Jake Paul insists he’ll BEAT Anthony Joshua – as he requires a combat with the ex-heavyweight champion who has ‘no chin or talent’

Jake Paul has called out Anthony Joshua after claiming the former heavyweight champion has ‘no chin’.

The controversial YouTuber-turned-boxer has had 12 professional fights, with most of his opponents being MMA stars.

However, he stepped up to heavyweight last time out to beat the legendary Mike Tyson on points in November.

Now Paul has set his sights on another heavyweight – Joshua – and is adamant he would beat the Brit following his knockout loss to Daniel Dubois at Wembley in September. 

‘I know my boundaries,’ he said on his podcast BS w/ Jake Paul. ‘I want to fight Anthony Joshua because I know that I will f***ing beat Anthony Joshua’s a***.

‘He doesn’t have a chin, and he has no skill and he’s stiff. And I love you, Anthony. We’re friends, all this s***, but I want to fight you.’

Paul’s shock call-out comes after he went paintballing with Joshua last year

Paul’s shock call-out comes after he was previously pictured alongside Joshua when they went paintballing together last year.

However, Paul insists he wants to test himself against the best, having come close to agreeing a huge showdown with Canelo Alvarez earlier this year.

He was also recently linked with fighting Gervonta Davis, only for the lightweight champion to be held to a draw by Lamont Roach in New York, with a rematch between the pair now appearing likely.

Paul is still looking for his next opponent, and has now floated the idea of facing Joshua.

Joshua has not been seen in the ring since losing to Dubois six months ago, and his promoter Eddie Hearn recently revealed that he is currently recovering from a minor injury.

The two-time heavyweight titlist has made it clear that he wants to fight Tyson Fury next, but his fellow Brit announced his retirement in January and is yet to perform a U-turn.

Rematches with Dubois or Joseph Parker also remain potential options for Joshua as he eyes one final push to reclaim heavyweight gold.
