Jake Paul vs. Tommy Fury purse, salaries: How much money will they make for 2023 boxing fight?
Jake Paul and Tommy Fury have dabbled in trash talking for years. Now they will finally compete in a boxing ring. At least there is hope that the third time will be the stimulus.
There will be YouTubers vs. Boxers on February 26th at Diriyah Arena in Saudi Arabia.
Fury turned pro in 2018 and has won four fights by KO. The Love Island alum has pulled out of the fight twice but is currently in Saudi Arabia preparing for Paul. Fury is ready to risk everything. That means calling it a career if Paul beats him.
“Yes, 100%, yes. Absolutely,” Fury told talkSPORT when asked if he would retire if Paul brought him down. “If I can’t beat Jake Paul, then I don’t belong in the ring.”
