      But one fight between former NBA and NFL stars Deron Williams and Frank Gore has been announced.
      The pair will clash in a four-round heavyweight bout.

      What has been said?
      Jake Paul: “It’s finally official. Timothy had no choice but to sign the contract so he could finally pay his bar tabs, afford a shirt for the club, and stop living off Molly.
      “December 18 in Tampa Bay I’m changing this w***er’s name to Tommy Fumbles and celebrating with Tom Brady.
      “Pucker up Timmy… it’s time to kiss your last name and your family’s boxing legacy goodbye.”
      Tommy Fury: “This is an easy fight for me. A real easy fight. I’ve been doing this job since I was 7.
      “He’s not a boxer. He’s gonna see that when we fight.
      “I will end his boxing career. There’s no more Jake Paul after we fight. That’s it.” More
