Jake Paul mocks Canelo Alvarez by using boxing legend's famous catchphrase

Jake Paul channeled his inner Canelo Alvarez by copying the Mexican's "payday" catchphrase at the press conference for his boxing fight with Anderson Silva.

Paul is set to take to the ring in his sixth professional outing when he tackles the challenge of UFC legend Anderson Silva on October 29 in Arizona. The YouTube star will be hoping he can navigate arguably the sternest examination of his boxing credentials to set up fights with other high-profile targets including YouTube rival KSI and Nate Diaz.

Paul held a second press conference with Silva last night as they begin to prepare for their boxing match next month. During the event, UFC legend Chael Sonnen asked Paul how he felt that fans had began to request him to take certain match-ups, despite initially receiving a frosty reception upon his arrival in the sport.
