaranteed going into the fight.

However, if Tommy Fury loses the fight, Jake Paul will take away his guaranteed purse. And ‘TNT’ will be left with nothing. Interestingly, Fury seemed to have avoided the proposal. However, his father, John Fury, interrupted and agreed to the deal.
