They will fight for eight rounds at a catchweight of 192lb on December 18, in Florida. The fight will be live in HD in the UK and US.

With their combined fanbases certain to tune in, Tommy’s dad and coach John predict it will make for a blockbuster cheque.

Rob Moore, an entrepreneur, was told by he: "Listen Tommy, Tommy is getting paid more for this than some of the world champions.

"He's being paid in the millions. So if we get millions to get wet, we're going to do it because it's good for business."

Tommy, 22, is 7-0 in the fight and more experienced than YouTube star Paul (24), who will be facing him for the first time.

The social media star beat former YouTuber AnEsonGib, an ex-NBA player Nate Robinson, 37 and Ben Askren (also 37).

He beat Tyron Woodley (39), in his final fight. Paul won against Anthony Taylor (32) on the undercard.

John acknowledged that the grudge match was set up but said the rivalry could continue. Logan, Logan's big brother, will be next.

He stated: "If he is on his game Tommy, and firing on all four of the cylinders.

"Easy work, easy money, and the winner moves on to bigger and more rewarding things.

"We'll get our brother out of the game, then we'll look at traditional titles for him.

"A brother is going to redeem another brother, isn't it?" The brother will want to take Jake Paul's part when he knocks him out.

"But I don’t think so, because the hiding Tommy’s gonna give Jake Paul to Jake Paul. The other brother won’t be interested either."

Logan is the least experienced of the trio having only boxed three times before.

First, he drew in a white collar fight with KSI, 28. He won the rematch a full year later via split-decision after they turned professional.

In June, he was back for another sensational show with Floyd Mayweather (44), which was a huge success.

Logan, 55, is now believed to be in talks with Mike Tyson, 55.
