Jake Paul claims Anthony Joshua was "singing his praises" when the pair spent time together on a recent trip to Dubai.
The former world heavyweight champion was in the Middle East for training and a holiday, while Paul was there to attend a number of functions and commentate on Tommy Fury's exhibition bout with Rolly Lambert. The YouTuber-turned-boxer trained with Joshua's friend and 258 Management client Lawrence Okolie, and later played laser tag with the ex-champion.
Joshua is a keen observer of all trends in boxing, and he has shown interest in the YouTube scene in the past. He has appeared in videos with KSI and Joe Weller, and even attended Deji vs Alex Wassabi back in March, which saw a host of social media stars compete in white collar bouts.
