Carl Froch has weighed in with his thoughts on the insane potential match-up between Jake Paul and Anthony Joshua.
Paul called out Joshua in a recent episode of his podcast, and Froch, who has had beef with both men, has given his thoughts.
Speaking on BS, ‘The Problem Child’ stated: “I want to fight Anthony Joshua.
“Because I know I will f***ing beat Anthony Joshua’s a**.
“He doesn’t have a chin and he has no skill and he’s stiff.
“I love you Anthony. We’re friends all this s***, but I want to fight you.”
However, speaking on Froch on Fighting, ‘The Cobra’ warned Paul the match-up would not end well for him.
“I can’t believe it’s even being mentioned, but it is being mentioned.
“I think AJ is way too big, he throws a good one-two down the pipe.
“If he lands that right hand on fake Paul’s chin, it’s f***ing game over surely.
“It might be the end of his life if he’s not f***ing careful!
“He’s just fought Mike Tyson, which was ridiculous, the Canelo fight never went anywhere. So now I feel like he’s clout chasing.
“He needs a big name, so he’s talking bull**** about AJ!
“But it would make sense for AJ to fight Jake Paul. It’s mega money and he would hammer him with ease.”
Paul was last out in a money-spinning clash against 58-year-old Mike Tyson back in November, which he won via a wide points decision.
A deal was reportedly close for a blockbuster against Canelo Alvarez, however this fell through at the last hour after the Mexican elected to sign a four-fight deal with Turki Alalshikh’s Riyadh Season instead, which begins on May 3 with a clash with William Scull for the undisputed super middleweight championship.
Joshua fans are still awaiting news of his ring return, as he has not boxed since a crushing fifth round stoppage defeat to Daniel Dubois back in September.
