Where is Jake Paul vs. Tommy Fury? Location, venue & time zone difference for 2023 boxing fight image

Jake Paul and Tommy Fury have attempted to fight one another twice in the United States. Given the background of both fighters, Paul, a YouTuber, and Fury, a Love Island alum, the locations (New York and Florida) were perfect. 

Both fights were off because of injury and visa issues (both on the part of Fury). Fury's visa issues became a concern, so a new location was needed. There needed to be a middle ground, someplace that offers an unbiased atmosphere and a lot of money. Following months of negotiations, they have a venue.

Paul vs. Fury takes place on February 26. Top Rank and ESPN is the latest home for Paul, who has worked with Showtime and Triller in the past. 

With personalities this big, who could hold a fight of this magnitude?
