JAKE PAUL has jokingly claimed he’ll move up to HEAVYWEIGHT to take on Tyson Fury after his showdown with Anderson Silva.
The YouTuber turned boxer will lock horns with MMA legend Silva next Saturday in what will be the biggest test of his career.

As he hit a speed bag, The Problem Child said: “Ever since I moved up to the heavyweight division, Tyson Fury has been real quiet.
“Tyson Fury, where the f**k you at, p****y? Boom?
Paul ended his call-out of The Gypsy King by bizarrely growling as he looked straight into the camera.
The former Disney star’s accompanying tweet read: “In 6 days I fight Anderson Silva in #paulsilva but, after that, fat Jake is moving up to the heavyweight division to fight my brotha from anotha mother
@Tyson_Fury.
“The heavyweight division [has] been real quiet since this announcement.”;
Paul recently received praise from Fury after putting the Brit at the top of his pound-for-pound rankings.
He said: “Get up there Jake Paul. This man knows his stuff.”;

Paul then revealed Fury sent him a voice note on Instagram, which he played during a recent episode of his podcast.
Fury said: “Jakey! Get up there Jake Paul.”;
Paul was twice scheduled to fight Fury’s younger brother Tommy in a grudge match that has been over a year in the making.
But the bout has twice fallen through, with visa issues for Tommy being the cause of the most recent cancellation.
Paul’s knocked out ex-UFC champion Tyron Woodley in their rematch last December.
