CARL FROCH claimed Conor McGregor would get “absolutely slaughtered” by Jake Paul.

That is despite YouTuber-turned boxer Paul not being able to “fight for toffee.”

The ex-boxing champion has traded his fair share of words with the American in recent years but he still backs him to beat McGregor.

Froch told CasinoAlpha: “I no longer know what (McGregor’s) motivation is for fighting; he’s had a couple bad pastings, he’s not short of a few quid.

“In fairness, he’s earned every penny and he was a phenomenal fighter and you have to admire him for that.

“But I’m not sure why he wants the Michael Chandler fight, or what his motivation is.

“He’s better off hanging around the Misfits and YouTubers and getting involved in a celebrity fight because he’s a massive name.

“But forget about a crossover fight with Jake Paul, he’d get absolutely slaughtered.”

McGregor, 35, lost his one and boxing bout to American legend Floyd Mayweather, 46, in 2017.

Froch, 46, commentated on the crossover clash and gave a scathing verdict on the Irishman.

It has kept the bad blood brewing between the two to this day.

Similarly, Froch has not been impressed by Paul’s foray into boxing and insisted he could beat the 26-year-old after ten years in retirement.

He said: “He’s a s***house, he can’t fight for toffee, and he would not come anywhere near me, even though I’m ten years retired.

“That’s all you need to know about Jake Paul, he called me out, but he won’t take on a guy who has been retired for ten years.

“I could come back, not even put myself through a training camp, and it would be such an easy night’s work.

“He’s a performing clown, hopefully he will go away because boxing fans are not taking him seriously.

“The reason this isn’t on pay per view is because people are no longer prepared to pay for this rubbish.”
