Jake Paul's next fight is less than two weeks away. The YouTuber-turned-boxer will face Tommy Fury on Dec. 18 in Tampa.
Fury is a -182 favorite (an $18.20 bet wins $10) at FanDuel on the two-way line, with Paul at +140 (a $10 bet wins $14).
On the two-way line, a draw will result in all bets being refunded.
On the three-way line, Fury is -170 ($17 wins $10) with Paul at +145 ($10 wins $14.50). The difference is that the draw is an option, so if you bet on of the fighters and the bout ends in a draw, you'll lose your bet.
Fury, 22, is the half-brother of heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, who just retained his lineal heavyweight title with a win over American Deontay Wilder.
Tommy Fury is 7-0 with four stoppages in his professional career, but has yet to fight beyond five rounds. And like Paul, he's got other interests — he paused his fighting career to appear on British reality TV show Love Island in 2019.
Fury fought on the undercard of Paul vs. former UFC star Tyron Woodley in August. He bested Paul's sparring partner Anthony Taylor by unanimous decision in a four-round bout.
There's a lot on the line for these two. Last month, Tyson Fury joked that Tommy should changed his name to Tommy Fumbles if he lost a fight to Paul. And Paul offered those terms — if he wins, Fury has to change his name. If Fury wins, Paul will pay him an extra $500,000 from his fight purse.
Paul has been favored in each of his last two fights. This is the first time he'll be an underdog in his career, should the market remain this way with 50 days left until the fight.

Paul Fight History
Paul's opponents have been an eclectic mix, including two former MMA stars, a YouTuber and former NBA guard Nate Robinson. The one thing missing is an actual fighter.
Both Woodley and Ben Askren, wrestling teammates at the University of Missouri and eventual MMA champs, had never boxed professionally until fighting Paul.
Paul stopped the fight against Askren in Round 1 via TKO, and fought to a split decision with Woodley several months later, though Woodley seemed content not to throw many punches.

Fury Fight History
Fury's professional wins don't look very impressive, but he's got the pedigree from his half-brother, Tyson, and some actual boxing experience. That's something none of Paul's previous opponents had.
This will be Fury's fourth fight in 2021, though none went longer than four rounds.
