With Fury being banned in the United States due to his links to drug trafficking, and with Jake Paul refusing to fight in England, the fight ended up taking place in Saudi Arabia. This will be the biggest challenge facing the American social media personality.

So far, Paul has a record of six victories in the same number of fights he has had. However, it is the first time he will face a professional boxer, although he promises that he will demonstrate his qualities in the ring.
