Jake Paul & Tommy Fury both made weight earlier today as they get ready for their ESPN+ PPV on Sunday Afternoon.
We are officially one step closer to the event that will be watched from all over the world. Jake Paul and Tommy Fury made the contracted weight which means we are just hours away from finally getting the matchup that has been more than a year in the making. Paul came in at 183.6 pounds, while Fury weighed 184.5 pounds. Afterward, there was a ton of pleasantries being exchanged between the two fighters as they continued to hype up their much-anticipated event.
Prior to the weigh-in, both men arrived in style with their respective teams. Fury came with his brother Tyson and Father John, while Paul arrived with his brother Logan. Many celebrities are in Saudi Arabia for this matchup, including Mike Tyson and undisputed lightweight champion Devin Haney.
Both men are ready for their eight-round matchup, and this fight’s result will determine how they move forward with their careers. If Paul wins convincingly, a fight against KSI in December will be a blockbuster event. However, if Fury wins, the question is where Paul will take his career. Some questions will be answered Sunday afternoon, but one thing is for sure, whether you like it or not, this will be the most talked about event on the internet this weekend.
