Boxing promoter Eddie Hearn labelled YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul ‘deluded’ after the controversial star claimed he could defeat Canelo Alvarez in the future.
Hearn and Paul worked alongside one another as promoters for Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano respectively as the two women headlined Madison Square Garden on Saturday night. Taylor won via split decision.
Paul has ruffled many feathers since embarking on his highly-publicised in-ring career, calling out a number of combat stars including Nate Diaz, Conor McGregor and Canelo Alvarez. The multi-weight multiple world champion became the first boxer in history to become undisputed champion at super middleweight in November 2021.
