manchestereveningnews.co.ukOne of the most intriguing boxing events of the year takes place tonight with Tommy Fury facing Jake Paul in Saudi Arabia. There is no love lost between the pair, with their long awaited fight finally taking place after two failed attempts.
Fury withdrew from the first two, with the first being cancelled due to a combination of injury and illness before the second failed to take place with Fury undergoing Visa problems as he tried to travel to the US.
Paul has faced two MMA fighters in the meantime, beating Tyron Woodley and Anderson Silva and will now face a fight against a full-time boxer for the first time.
He was due to face heavyweight Hasim Rahman Jr in place of Fury last summer before the 13-2 American withdrew over contentions regarding their weight agreement.
