What does the future hold for Tommy Fury ahead of facing KSI, having beaten Jake Paul? He's mapped out his career as he claimed he'll eventually challenge the world's best.
Fury returns to action on Saturday when he meets KSI on a bumper Misfits Boxing event at the AO Arena in Manchester.
Of course, he hasn't fought since his victory over 'The Problem Child' last February.

Following his win against the American, the 24-year-old vowed to end all YouTube boxing. Shortly after making his outlandish statement, he was booked to face KSI.
Who's next for him if he can negotiate the threat of KSI? Well, there's Logan Paul and Dillon Danis, who face off against each other on the card following their dramatic pre-fight press conference.
But that is if Fury wants to stay in the YouTube boxing scene. However, another fight against an influencer appears likely as he wants to secure the big paydays before moving onto a more traditional boxing route of British and European titles before challenging for world honours. Check it out below:
"I mean, obviously, these fights [YouTube fights] are a lot more financially better than those fights [British and European bouts]. So, I'm going to take it all in while it's here," he told SPORTbible.
"You don't know how long this crap is going to be here for. I'll take all these fights as they come and I'm sure at the end of it, I'll challenge against the world's best."

Despite the YouTube boxing element to KSI vs Fury, it's scheduled to be a professional bout, according to the man himself.
"Yes, it's a professional bout. I'm a professional fighter and that's what it is," he added.
Fury must see off KSI this weekend if he harbours any ambitions of competing for major titles in boxing.
