Chris Eubank Jr willing to stage Jake Paul fight if YouTube star makes offer

Kalle Sauerland has admitted he would stage a fight between Chris Eubank Jr and Jake Paul despite having better options in mind.

Eubank Jr will fight in one of the biggest showdowns of his career when he inherits a family rivalry and takes on Conor Benn at London's O2 arena on October 8. It will be a battle with huge significance with the fighters' fathers having shared a two-fight rivalry when they first met over 32 years ago.

In the build-up to the announcement of his fight with Benn, Eubank Jr opted to call out Paul to a potential lucrative clash on Twitter, writing: "Yo Jake Paul. Once I deal with Benn and you take care of Rahman how about me and you go for a couple of rounds. I’ll come in at 160lb, you come in at whatever weight you want. Winner gets CANELO. And don’t worry I am not Tommy Fury, if I say I will do something, it gets done."
