The Jake Paul vs. Tommy Fury boxing match is officially set for Dec. 18 in Tampa, FL.

It took a while for the two sides to come to terms on a deal, but Jake Paul and Tommy Fury will square off in a boxing pay-per-view to end what has been an eventful year in the sport.

Paul vs. Fury is set for Dec. 18 in Tampa, FL, at Amalie Arena, and will be broadcast on Showtime PPV. Ariel Helwani was among the first to report the news of the booking.

The fight itself will take place at 192 pounds over eight rounds. Both Paul and Fury will enter the fight as undefeated boxers after winning earlier this year.

Paul earned the biggest win of his young boxing career over former UFC champion Tyron Woodley in Aug., earning a split decision victory. On that same card, Fury defeated former Bellator fighter Anthony Taylor in a four-round bout.

In addition to Paul vs. Fury, Amanda Serrano will also make her return to the ring against a to-be-determined opponent. Serrano is widely regarded as one of the best boxers in the world with a record of 41-1-1. She also earned a win on the Paul vs. Woodley card.

Before his win over Woodley, Paul earned three straight knockout wins over former UFC welterweight Ben Askren, former NBA star Nate Robinson and fellow YouTuber Ali Eson Gib.

Tommy is the half-brother of heavyweight boxing champion Tyson Fury, who recently defeated Deontay Wilder in their trilogy. Tommy holds a professional record of 8-0 with four wins by knockout.

The bad blood is real between Paul and Fury, who nearly got into a brawl following their last fights. The buildup to this boxing match is just getting started.
