But according to videos and photos from their afternoon press conference, that doesn't seem to be the case anymore.

But he didn’t hype up his son as some may have expected. “Who knows if this fight is even going to happen at this point because we’re not going to pay him more money, he’s not worth it.” “He’s trying to do anything he can to claw and make money, because I think he realises the consequences of what might happen.

But the Jake Paul act seems to be wearing thin. Paul interjected, “You’re not in the ring, sir, your son is in the ring. Rahman Jr. admitted his father was right. Paul mentioned about a sparring session the two once had, where Rahman Jr. was told not to fight southpaw. So, he’ll be ready for this one.” He picked the wrong guy at the wrong time.” To which Paul replied, “moving too quick for your slow-assed son, who’s not going to be able to hit me.” Rahman Sr. admonished Paul about the “Ric Flair, WWE stuff. So, he’ll be ready for this one.”–Hasim Rahman Sr. You’re not in the ring. Even Rahman Sr., seated next to Hasim Jr., chimed in, saying about Paul, “Jake is a real fighter, and we respect him, but I just think he’s moving too quick. “We’re going to see August 6th when Jake Paul falls.” Jake Paul is far from dumb. Paul and Rahman Jr. played their roles well, with Paul playing the heel and Rahman Jr. as the straight guy.

After the revellers decide to play a murder-mystery party game, things go down hill fast leading to a very real murder. “He don’t want to make the bet,” Paul added. The only fighter he faced who didn’t have a 0-0 record is Tyron Woodley in their rematch (he was 0-1 with a split decision loss to Paul on his record). Does this late opponent change, and Paul’s frustration with him, make you more likely to tune in? He’s so big and strong, he’s going to knock me out, I haven’t fought nobody, but he won’t make the fucking bet. “This will be the last time anybody hears from you,” he said. “What are you going to change [your Instagram name] to,” he asked. This lead to the overly-long saga involving Woodley eventually getting Paul’s name tattooed on his body. Rahman is unlike anyone Paul has faced so far in his young boxing career.
