Jake Paul to fight Tommy Fury in August as grudge bout is officially rescheduled

Jake Paul will face Tommy Fury on August 6 at Madison Square Garden in a rescheduling of their grudge match.

Paul and Fury were supposed to fight on December 18 at the Amalie Arena in Tampa, Florida, but the bout was cancelled when the Love Island star was forced to pull out with a broken rib. Now, they ave been able to come to a deal for a newly-signed date, with the Brit travelling to America for the second time in his professional career.

Fury is the brother of world heavyweight champion Tyson, and the first opponent that Paul will have faced who had a winning record going into their contest. He recently took a step-up in opposition to take on 10-1 Daniel Bocianski and will prove the toughest test of the YouTuber's mettle thus far.
