Time Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury: When do the ring walks start for the UK and US fights?

Jake Paul and Tommy Fury are set to fight this month after two failed attempts to arrange a boxing match between them.

YouTuber Paul and Fury, half-brother of heavyweight champ Tyson, were supposed to face off for the first time in 2021, but Fury pulled out due to injury and illness.

Then, last August, travel problems prevented the 23-year-old Brit from traveling to the US to take on 26-year-old American Paul.

Now, however, they are finally facing each other, as Saudi Arabia hosts the long-awaited contest.
