Jake Paul and Tommy Fury are finally set to get it on in just a couple of weeks' time.
After months of back and forth, the bitter rivals will step into the ring in Saudi Arabia at the end of this month to see who really is the hardest of them all - and it seems as if Tommy's other half has had some strong words for the YouTuber:
Let's face it, there are very few neutrals in this fight with most boxing fans because whether they like it or not, they'll be leaning towards one side over the other.
While some have been waiting an age to see YouTuber-cum-boxer Jake get knocked out by a professional, others will be keen to see the Love Island star fall flat on his face.

Over recent weeks, things have started to heat up between the two camps, with Jake branding his opponent 'disrespectful' to some of the biggest names in boxing by not taking their fight seriously.
Jake said: "He's gonna have to pay for all the times he pulled out, all the business people he screwed over. It's disrespectful.
"There are some of the biggest names in boxing, some of the biggest promoters in the world, some of the most influential people in the world, one of the greatest countries in the world, and he doesn't want to show up 'cause a 'private matter' - cool. We all have private matters."
But now, Molly-Mae has got involved.

The 23-year-old recently gave birth her and Tommy's first child, a little girl called Bambi. And Jake was actually the one who broke the news before either Tommy or Molly were able to announce her arrival themselves.
In a social media post agreeing to reschedule their fight to later this month, Jake said: "Fumbles has no excuses now. Baby is born. Money is massive. Immigration is not an issue."
Not cool, mate. Come on.
However, Molly may have the last laugh as she shared a withering put down to Jake, backing Tommy to smash his face in when they meet.

In a recent video posted to her YouTube channel, she and Tommy were discussing the difficulties they've been having with feeding 2-week-old Bambi when the talk turned to the fight.
Tommy told viewers to 'be there or be square' on 26 February, with Molly adding: "For a demolition job."
Not sure how Jake will come back from that. I'm sure he will be shaking in his little booties.
I guess we'll have to wait and see whether she's right, though.
