“I told him his brother is going to get knocked out and then he goes, ‘As long as he’s getting paid.'”

Tommy, 23, is finally set to meet Paul, 26, in the ring having pulled out twice before amid injury and US visa issues in the past.

And heavyweight champion Tyson, 34, has publicly stated he can stay in the Middle East and vacate their famous fighting surname if he loses.
