Jake Paul is back in action on Saturday night when he takes on former UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva in Glendale, Arizona.
As ever when Paul is set to fight, there is a debate as to whether he is taking the sport of boxing seriously or turning it into a circus.
In the eyes of former world super middleweight champion Carl Froch, he is convinced that Paul is pretending to be a professional boxer and believes he could make easy work of 'The Problem Child' inside the ring.
“Jake Paul can’t fight, he’s pretending, he’s conning people. He’s got his audience, I don’t begrudge him - he’s making money and doing what he’s doing. But he’s not a professional boxer," Froch told William Hill's Stripped Podcast.
"He knows not to come anywhere near me. He’s bigger than me, he’s 14 stone, he’s younger than me, he’s fresher, he thinks he can fight.
"I wouldn’t even train for this guy, I’d do a little bit of training. I might do the odd little run to get the heart beating, but I’d take Jake Paul to school and hammer him. He knows it, he wouldn’t fight me. No chance.”
Froch's 12-year professional boxing career saw him become a two-time world super middleweight champion and culminated in an unforgettable rematch against George Groves at Wembley Stadium, a fight which he won with a stoppage in round eight.
