A fight between Jake Paul and Tommy Fury is scheduled to take place in February, according to a recent confirmation made by Ariel Helwani. This comes despite the fact that Jake Paul has recently stated that he will begin his career in mixed martial arts with the PFL.
Jake and Tommy have been rivals for a long time, and although they were supposed to fight each other in the ring a year ago, the fight was canceled because Tommy could not make it to the United States in time. However, the door has opened again for the two unbeaten boxers to have a fight.

In the year 2020, Jake Paul made his debut in the professional boxing circuit. Since then, he has competed in a total of six bouts without suffering a defeat. With a perfect record in the ring and a recent win over Brazilian fighting veteran Anderson Silva, “The Problem Child” has made a name for himself. Earlier this month, Jake Paul embarked on a mixed martial arts career by signing with the PFL.
On the other hand, Tommy Fury made his debut in the professional boxing ring in 2018 at Manchester Arena, where he fought Jevgenijs Andrejevs. His career got off to a great start with a win like that, and over the next four years, he won seven more fights and won all of them. The 23-year-boxing old’s record is 8-0-0, with four of his victories coming via knockout.
Ariel Helwani, an MMA journalist, has broken the good news to boxing fans who have been eagerly awaiting a bout between Jake and Tommy. Even though he has confirmed that the fight will take place on February 25th, the venue is still up in the air; the two countries with the best chance of hosting it are Saudi Arabia and the United Kingdom.
