However, Fury, the younger brother to WBC champion Tyson will make his announcement to the US audience in the early morning hours.
Showtime will broadcast the event Stateside, while BT will pick up the rights for Britain - both via their PPV platforms.
Fury meets Anthony Taylor, MMA star and sparring partner of Paul - before the social media star headlines this evening at PS16.95.
The TV and promotional link-up opens the door to a PPV fight that will bring in millions between the celeb couple.
Fury, 22 years old, said that it was a huge show and that he is very happy to be a part of it.
"Now, it's about finding my own way in front a new audience that isn't the one we usually get.
"I'm there to do one job, one job only. That is to win and look good while doing it."
"I want America to be impressed and my name heard more.
"I can see the excitement surrounding this fight and I can't get enough of it.
"I saw Tyson fights for weeks as a little boy and I was able to see everything.
"Now it's my turn. I'll be there in the limelight, and it will be my fight-week.
Paul, who is now 3-0 by knockout, was interested in Fury for his next fight but was not convinced by his profile across the pond.
However, a win by the Love Island star in 2019 against Taylor, 32 could set them up for their next fight.
Frank Warren, promoter, stated that "If they want to fight and Tommy does the business there, there's no place else to go."
"You cannot keep calling people out and not doing something about it.
"It's something Tommy wants desperately and we'd love to see it. I won't stand in his way even though I've made many comments about YouTubers over the years.
"I have no problem with anyone getting fit enough to fight, and God bless them for it. But now is the time to promote fighters to take advantage of this opportunity."
Daniel Dubois (23), a heavyweight prospect, is also on the bill.
Dubois, 33, will defend his WBA interim title against Joe Cusumano (33), who is 19-3 but has yet to lose byKO.
