EDDIE HEARN has called out Jake Paul and fancies his chances in a fight.
The promoter and YouTuber-turned boxer have gone back and forth in the past despite working together.
And after watching Paul suffer defeat for the first time, against Tommy Fury, 43-year-old Hearn backs himself to beat the American.
He was asked by DAZN who he would rather manage, fight and party with out of Paul, Amanda Serrano and Katie Taylor.
Hearn responded: “I’d definitely fight Jake Paul because I’d actually win that fight.
“I’d manage Katie Taylor, because we’ve done such a great job. She is amazing, and it’s a Puerto Rican party with Amanda Serrano.”

It gives Paul more time to recover from his loss to Fury, 23, in Saudi Arabia amid rumours of a rematch.
But Hearn advised his promotional partner to look elsewhere in his boxing return.

He said: “For me, the rematch, I know people will watch it, but we’ve seen what they are, which is not very good.
