Bitter rivals Jake Paul and Tommy Fury have agreed to an all or nothing bet ahead of their grudge fight.
YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul and Love Island star Fury are scheduled to meet over eight rounds in Saudi Arabia this Sunday after two previous bookings between them have been cancelled. The bitter rivals took part in an intense press conference in Riyadh on Thursday evening and had to be separated after they almost came to blows on stage.
Their scuffle came just moments after Paul issued a pre-fight bet that would see Fury walk away with double his prize money if he wins, whilst Paul would take all of his rival's purse if he were to triumph. "I think we make a deal then since you're so confident," Paul said. "If you win, I'll pay you double what I'm paying you already. If I win I take everything that I'm paying you, deal or no deal since you're so confident? Deal or no deal? I want to shake on it, I just want to shake your hand."
Fury took a sip of water and remained coy whilst Paul laid out the challenge, but things got heated when Paul stood up out of his seat. "Why are you going to stand up like you want to do something? Sit back down, sit back down" Fury said. "What are you going to do." Fury's dad John then agreed to Paul's bet on his son's behalf by saying: "You've dealt, you've got a deal. All or nothing, you've got it."
Paul and Fury then agreed to the pre-fight bet by shaking hands and had to be separated just moments later after pushing each other. Fury labelled Paul a "s***house" and "b****" before telling him to "put his money where his mouth is". Paul showed that he wasn't messing around by claiming that his lawyer already had the pre-fight bet in writing to issue to Fury and his team.

Fury's dad John put pressure on his son by insisting that he doesn't deserve to be paid if he loses to Paul, something that Fury agreed on by replying "amen". Paul mocked Fury for allowing his dad to accept the pre-fight bet before him, also telling the Brit that his dad can't "hold his hand" come Sunday night.
"Your dad is more confident than you. You realise that they can't be in the ring," Paul said. "You realise that Tyson can't be in the ring with you," Paul said. "You need your dad to hold your hand the whole entire time. When your dad said deal you looked back at him like 'Why did you do that Dad?'. He can't hold your hand in the ring."
