Paul, 24, has made no secret of his desire to scrap the Love Island star and vowed to ‘expose him as a terrible fighter’ in an interview with SunSport.
He faces former UFC welterweight champ Tyron Woodley on August 28 but John is demanding he put his money where his mouth is on the undercard of Tyson’s trilogy with Deontay Wilder next month.
Speaking to IFL TV, dad John said: “I’d give Jake Paul the back of my hand, and I’m 56-years-old.
“This kid [Tommy] would murder Jake Paul. He’d be on a life sentence, he’d have a murder charge if he fights Jake Paul.
“If he wants a fight, there’s a slot there on 24th July.
“Grow some nuts and this kid will fight you. Don’t worry about that, he steps away from nobody.”
John did give Paul some praise but added his son will take no prisoners when the pair finally clash.
He continued: “Good on Jake Paul for doing what he’s doing. At the end of the day, good luck to the kid.

“He’s game enough to get in the ring. Any man who gets in the ring is a game man.
“But listen, it’s a big difference coming from no crowd to a big crowd. It’s a first night out for them, they’re very noisy. It’s brand new for him [Tommy].
“But Jake Paul, we’ll have you next mate. If you think he [Tommy] is no good, we’ll take Jake Paul next.
“Tyson’s undercard, July 24, Jake Paul.”
Tommy extended his pro boxing record to 6-0 with a 40-36 points win over fellow Brit Grant in Telford.
Paul also holds an unbeaten boxing record with three knockout wins from three fights.

According to TMZ, Mayweather’s cash splash on the series of different cars consisted of:

One 2021 Rolls-Royce White Ghost
One 2021 Mercedes S560
One 2021 Maybach sedan
One 2021 Dodge Journey
Two 2021 Dodge Chargers
Three 2021 Dodge Challengers

A member of Mayweather’s team later revealed the fighter has since purchased a second Rolls-Royce Ghost.
A man known simply as Chop, the owner of Towbin Auto Group in Las Vegas, confirmed Mayweather’s splurge at his dealership.
The 50-0 boxer is said to have bought 157 vehicles from Towbin over the course of his career.
Among those cars includes a remarkable 29 different Rolls-Royces.
Pretty Boy has amassed his own fleet of dream motors which is said to be worth £20million.
It includes the Rolls-Royces worth over a staggering £3million, as well as four Bugatti Veyron supercars that cost £1.7million.
But what’s unique about ‘Money’ Mayweather’s cars is that they mostly come in two colours – white or black – and are divided between his two mansions in LA and Las Vegas.

In Los Angeles they’re black, and in Las Vegas they’re white.
Mayweather’s splash comes ahead of his eight-round exhibition fight against Paul in Miami, Florida this weekend.
The legendary boxer will step into the ring with the 0-1 internet sensation on Sunday night in a bout where he is expected to make £72m.
Paul weighed in a whopping 34.5 pounds heavier than Mayweather on Saturday.
The pair went head to head in an intense face-off as Mayweather laughed off his opponent’s attempt to intimidate him.
Speaking about the fight, Money said: “I’ve been here before, so I know what it takes. I’ve fought every different style you can possibly fight.
“Height don’t win fights, weight don’t win fights, fighting wins fights at the end of the day and I can fight.
“Once again, I’m not worried about a hat. I don’t worry about what nobody says. The one thing I can do, I can fight.
“I’ve been at the top level for 25 years, so I know what it takes when it’s a fight of this magnitude.”
Paul will make his ring walk to face Mayweather at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami in the early hours of Monday morning UK time.
There will be a full capacity crowd in the Hard Rock Stadium for the event, likely around 70,000 fans in attendance.
Fans wanting to watch the fight must stump up £16.95 through Sky Sports Box Office.

Paul, 26, tipped the scales at 189lbs for the eight-round showdown at the Hard Rock Stadium.
He earlier stated on social media he would be fined £70,000 for every pound over 190lbs he came in at.
Mayweather, 44, was way back on 155lbs, ironically the heaviest weight of his career.
As well as the significant weight difference, the 6ft 2ins YouTuber boasts a six-inch height advantage and gets an extra four inches with his reach.
After a brief exchange of trash talk on stage, security were on hand to ensure things did not boil over – as they did when Logan’s brother Jake nicked Mayweather’s hat last month.
And Paul Sr is confident he can confident he can catch the unbeaten five-weight world champion.
He told Showtime Sport: “He’s not ready, he don’t know what to expect, and this is not the biggest fight of my life.
“This is the biggest fight of his life, because he’s got a lot on the line and he’s got everything to lose. I’m going to go in there, have fun.

“Tomorrow I break the simulation and beat the greatest boxer in the history of the planet.
“I’m going to get it done. Floyd is not ready, that’s all I can say.”
Mayweather, though, dismissed any suggestion he is going to get flustered by the size difference or any pre-match antics from the Paul brothers.
Money said: “I’ve been here before, so I know what it takes.
“I’ve fought every different style you can possibly fight.
“Height don’t win fights, weight don’t win fights, fighting wins fights at the end of the day and I can fight.

Logan Paul works up a sweat in training ahead of Mayweather fight More

EVANDER HOLYFIELD has set the boxing world alight after confirming his return to the the ring at the age of 58.The former undisputed cruiserweight and heavyweight king is expected to fight Kevin McBride in an exhibition fight in 2021.
Holyfield used to own this sprawling 109-room mansion in Georgia, US

The huge mansion had its own banqueting hall
It comes hot on the back of Mike Tyson, 54, who returned to the ring for an exhibition bout against Roy Jones Jr lasst year.
Holyfield and Tyson – who has his own epic £2.5m Las Vegas mansion – pocketed mega cash back in the day for their bouts.
The former was believed to have made around £28.3m for the pair’s second fight in June 1997.
So it’s no wonder he could afford to splash a few million on this sprawling 109-room mansion in Georgia, US.
Music mogul Rick Ross bought the pile for around £4.7m in 2014.
But before that, cameras went inside to capture the majesty of the epic abode.
The enormous 54,000 square-foot mansion sits on 235 acres and is the largest single family home in the state of Georgia.
The house boasted its own bowling alley
The regal estate looked like something out of Downton Abbey
Holyfield’s property was eventually sold to music mogul Ross
There were three pools in all at the property, including this indoor hot tub
The mansion was said to cost Holyfield $1m a year
The mansion measured a huge 54,000sq ft
The front of the house is not too shabby either
The indoor pool looked inviting
The kitchen provides plenty of room for slap up meals to be made
The outdoor pool is simply massive
There were 21 bathrooms, almost two each for the 12 bedrooms.
On top of this it featured a bowling alley, home theatre and 350,000 gallon swimming pool.
There was also a seven-stall barn, baseball field with lights and a scoreboard, separate boxing gym, recording studio and guest house.
Unsurprisingly, the gigantic home cost Holyfield around $1m a year to maintain with an electricity bill reported to be around £13,600 a month, say the Daily Mail.
The massive outdoor pool was complemented by a smaller indoor one – plus a Jacuzzi – for when temperatures plummeted in the winter.

However, despite his vast wealth, reports claimed Holyfield had to sell the home at auction after running into financial difficulties.
The property, originally sold to a bank, went as part of a foreclosure for $7.5m back in 2012 – and it was after this that Ross bought it.
The cost of running the massive estate was rumoured to be among the sources of the boxer’s financial problems, which were also said to include constant court battles over the father-of-eleven’s child support payments.
