Tyson, 33, tweeted: “Massive congratulations to @tommytntfury on his big big fight news. Living the dream daily. See you soon bro #VegasBabyVegas.”

SunSport were the first to exclusively reveal the celebrity fighting rivals had agreed terms for a Christmas cracker.

YouTube sensation Paul, 24, is 4-0 in his career and most recently beat ex-UFC champion Tyron Woodley, 39, in August.

It followed from knockout wins over online rival ‘AnEsonGib’, ex-NBA player Nate Robinson and retired UFC welterweight Ben Askren, both 37.

Paul, 22, meanwhile is 7-0 since his 2018 debut and recently beat Paul’s sparring partner Anthony Taylor, 32, the night Woodley lost.

The 2019 Love Island star is trained by his dad John, but due to a prior criminal conviction, the coach is unable to travel to America.


But Tyson will be in his brother’s corner and provide help in the training camp leading up to the fight.

John told BT Sport: “Tyson’s going to be in his corner that night. I think Tyson’s flying out there in a few weeks to help him out.

“Whatever desire he’s missing, Tyson will put there, I’m sure of that.

“Tyson will sort his head out so I’m looking for a Tommy win in explosive fashion – the end of Jake Paul.”

With the family reputation on the line, Tommy will surely be grateful to have the experience and knowledge of Tyson alongside him.”
