Eddie Hearn vows to "deal with" "idiot" Jake Paul over bribery allegations

Eddie Hearn has vowed to take action after Jake Paul accused him of bribing boxing judges.

Hearn and Paul have traded verbal barbs for several weeks since successfully working together to stage Katie Taylor's victory over Amanda Serrano in New York back in April. The YouTube star was aggrieved with a number of factors including the decision to award the Irish star the victory, in addition to his boxing career being branded "average" by the Matchroom Boxing kingpin.
