This will no doubt be Paul’s biggest test in the boxing ring to date as he is taking on a man with boxing and fighting blood in him, Tommy Fury.
Fury is currently undefeated in his professional boxing career holding a record of seven wins and 0 losses with four of those wins coming by KO.
Paul is 4-0 in the ring and holds wins over MMA veterans such as Ben Askren and most recently Tyron Woodley.
To the eye, going off the pair’s last fights, it seems like it could be a fairly even contest.
Who do you think will win this fight?
