TOMMY FURY is “ripped and ready” as he vowed to knock out Jake Paul and “get him out of the sport”.
Fury is finally set to face Paul on February 26, after twice being forced out of the grudge match before due to injury and US visa issues.
But he insisted there will be no bumps in the road after rescheduling again and warned it is the end of the line for his boxing rival.
Fury told MMA Fighting: “Things have got in the way the previous two times. Things well out of my control.
“A broke rib and everything else that was wrong with the first fight. The second fight, denied entry into the US.
“Third fight, here we are. Three times is a charm and we’re seeing that. We’re two weeks out.

“I’m ripped, I’m ready, I’m fit, I’m strong and I’ve got more in the tank than what it takes to beat Jake Paul. Don’t worry about that.”
Paul, 26, blasted Fury, 23, for failing to show up to their kick-off press conference in Saudi Arabia.
The YouTuber-turned 6-0 boxer made the trip from Dubai – where he has been training – to Riyadh to sell the pay-per-view.
Fury instead remained in Bolton – where he has been in camp – and argued preparation is more important than promotion.

He said: “I don’t know if he’s trying to play mind games or anything but that’s definitely not how it works.
“One man’s flying all over the globe, trying to get in the glitz and glamour, press conferences, whatever else, and one man’s in the gym training to annihilate this man.
“So I think the proof is in the pudding. You can see who the professional athlete is. I’m not interested in press conferences.
“I’m interested in completing my camp, which has been the best camp of my career and I’m ready to KO this man and get him out of the sport.”
