YouTuber Jake Paul and former MMA fighter Ben Askren will put months of trash talk aside when they finally meet in the ring this weekend.
After coming to blows at a fiery press conference recently, the pair face-off in an exhibition bout at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta with plenty at stake for both fighters.
Paul is looking to move his professional boxing record to 3-0, but is yet to face an opponent with a background in combat sports.

The 24-year-old debuted with a victory over fellow YouTuber AnEsonGib and in November, knocked out former NBA player Nate Robinson inside two rounds.
Askren, 36, retired from mixed martial arts after he went 1-2 in the UFC, and was famously on the receiving end of the fastest knockout in its history when he was defeated by Jorge Masvidal at UFC 239.
