Eddie Hearn does not intend to stand in the way of Anthony Joshua 'Jake Paul' in a boxing match.
Paul is removed from the latest victory in his polarizing career in the ring, which has followed his first success as a YouTuber and Disney star.
In his 13th pro -fight, Paul Julio Cesar Chavez JR, a former WBC Middleweight Champion, dominated in their Dazn Main event in the Honda Center of Anaheim on 28 June.
And in the immediate aftermath of another triumph, 'the problem child' made different daring and ambitious callouts.
Eddie Hearn responds after Jake Paul Anthony Joshua called
Until the removal of Boxing traditionalists and old opponents of Paul's arrival in the combat sports kingdom, 'The Problem Child' is now a viable competition for a world title shot.
Paul was ranked by the WBA in the Cruiserweight Top 15. That means that the citizen of Cleveland could stand in line for an earlier unlikely title shot against Gilberto 'Zurdo' Ramirez, who was confronted with Paul during the event last Saturday after he had defended his titles against Yuniel Dorticos.
But Ramirez was not the only prominent name in the sights of the YouTuber pugilist after his victory over Chavez Jr. He also literally focused on a larger test.
Former two -time uniform heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua was one of Paul shouted. And while 'AJ still has to respond, his promoter, Eddie Hearn of Matchrome Boxing, has.
“He shouts Anthony Joshua, who is a heavyweight monster,” Hearn said in an interview with Talksport. “I think Jake Paul is crazy enough to fight Anthony Joshua because the money would be absolutely obscene.
“It is a catastrophic mismatch that would coordinate people to look at, because it would be the end of Jake Paul. It is so dangerous.”
And it is precisely that – the end of Paul – that Hearn would actually give the green light.
“Will AJ (Vecht Paul)? He is his own husband, but I will say:” Yes, continue with a size. Go with this guy. Take him out of the game, “Hearn said in a separate interview with Sky Sports.
Jake Paul repeats his 'ultimate destination' in Boxing
Although the seriousness of Paul's Callout of Joshua has not been surprisingly rejected, the 28-year-old has stated that there is nothing unsaving about his hope for the world title.
In a recent post on X repeated 'the problem child' that having a championship around his waist remains the ambitious main goal in the ring.
“I worked hard to get here, but there is nothing to celebrate. Long way ahead and I am dedicated more with it every day.
“I can occasionally take the path, but as a world champion is my desired ultimate destination.”

With that in mind, Paul will probably have his attention in climbing the ranks and securing what would undoubtedly be a controversial chance of Ramirez's Cruiserweight -Riem.
