On February 26th, Jake Paul's toughest battle yet awaits on FITE, the only place to broadcast every one of his boxing matches - in Europe, Asia, Canada, Brazil and India.

On February 26th, Jake “The Problem Child” Paul and Tommy Fury will finally face off in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. FITE is proud to present the bout across much of Europe and Asia, as well as in Brazil, Canada and India.

Paul and Tommy Fury will go head-to-head in an 8-round matchup at 185 pounds.

His opponent, Tommy Fury - brother of heavyweight champion Tyson Fury - has a flawless 8 wins out of 8 bouts so far and boasts more years of experience than his adversary.

"The moment of truth has finally arrived," Jake Paul said in a statement. "On Feb. 26th, I will get in the ring with a 'real boxer,' an 8-0 fighter from a storied fighting family and show the world the truth about who Jake Paul, the boxer really is."

Skill Challenge Entertainment Enterprises of Saudi Arabia and Paul's Most Valuable Promotions will join forces to produce the Paul vs. Fury card, in association with Fury promoter Queensberry Promotions and Top Rank.

The co-main event will see Sweden's former two-weight world champion, Badou Jack, face off against WBC cruiserweight champion Ilunga Makabu of Congo and South Africa.

“The whole world loves boxing, and we’ve seen fans tune in for Jake Paul again and again since we’ve carried every single PPV fight of his.” said Michael Weber, COO of FITE. “MVP has been an incredible partner to work with at every step of our relationship. And here's what I know: anyone who still questions that Jake has changed the game will get their answers at this event.”

FITE has been proud to present all of Jake’s professional boxing career, way back to his fight against AnEsonGib, against Nate Robinson on the epic first Triller Fight Club card including Mike Tyson, plus the Ben Askren, Anderson Silva, and two Tyron Woodley fights.

FITE will showcase the event across Europe, with major markets such as Germany, Scandinavia, Italy, and Spain all taking part (France has not been included). For boxing fans in the UK, the fight will air on BT Sport Box Office.
