JAKE PAUL has hit back at Carl Froch after the ex-world champion claimed he would beat him with “one arm tied behind his back”.
Paul, 27, beat Mike Tyson on points last night in a bout slammed by critics.

GettyFroch, 47, was one of those who took aim at the Problem Child’s performance against the legend 31 years older than him.
The former super middleweight champ said: “He’s getting there, but he is not quite there. There will be plan for Jake Paul.
“I’ll tell you what – my mobile phone won’t be ringing, he won’t be sending me and email, they won’t be contacting my agent.
“I ain’t calling him out, I am just letting you know, so that he knows, that I f****** know if I went in there with Jake Paul it would be an absolute mismatch.
“One round demolition job. I’d even tie one arm behind my back.
“Just imagine, one arm behind my back, lining him up with this right hand and then eventually leathering him with a big uppercut or a big overhand dirty stinker.
“Put him in the ‘el sparko’ position like he’s been tasered.”
Paul responded with a tweet back, writing: “F****** sour loser. Shut the f*** up.

“I’ve done more in four years than you have in your life.
“First and last time I respond to your broke salty a***. Let me know if you want to wash my cars.”
Froch hung up his gloves in 2014 – four years before fellow ex-British boxer Tony Bellew retired.
He also hit out at Paul, saying: “We are all to blame for this man. We are all talking and watching. We have to stop this fool.
“Don’t tune into him until he fights someone who is fit healthy and not a grandfather.
“Any proper boxing people helping Paul need to look at themselves. This is just sad.”
Paul wants his next fight to be against current super middleweight champion Canelo Alvarez.
He called him out in the ring after he beat Tyson, saying “He knows he wants a payday. So, he knows where the money man is at.
“He’s going to want a payday and I want to show the world what I’ve been talking about, beating Canelo is true and I’ll have the biggest upset in the history of boxing.”
Paul vs Tyson shocking punch stats
THE punch stats from Mike Tyson’s defeat to Jake Paul made for “sad” reading.
Veteran Iron Mike, 58, started strongly enough in his Netflix boxing fight with the former YouTuber.
But he simply ran out of gas within the first few minutes of the eight-round contest.
In the 16 minutes of action, the former undisputed heavyweight world champion landed just 18 punches – averaging just 2.25 successful hits per round.
In total, he only attempted 97, meaning he made contact with just 18 per cent.
By comparison, Paul, 27, threw a whopping 278 punches – nearly 200 more than his ageing opponent – but still only landed 78 for a success rate of 28 per cent despite his opponent barely moving.
His most explosive round came in the third when the victorious Problem Child attempted 44 punches and connected with 16 of them.
However, a woeful fifth round saw just four punches landed between the pair as the quality failed to live up to the hype and Paul refused to go for the knockout.
