BOXING rivals Jake Paul and Tommy Fury go head-to-head in Saudi Arabia on Sunday, with the fight worth millions.
The pair were locked in negotiations for months over trying to reschedule a fight which had fallen through twice already.
Fury pulled out of their original date in December 2021 with injury and illness.
And then the Manchester fighter had visa issues while trying to get over the US to promote their second fight, with that bout being called off too.
Paul instead fought Anderson Silva, beating him on points to rack up his sixth win as a professional boxer, while Fury was last in action in an exhibition on the undercard of Floyd Mayweather vs Deji against Rolly Lambert.
The rivals will now clash on Sunday in Saudi Arabia at the third time of asking.
