EDDIE HEARN said he has a terrible feeling' that Jake Paul will beat Tommy Fury in their celebrity grudge match.
YouTuber Paul and Love Island star Fury signed to fight in Florida on December 18.
It has already attracted a lot of attention and Hearn was first to ask about it on Instagram Live.
When asked who he would pick to win, Hearn replied: "I have a terrible feeling Jake Paul might win."
He promoted Paul's debut in professional boxing, which was a win over an online opponent, "AnEsonGib" in January 2020.
He then knocked out Nate Robinson, ex-NBA player, and Ben Askren (retired UFC welterweight), 37.
Recently, the American defeated Tyron Woodley (ex-UFC champion), in eight rounds to make it 4-0.
Fury, 22 beat Anthony Taylor, 32 to win the undercard bout 7-0.
Hearn was quick to praise Paul's abilities, but warned that Fury, the brother of heavyweight champion Tyson would be defeated.
He stated that he had only seen Tommy Fury in a UK TV show once, beating a man that I could have beaten.
"Then I watched the last fight he was involved, the four-rounder against a guy who sparred alongside Jake.
"Logic and hope would tell a professional boxer who boxed for a living, Tyson Fury's younger brother, to never lose to Jake Paul.
"But Jake Paul's not horrible, there are a lot worse pro fighters than Jake Paul.
"I've seen them all, and I've had many of them on my shows with young children coming through.
"But it's just embarrassing if he loses that bout."
