Jake Paul (12-1, 7 KO) admitted in an interview with ESPN that sparring before the fight with Anthony Joshua (28-4, 25 KO) is negatively affecting his health. The boxing star recently injured his nose during training.
"I won't lie, my nose shifted a few millimeters after one of the sparring sessions. Frank Sanchez definitely broke it a little. It's bad. Look at me, I look like Squidward Tentacles!" joked AJ's opponent, pointing to his face.
Earlier, Paul stated that after sparring with Lawrence Okolie, he was left with a bruise under his eye.
The Anthony Joshua vs. Jake Paul fight will be the main event of the evening in Miami on December 19. The bout is scheduled for eight rounds in the 245-pound (111 kg) weight category.
