Boxing fans are all saying the same thing after watching Tommy Fury and Jake Paul unload blows while working the pads in training.
The duo will finally settle their differences in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on February 26 after two previous bouts fell through.
Fury and Paul's first showdown in December 2021 was cancelled after Fury suffered a rib injury and developed a bacterial chest infection. It was then rearranged for August, but that didn't happen after Fury was denied entry to the United States due to a visa issue.
Both men have managed to remain undefeated in the meantime and will go at it at an event titled 'The Truth' in the Middle East next month.

There'll be an increased focus on how the duo prepare for what is the biggest fight of their respective careers so far. Everyone's already decided who is looking the most impressive in training. Despite his critics online, it's Fury who is being named as the favourite.
Fury is in there with his father, John, throwing incredibly powerful punches. The 23-year-old keeps up intensity throughout as his father shouts with every strike.
Paul, on the other hand, opts for speed with his punches which don't look as powerful. Two fighters with completely different approaches.
What's worth noting is the clips are taken from two different stages of camp. Fury's is in a normal workout, while Paul is in an open workout.
The video has gone viral on TikTok, with several deciding Fury has a better chance than originally thought.
One person said: "I don't think Tommy is scared of Jake Paul I think he's scared of the pressure. Upsets can happen."
Another put: "Look at the way Tommy spars and the way Jake spars. There's a big difference haha."
Someone tweeted: "I'd love to see Jake Paul working the pads with big John."
While a fourth added: "Tommy's going to do him."
Fury said he's looking forward to getting his hands on Paul so he can finally 'move on' in his boxing career.
He said: "Jake Paul’s boxing career ends on February 26th and I can finally move on with mine. Every time I go out right now, everybody asks me about the Jake Paul fight.
"After this fight is done, everybody will be asking me how it felt to knock Jake Paul out. The world is about to see what happens when a proper boxer faces a YouTuber.
"The way I see this fight, it’s as though I’m cruising down route 66 on my way to fighting for titles and belts and I need to stop off for a bit of fuel, get the job done and then we’re back on the road. It won’t be a long fight.
"I have been training hard and have the best team around me, Jake Paul makes a lot of noise outside the ring but the only sound we are going to hear in the ring is him hitting the canvas.”
