"I don’t think he can knock me out" - Jake Paul issues bold prediction for Anthony Joshua fight, shares training camp update 

Jake Paul recently shared a bold prediction for his upcoming fight against Anthony Joshua and opened up about his training camp.

Paul is set to face Joshua in a professional heavyweight boxing match on Dec.19 at the Kaseya Center in Miami. While the former Disney star was previously booked for an exhibition fight against Gervonta Davis last month, the bout was scrapped due to the WBA lightweight champ's recent legal issues.

Given the difference in their size and experience, many are backing Joshua to dominate Paul. However, 'The Problem Child' believes he can finish the former heavyweight world champion.

In an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show, Paul dismissed the possibility of the Englishman knocking him out and said:

"I don’t think he can knock me out because he’s not going to be able to line up his shots properly to be able to land the hard punch. I think it’s going to be a very tough fight for multiple rounds, but then when I figure out his pacing, his style, his speed, his footwork, he’s going to get a little bit tired trying to chase me around, and then I’m going to set up the shot. I’m not going to say exactly what, but I see what it is and I think it will end in the fifth or sixth round."

Paul also shared an update on his training camp and added:

"We definitely focused a lot more on the strength workouts and lifting heavier weights. I started to eat a bit more, but I didn’t want to bulk up too much. The speed is going to be the key here, but we brought in world champion heavyweight sparring partners, guys who are 270 pounds, 250 pounds, sparring with them has been insane." [H/t: MMA Fighting]
