Jake Paul's returning head trainer Shane Mosley has backed his charge to defeat Conor McGregor after his upcoming showdown with UFC legend Nate Diaz in August.
The YouTube star has returned to his ways of fighting MMA fighters after suffering his first career defeat to Tommy Fury in February in what was ultimately a big step up. And Mosley believes that he will be able to topple Diaz, and move on to a massive victory over two-weight world champion McGregor afterwards.
Paul has already knocked out world champions Ben Askren and Tyron Woodley, as well as dropping Anderson Silva on his way to a decision win. And Mosley feels that he will ultimately get the social media sensation into a position where he can challenge for world honours after a few years.
