Jake Paul's Friend Stunned After Asking Him One Question Following Joshua Fight

Jake Paul's friend was left stunned after asking the YouTuber-turned-boxer one question following his defeat by Anthony Joshua.

Paul suffered the second defeat of his professional boxing career on Friday night when he was beaten by two-time world champion Joshua.

Inside the Kaseya Center in Miami, Florida, Paul put up a good fight as he managed to go six rounds before Joshua knocked him out with a vicious right hand.

Speaking after the fight, Paul admitted that his jaw was broken by Joshua's punch.

He said: "I think my jaw is broken. But that was good, I'll come back and get a world championship belt at some point."

Meanwhile, co-founder of Paul's Most Valuable Promotions, Nakisa Bidarian, revealed the conversation he had with the former Disney Channel star following the fight with Joshua.

He said: "I thought he did unbelievably, four weeks of preparation to take on one of the greatest heavyweights of all time. The best heavyweight of the past 10 years.

"He hung in there for six rounds and I haven't seen the official scorecards but on my unofficial scorecard, Jake won at least two rounds."

Bidarian added: "I was standing in the shower or next to him, he was showering, and I said 'Tell me the truth, at any point during the process, were you misrepresenting the truth that you thought you were going to win?'.

"He's like 'No bro, I thought for sure I was going to win. I thought I was going to land the big one and that was all that was on my mind'. And he knows what I thought, the whole time I told him it's an extremely tough fight. Very, very high risk but very, very high reward."

"Jake won at LEAST two rounds!"

Joshua also praised Paul during his post-fight interview.

He said: "It wasn't the best performance. The end goal was to pin Jake Paul down and hurt him. It took a bit longer than expected, but the right hand finally found the destination.

"Come and fight one of the 'realest' fighters out there, step in there with me next if you're a really bad boy."
