Derek Chisora is ready to place a huge bet on Jake Paul vs Carl Froch.

DEREK CHISORA is adamant that Jake Paul would beat Carl Froch – and he is even willing to bet a fortune on it.

But away from his final days of preparation, the Problem Child reignited his war of words with former super-middleweight world champ Froch, who previously labelled the YouTuber a “clown”.

Paul, who has won his six pro boxing fights against amateurs, tweeted: “Carl Froch mad because I made more in one year than he made his whole career. You want the payday. I get it.

“So let’s do this, fight Anderson Silva on my next card and if you get lucky and beat him, then we can step in the ring and you make your career payday. Let me know.”

But Froch, 45, was having none of it as the retired 33-2 fighter responded with a video on Twitter and threatened to send Paul “into f***ing orbit”.

However, fellow British boxing icon Chisora, who was beaten by Tyson Fury in December at the Tottenham Stadium, believes that the American loudmouth would have no problems defeating “The Cobra”.

Del Boy told IFL TV: “Good luck to Jake Paul. The guy believes he can do anything, and when you’re that young age, you believe you can do anything.

“He’s entertainment. Those people that talk rubbish about him, they can’t do it, that’s why.

“There’s nothing wrong with that.

“Carl Froch will go in there and get his a**e beaten up and go get your check, bro.

“He’ll beat Carl Froch.”

Then Chisora insisted he would even be willing to put his money where his mouth is if the two met in the ring.

He added: “I’m willing to bet £200,000 that Carl Froch would get his a*** dealt with. I’m being 100 per cent serious.”

Paul, 26, takes on Tommy Fury in their long-awaited boxing showdown this weekend in Saudi Arabia.
