JAKE PAUL has been making use of altitude training equipment ahead of his showdown with Tommy Fury.
The YouTuber turned boxer will face the former Love Island star in a grudge match on December 18 in Tampa, Florida.
Fury has been hard at work with heavyweight champ brother Tyson in preparation for his showdown with the former Disney star.
But Paul has also been putting in the hard graft, using an altitude training mask for one of his recent runs on the treadmill.
On Tuesday, he shared footage of Tyson putting Tommy through his paces to his Instagram story with the accompanying caption: “They are working.
The following story update showed a topless Paul running on the treadmill with an altitude mask.
The Problem Child’s accompanying caption read: “But so are we.”
Despite being a 4-0 novice, social media sensation Paul will be the biggest name Fury has fought in his young career.

And the weight of expectation is something Paul believes Fury will crack under.
The American said: “He’s only been put in there with opponents that were meant to lose.
“This is his first real test where his opponent isn’t some guy who is just going to flop over.
“He has no idea what he’s getting himself into.
‘”This is his first time under the big lights, on the big stage, and he’s going to crack under pressure.”
Although he believes Fury will crumble, Paul admits TNT will be the most accomplished boxer he’s faced so far.
He said: “The beautiful thing about this fight is the unknown. Is he actually a Fury, or will we find out that he’s just a half Fury?
“Does he have the heart like his brother, or is he just living in the shadow of his brother.
“The beautiful thing about this fight is stepping into the unknown, because this is also my first time fighting a real boxer, whatever that means?
“He’s undefeated, he’s young, same age, same weight, same height, so it’s really a perfect match-up.
“We’re just going to see who worked harder, who wants it more and who has that dog inside of them.”
