CARL FROCH has revealed he’d happily lace up his gloves again for a dust-up with YouTube sensation Jake Paul.
The four-time super-middleweight champion retired from boxing in the summer of 2015 but has flirted with the prospect of returning to the ring again over the last seven years.
And The Cobra admits he’d love to put a sting into the tale of Paul’s burgeoning boxing career.
He told William Hill: “If I could have one last fight it would be Jake Paul. I’d absolutely smash him to bits, easy.”
“Jake Paul can’t fight, he’s pretending, he’s conning people.
“He’s got his audience, I don’t begrudge him – he’s making money and doing what he’s doing. But he’s not a professional boxer.”

Paul, 25, has yet to take on a professional boxer during his brief stint in the sport – and Froch believes he’d be wary of facing him if the opportunity presented itself.
The 45-year-old said: “He knows not to come anywhere near me. He’s bigger than me, he’s 14 stone, he’s younger than me, he’s fresher, he thinks he can fight.
“I wouldn’t even train for this guy, I’d do a little bit of training.
“I might do the odd little run to get the heart beating, but I’d take Jake Paul to school and hammer him. He knows it, he wouldn’t fight me. No chance.”
Froch is so confident of battering Paul he’d be open to facing his older brother Logan on the same night.
He said: “I’d fight him and his brother on the same night. What they could do is take it in turns, so Jake can do round one and Logan can do round two.
“So they’re having a four-minute breather between rounds. It’s never been done, it’s exhibition boxing. I’d take them both on.”

Former Disney star Jake will be back in action early on Saturday morning against MMA legend Anderson Silva.
Logan, meanwhile, hasn’t fought since taking boxing great Floyd Mayweather the distance in their eight-round exhibition last July.
