Jake Paul and Tommy Fury will settle their ongoing feud inside the ring after a boxing bout between the pair was confirmed for December 18.
YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul is unbeaten from four professional fights, although he is yet to face a fighter with any boxing experience. His debut fight was against fellow YouTuber Ali Eson Gib, his second against retired basketball player Nate Robinson, and the two subsequent bouts were contested with MMA fighters Ben Askren and Tyron Woodley.
Fury, meanwhile, holds a perfect professional record from seven fights but is yet to face any credible opponents. His last bout, an unimpressive points win after four rounds, was against MMA fighter Anthony Taylor on Paul's undercard when the American beat Woodley on a split decision.
Fury is the younger half-brother of WBC heavyweight world champion Tyson Fury.
"Pucker up Timmy, it's time to kiss ur last name and ur family's boxing legacy goodbye," Paul, 24, wrote on Twitter.
"Time to do what should've been done to you a long time ago … You're getting knocked spark out," replied Fury, 22.
The fight will take place in Tampa on December 18 and be an eight-round bout with the weight set at 13st 10lb (87.1kg, 192lbs).
Earlier this month, Fury's father John Fury vowed to retire his son from boxing if he is unable to beat Paul.
"I see Tommy splattering Jake Paul all over the ring, within four to five rounds," Fury said on the True Geordie Podcast. "If he doesn't, it's over for him. He knows that. No pressure Tommy lad, but let me tell you, you will be called Tommy Fumbles as well... if it's a close fight, Tommy's retired."

Why are asylum seekers being housed in hotels?
The number of asylum applications in the UK has reached a new record high, driven by those illegally entering the country in small boats crossing the English Channel.
A total of 111,084 people applied for asylum in the UK in the year to June 2025, the highest number for any 12-month period since current records began in 2001.
Asylum seekers and their families can be housed in temporary accommodation while their claim is assessed.
The Home Office provides the accommodation, meaning asylum seekers cannot choose where they live.
When there is not enough housing, the Home Office can move people to hotels or large sites like former military bases.

'Worse than a prison sentence'
Marie Byrne, a counsellor who volunteers at the UAE government's mental health crisis helpline, said the ordeal the crew had been through would take time to overcome.
“It was worse than a prison sentence, where at least someone can deal with a set amount of time incarcerated," she said.
“They were living in perpetual mystery as to how their futures would pan out, and what that would be.
“Because of coronavirus, the world is very different now to the one they left, that will also have an impact.
“It will not fully register until they are on dry land. Some have not seen their young children grow up while others will have to rebuild relationships.
“It will be a challenge mentally, and to find other work to support their families as they have been out of circulation for so long. Hopefully they will get the care they need when they get home.”
