The fight between Fury and Paul seems to be set for December with both combatants aiming to end the other\u2019s perfect records in the ring. After months of build-up and doubts over whether such a fight would even get off the ground, it was reported that the slugfest would take place on December 18, 2021, in Miami, Florida.
