Jake Paul and Tommy Fury agree drug testing for one month before grudge fight

Jake Paul and Tommy Fury have both signed up for drug testing ahead of their meeting in Saudi Arabia next month.

The boxing rivals have twice agreed to fight before, but they were both cancelled due to issues on the Brit's end. However, they now seem to be set to meet on February 26 in Riyadh after agreeing to what will be their third confirmed fight which Paul says has ridded his opponent of any excuses.

And VADA have confirmed that the pair began drug testing for the bout last week after fully finalising the deal for their meeting. There had been controversy around the issue before, with the Fury family questioning if Paul would be willing to do random testing for their doomed bouts in Florida and New York.
