Eddie Hearn admits Jake Paul would "spark him out" in £10million boxing fight

Eddie Hearn has admitted he would end up "facedown" on the canvas if he fought Jake Paul.

Hearn promoted Paul's boxing debut when he dropped and stopped AnEson Gib in a YouTube boxing clash in Miami in 2020. Paul has since launched a professional career in the sport defeating the likes of Tyron Woodley and Ben Askren in the process.

Matchroom Boxing promoter Hearn has since worked with Paul on a joint-promotion of Katie Taylor's victory over Amanda Serrano in April this year, and the pair were sat down in a face-to-face clash during fight week. Since the fight was completed, Paul has taken critical shots at Hearn on social media after the Briton labelled him an "average" fighter.
