“If I’m a betting man, it’s not really worth betting on Anthony Joshua cause he’s such a heavy favourite.
“I bet on Jake Paul to win for a no contest, draw, technical draw or something crazy to happen. I bet Jake Paul finds a way to win or get a draw, technical draw, cause you’ll get 10-1 odds.
“I’d say yeah, don’t put your life savings on it but if you’re going to have a little flutter, you’d get something back. I would be the biggest sporting upset if this happens, not just boxing, in any sport, if someone with such a lack of experience at the world level challenges someone who is world level and has proven it. “
