Jake Paul and Tommy Fury pushed each other during a fiery face-off to promote their grudge match-up.
Paul and Fury have held a long-term feud since the British star claimed he could end the short boxing career of the YouTube star, with the pair having already arranged two fights which later collapsed. However despite initial reluctance from the 'Problem Child' a fresh agreement has been reached with the fighters set to touch gloves on February 26 in a Saudi Arabia clash.
At today's world title clash between Artur Beterbiev and Anthony Yarde, the pair were in London to promote the fight being signed on Fury's promoter Frank Warren's show. The pair were brought into the ring and came face-to-face for the latest time having already been embroiled in a lengthy and heated verbal battle in Dubai last November.
And tensions were high at today's face-off, with Paul and Fury being separated by security after going nose-to-nose in the centre of the ring. The pair pushed each other and security stepped in to intervene and calm down events in the ring, before they were eventually brought back together to come face-to-face again.
Paul and Fury first became rivals following the American's first win over Tyron Woodley, where the Briton also featured on the card and confronted his rival backstage following the fights. A fight has failed to materialise at two previous attempts with Fury first forced to withdraw with a broken rib before being prevented from travelling to the US for the second scheduled fight last August.

It could be a significant blow to either fighter's career if they are to taste defeat in the huge grudge match. And Fury's dad John is confident that his son will have his hand raised but will secure a win inside the distance. He said: Do I see Jake Paul as a threat in this fight? No, absolutely not I am seeing him as a heavy bag with arms that is going to get knocked out.
"We will see what he is made of but unless I see a totally different man come to the ring, he doesn't have a prayer. He is messing with a live young strong man who has a big point to prove. One is a natural fighter that can dig deep, we have had some wars in the gym with world-class men and he is pleasing to watch.
"We get the chance to close that big mouth of Jake Paul. He is getting a real good hiding. We are not looking to win on points. We are away from home and I believe he is a co-promoter so we are looking to knock him out."
