The WBC have revealed the special belt up for grabs to the winner of Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury this evening.

Paul and Fury will finally touch gloves on Sunday at the Diriyah Arena in Saudi Arabia, exclusively live on talkSPORT, after a bitter war of words between the two that has stretched on for years now.

Two fights had already been scheduled before being cancelled but that has only served to heighten the anticipation for a clash that no one seems to know what will happen.

Paul has a 6-0 record in professional boxing, though he is yet to fight a boxer, taking on the likes of former MMA stars Tyron Woodley, Anderson Silva and Ben Askren instead.

But while Fury has a better record at 8-0, his fighting repertoire is hardly gleaming either, compared to his brother Tyson, who is a two-time world heavyweight champion.

And the WBC have released a special belt, called the 'Diriyah Champion', to award the winner when the contest is over on Sunday night.

The belt appears to have been specially brought in with this fight in mind and appears to have every flag in the world on it.

During their latest press conference, the belt was brought out and showed to the public for the first time with both fighters holding onto it.

The WBC are one of four boxing organisations, along with the WBA, IBF and WBO, but are the only one to have revealed that Paul would be ranked if he beats Fury.

That potential decision was met with criticism from Derek Chisora, who claims it is an insult to the real fighters in boxing.

"Do you know what, if he gets a ranking with the WBC, I personally think everybody in the WBC should come out of the rankings and be in another federation," Del Boy said. 

"Everyone should just drop the WBC and say, 'I'm not fighting for it anymore'.

"That's not fair. There's other boxers who have been slaving themselves, making weight, fighting and because he's boxed two fighters they give him a WBC ranking? No, it's unfair. 

"If they do that, I urge everyone in the WBC rankings - drop the belts, who cares?

"Belts do not pay the bills for most fighters. As Mike Tyson says, it's garbage. Most of it is garbage to be honest with you."
