"It's 99 per cent done," John confirmed to talkSPORT .

"We have been in camp before Christmas so are ahead of schedule. Things are going really well; we are looking to put a great fight on for the fans."

This is the third time this fight has been scheduled, and on both previous occasions Tommy has had to pull out, but this time John is confident both men will make it into the ring.

"If they don't, it's a doomed contest," John said. "But both boys want to fight, so I can't see any issues. It’s a great venue they’ve got and the fans have been waiting a long time for this."

Previously, John had said that he would retire Tommy if he doesn't beat Jake.

And he has now revealed to talkSPORT that, while he believes his son will have no problem beating the American social media star, if he doesn't, he fully intends to follow through on his threats.
