YouTube star Jake Paul admits Tommy Fury fight is his toughest test yet

Jake Paul has admitted that fighting Tommy Fury will be a tougher test than any other in his young boxing career.

The YouTube star turned professional in 2020 after just one white-collar bout, while Fury had a brief amateur career and a number of fights before his rival's debut. Tommy is the younger brother of world heavyweight champion Tyson and the son of coach and former fighter John.

Paul, 25, and Fury, 23, finally inked terms for their bout on Thursday and it will take place on August 6 at Madison Square Garden in New York City. There were concerns on the Brit's end about drug testing as well as separate travel bans stopping his brother and father from coming to America to corner him.
