2021 will end in a couple of months, but the last few weeks of the year will be filled with high-profile boxing bouts. Recently, Jake Paul announced his fight with Tommy Fury and he sent the entire fight fraternity into a frenzy.

This is because the YouTuber turned boxer will face a pro-boxer for the very first time in his boxing stint. As a result, the hype behind this contest is insane and many boxing purists and fans are pouring in their reactions to this matchup.

Fury, in this fight, will have an edge over Paul as he has only shared the ring with professional boxers. However, the pressure on ‘TNT is immense because if he loses to a novice like Paul, his career could hit a massive wall.
