    Watch Jake Paul drop YouTuber in sparring… but former world champ claims tell-tale sign proves fighter took a dive

    JAKE PAUL dropped YouTuber Donald De La Haye with some brutal body shots – but ex-world champion Sergio Mora isn’t buying it. De La Haye – known as Deestroying – challenged social media star-turned-unbeaten boxer Paul to a scrap.

    But it did not go well for the Costa Rican-American influencer, who was floored after just three punches.
    Although Mora, a former light-middleweight champ and now pundit, wasn’t convinced.
    He tweeted: “When a fighter is hurt to the body and goes down he instinctively covers up the spot where the punch landed!!!
    “The LAST thing a fighter does is open up his arms and expose his ribs!”

    Paul’s trainer BJ Flores, an ex-cruiserweight contender, defended the sparring and said the American only threw punches to the body.
    Flores tweeted: “We love him! That’s why Jake didn’t punch for the first 1 minute 30 seconds and just let Deestroying do his thing.
    “Those were the first punches Jake threw.”
    After the session, Deestroying said: “His hands are so heavy and it doesn’t even look like he’s trying.

    “They told me to go at my pace and he’s going to match my pace. That boy tagged me in the face, tagged me in the sternum, couldn’t breathe. A minute and 38 is all it took.”
    Paul said: “He’s fast, he’s got heart and b****s doing what a lot of people wouldn’t do which is get in the ring with me.
    “So respect to him and he’s athletic.. took some shots. If he really worked at it he could be good.”
    Paul, 25, is back in his adopted training base of Puerto Rico ahead of his next fight.
    He in October beat UFC legend Anderson Silva, 47, in the biggest win of his 6-0 career.
    And Paul is still in talks to reschedule his grudge match with Tommy Fury, 23, at the third time of asking.

    And in the wake of Argentina’s demolishing of Croatia in the World Cup semi-final, the ex-Miss Bum Bum was quick to stick the boot into Croatian model Ivana Knoll.
    Ivana, 30, has been dubbed the “World Cup’s hottest fan” due to her eye-catching outfits in the colours of the Croatian flag.
    She filmed herself mocking Brazilian striker Richarlison’s “pigeon dance” after Croatia knocked out the South American giants in the quarter-finals.
    And following Argentina’s 3-0 thrashing of Croatia, Brazilian beauty Suzy couldn’t resist a little dig.

    Taking to her Instagram story, she wrote: “Where’s Ivana Piranha who made fun of the Brazilians? Go dancing in Croatia! On Sunday we will be champions.”
    She also shared a picture of herself biting a red-and-white chequerboard cloth similar to the Croatian flag with her Instagram followers.
    “Where is the Croatia?” she asked, mockingly. “They’re going to watch the final at home!”
    Suzy celebrated Argentina reaching their sixth World Cup Final by delighting her fans with photos of her getting covered in body paint in the blue and white colours of the flag.

    The winner of the title of Miss Bum Bum in both 2015 and 2019, she has declared herself the world’s number one Lionel Messi fan.

    Sharing two photos of her surrounded by Croatian fans in an iconic red-and-white checked bikini top on her Instagram, she said: “Sometimes we play amazing, sometimes not so well, sometimes in the semi-finals we have bad referee like yesterday to give [a] penalty for nothing and losing the chance to get the World Cup, sometimes we are underrated and then we show the way home to the most favoured team, that is football… But [the] most important thing, we are A SMALL COUNTRY WITH A BIG HEART and I am proud to be a Croatian forever and ever!”
    She is expected to attend this Saturday’s third-place playoff clash with Morocco, who were beaten 2-0 by World Cup holders France on Wednesday.

    THE “World Cup’s hottest fan” has tried to cheer up crushed Croatian fans with a bikini-busting snap after they were beaten by Argentina. Stunning Ivana Knoll hailed her nation’s football heroes for their incredible efforts after they crashed out of the tournament

    But the brunette beauty also took the opportunity to share some choice words towards referee Daniele Orsato following his controversial penalty decision.
    In a sizzling yet scathing social media post, the model made it clear she held the Italian official responsible for their 3-0 defeat.
    Ivana shared two jaw-dropping snaps of her celebrating in the stadium in one of her signature red-and-white ensembles.
    Sporting a plunging halterneck bikini top paired with figure-hugging leggings, the Croatian beauty gave devastated supporters a reason to smile.

    She then praised Zlatko Dalić’s men for their achievements in the 2022 World Cup, before taking a shot at the referee for his ruling.
    The 30-year-old wrote in her Instagram caption: “Sometimes we play amazing, sometimes not so well.
    “Sometimes in the semi-finals we have bad referee like yesterday to give penalty for nothing and losing the chance to get the trophy.
    “Sometimes we are underrated and then we show the way home to the most favored team, that is football…

    “But the most important thing, we are A SMALL COUNTRY WITH A BIG HEART and I am proud to be a Croatian forever and ever!”
    Croatia were swept aside by a Lionel Messi-inspired Argentina, with the magician scoring once and setting up another.
    Manchester City ace Julian Alvarez scored twice, including a fine second following quite the incredible assist from Messi.
    But this all came after Luka Modric and Co were left furious with the award of the penalty for Argentina’s opener.
    Dominic Livakovic came charging out of the net and took out Alvarez, sending the striker tumbling to the ground.
    Argentina was awarded a penalty for the clash – which Messi scored – while Livakovic was booked for the challenge.
    Croatian midfielder Modric later slammed Orsato as “one of the worst” referees to step foot on the pitch, branding him a “disaster.”
    The team’s army of fans – including heartthrob Ivana – inevitably agreed with his condemnation after Croatia’s hopes for world glory were dashed.
    But the German-born beauty reminded her 2.8million followers that they weren’t going home empty-handed.
    She encouraged Croatians to take solace in the fact that they managed to sensationally knock five-time champs Brazil out.
    Taking to her Instagram story, she added: “How I feel after yesterday? To be honest, very disappointed and sad…
    “But then I say to myself: can you imagine how is Brazil doing right now, we kicked them out and Argentina is in the finals.
    “Remember: there is always someone who is in more pain than you.”
