PROMOTER Eddie Hearn put pressure on Tommy Fury by telling him to go to a desert island if Jake Paul beats him.
After months of back and forth on social media, the pair will finally face off on December 18.
For the fight, Tommy will be aided by Tyson, the heavyweight champion and brother
After John Fury and Tyson claimed that Tommy would win, Hearn also took an interest in the situation.
He declared Tommy, 22 years old, should 'never be beat by Paul,' 24.
Hearn spoke out about the highly anticipated clash via talkSPORT's Michael Benson. Hearn stated: "Logic would tell a pro boxer who was Tyson Fury’s brother that he should never lose to Jake Paul."
"If Tommy loses, he could go to a desert Island and stay there for the rest of his life. It would be embarrassing.
Hearn also addressed claims that Paul wasn't worthy of fighting Fury.
The promoter stated that he didn't agree to all the comments. "It's unfair they're making all this money and you have this other guy who's grinding and not getting the opportunity. He ain’t good enough, and he hasn't built a fanbase as Jake Paul. So tough s ***."
Tommy's halfbrother Tyson claimed that he would change Tommy’s last name if Paul fails to beat him.
Tyson stated that "If Tommy cannot splatter Jake Paul", I'll take him out of boxing.
"He has ambitions to be a world champion and beat some YouTube guys.
"His name is Fury. "If he doesn't beat Jake Paul I'll have him change his name."
Fury was challenged by Paul to change Fury's surname for a YEAH if they lose their grudge match.
Tommy's father John said Tyson would fly to Las Vegas to train with his brother in the city where Deontay Wilder was beaten earlier this month by The Gypsy King.
Paul, on the other side, has stated that he will seek the guidance of Hasbulla, a viral social media star.
