JAKE PAUL has vowed to knock Tommy Fury out in decisive fashion – and finally earn the respect he feels is due.
The celebrity boxing pair are set to end two years of feuding in the ring tomorrow night in Saudi Arabia.

And the fight marks the first time Paul will face an opponent with prior professional boxing experience.
But the YouTuber-turned prizefighter warned Fury will be left brutally unconscious – like the other victims on his record.
And the savage nature of victory would leave no more doubt on his so-far polarising career as a boxer.
Paul told SunSport in Riyadh: “I know I’m going to win but my goal is to knock him out and I know I’m capable of that if I execute my game plan properly.
“So I think knocking out the professional boxer in a cold, deceive, crazy way like I knock people out, that will get the respect.
“If it’s just a win, I think people will admit I can really box but it won’t be the full level of respect that I think I deserve.
“I have to earn it though on Sunday.”
Fury, 23, was forced to twice pull out of the pay-per-view grudge match before, amid injury and US visa issues.

It has kept the feud festering but both stars have promised to bury one another’s careers in the Diriyah desert.
Fury has even agreed to RETIRE and forfeit his purse if he fails to beat the prankster-gone-puncher.
But Paul feels disregarded by his rival and insisted he is in for a rude awakening – as has been the case with his six prior opponents.
He said: “I don’t ever wish harm upon his life by any means.
“I’ve always become friends with my opponents after the fight – I talk to Nate Robinson, I talk to Tyron Woodley, I talk to Anderson Silva.
“Who knows what will happen? I don’t know, we’ll see what happens. After I knock him out I hope he realises that I’m just a really good fighter.
“I think that’s what all my other opponents realised, they feel less bad about it the more people I beat. He shouldn’t feel bad.
“I’ve put Anderson Silva down, I’ve put Woodley down, I’m going to put him down. It’s not that big of a deal when you look at it like that.”
