After numerous failed attempts, it looks like Jake Paul vs. Tommy Fury is a done deal. The highly anticipated boxing bout is scheduled for February 26 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

'The Problem Child' broke the news of the pay-per-view event earlier today on his Instagram handle. However, it looks like Paul expects the Furys to honor a certain promise if he tramples Tommy Fury at the upcoming event.

During numerous interviews in the lead-up to the fight, Tommy's fafter, John Fury, had mentioned that he would retire his son if he fails to knock out the YouTuber. Unsurprisingly, the younger Paul brother aims to cash in on this promise.

In his latest Instagram post, 'The Problem Child' announced that he would be visiting London tomorrow to shake hands on that promise:

"After multiple failed attempts to get Tommy Fury in the ring, the moment of truth has finally arrived... Tyson Fury has promised he and Papa John will make Tommy retire from boxing and change his last name forever if he can’t beat the YouTuber. Saturday (tomorrow) I’m coming to London to look at all three Fury’s in the eye and shake on that promise."

This is the third time a match between the duo is being set up. On the prior two occasions, a rib injury and visa complications forced the British boxer out of the event.

Both fighters are currently undefeated in their careers with Paul 6-0 as a pro, while 'TNT' holds a record of 8-0.


Jake Paul vs. Tommy Fury betting odds

As per odds makers, it looks like YouTuber turned pro boxer, Jake Paul has the upper hand against WBC heavyweight Tyson Fury's younger brother, Tommy Fury, for their upcoming boxing match.

The projected betting odds by SBD have pegged 'The Problem Child' as the -225 favorite against 'TNT', the +185 underdog for the matchup, and for good reason.

Jake Paul holds high-profile wins against the likes of former long-reigning middleweight champion Anderson Silva, former welterweight kingpin Tyron Woodley and multi-promotional MMA champion Ben Askren.

In comparison, 'TNT' has few notable names on his resume. Most of his wins came against less-than-elite opposition. Fury's only decent win came against Polish boxer Daniel Bocianski, who had a record of 10-1 while facing the Brit.
