Jake Paul already back training after gruelling sparring session with WBO cruiserweight world champion Lawrence Okolie

JAKE PAUL is already back in training just a week after beating Anderson Silva.

That̢۪s after being put through his paces in a gruelling sparring session with cruiserweight king Lawrence Okolie.

Paul, 25, is the talk of boxing after racking up yet another impressive win.

His sixth victory came in late October against Silva, with the YouTuber dropping the MMA legend in the final round.

But Paul is not resting on his laurels after jetting to Dubai for Floyd Mayweather̢۪s fight against Deji.

Instead, the American linked up with world champion Okolie for a brutal spar in the ring.

And the duo showed they had worked up quite a sweat as they posed for a picture afterwards.

Unbeaten Okolie, 29, has fought some of the best in the business, with his most recent win coming in February over Michal Cieslak.

But he believes Paul can go toe-to-toe with most professional fighters.

Okolie said: “He’s better than most boxers, people just hate because of his influencer background.”

It now remains to be seen who Paul takes on next, with long-time rival Tommy Fury also in Dubai this weekend.

The sibling of heavyweight icon Tyson has already threatened to SLAP Paul should they end up meeting.

But SunSport has been exclusively told by trainer Anthony Taylor that Fury stands “no chance” against Paul.

Taylor declared: “Tommy has no chance. Jake Paul knocks him out, third round.

“Tommy is slow, he doesn’t have any power, he has no pop in him, I’ve felt his power.

“I’m a tough dude, I’m a realist and I’ve always been consistent. Tommy doesn’t have the power.

“Jake Paul is going to outwork Tommy. If you notice, Tommy likes to avoid the longer rounds, he’s been doing four rounds.”
