But his promotional partner Nakisa Bidarian refused to rule out remaining at heavyweight to sensationally fight the likes of Joshua.

Taylor told SunSport in Doha: “If Nakisa puts Jake in that position where he fights Anthony Joshua or Canelo or Dubois, he could seriously get his client hurt.READ MORE IN BOXING”So either he’s really delusional or he only gives a s*** about the money. “But once Jake has that fight, maybe he’ll come back down to earth and have a real talk whoever it’s with on that level.” Paul put on TWO STONE to fight Tyson at 16st 2lb but he looks ready to come back down to the 200lb cruiserweight limit of 14st 4lb.

He said: “The Jake fight is something we’ve wanted and there was talk of a coin toss, we said, ‘Fine, let’s do a coin toss.'”But the weights have to be fair. If you want 192lb on one side then we want 183lb on the other side. If you want 190, we’ll take 185.”Some that were the terms we gave, take-it-or-leave it, we’ll even fight in America in Vegas.
