This wꦑill no doubt be Paul's biggest test in the boxing r▨ing to date as he is taking on a man with boxing and fighting blood in him, Tommy Fury.
Fury is currently undefeated in his professional boxing careeꦍr holding a record of seven wins and 0 losses with four of those wins coming by KO.
Paul is 4-0 in the ring♌ and holds wins o𝔍ver MMA veterans such as Ben Askren and most recently Tyron Woodley.
𒁏To 𓃲the eye, going off the pair's last fights, it seems like it could be a fairly even contest.
Who do you think will win this fight?
