Jake Paul vs Anthony Joshua LIVE: Fight time, boxing updates and results

After the shock fight announcement in November, initial reports suggested Joshua and Paul would split a prize pot of around £140million.

Paul appeared to confirm that figure is substantially higher, however.

The American seemingly revealed the real sum last month when he tweeted: ‘Stop asking me. $267 Million.’

As is always the case with Jake Paul fights, there have been plenty of conspiracy theories over what is and what isn’t allowed in tonight’s fight.

• How many rounds? The contest will be fought over eight rounds with each of those lasting three minutes.
  Weight limit? Joshua was given a weight limit of 245lbs – comfortably hitting the scales at 243.4lbs during Thursday’s weigh-in.
• Are knockouts allowed? This is a professional boxing contest so yes, knockouts are certainly permitted. Joshua has made a career out of rendering people unconscious with 25 of his 28 career wins coming inside the distance. Paul has shown he carries a bit of power himself however with seven stoppages to his name in 13 fights.

Netflix have exclusive streaming rights for tonight’s event with main card action underway from 1am.

Of course, we’d much rather you stuck it out with us for the evening.

Ringwalks tonight are scheduled for around 3:30am UK time, depending on how the undercard action unfolds.

Given the scale of the evening, we’re guessing those trips down to the ring might be on the spectacular side.

Yes. It’s actually happening. A boxing event from the realms of fantasy becomes a reality tonight as Jake Paul…. yes, Jake Paul, steps in the ring with two-time heavyweight champion.

It is either going to be a exceedingly easy night’s work for one man tonight…. or one of the biggest shocks in sporting history.

We will be with you every step of the way.
