“She’s one of the most pure-hearted human beings that I have met in my life, so genuine and she has just changed my perspective and helped me coming out of this loss when I was in a dark place.
“She really was there talking about her losses and was able to relate to those things and what I was going through.
“So she’s been such a blessing; Jutta if you’re watching this hi, you’re amazing.”
Paul, 26, looked set to invoke his rematch clause with Fury, 23, following the success of their fight, which sold over 800,000 PPVs.

But he has since announced his return will come against ex-UFC welterweight Nate Diaz, 37, on August 5 in Texas.
Although Paul warned revenge is still on his mind as he looks to settle the score with Fury later down the line.
He said: “I have been in the gym since the day I got back from Saudi.I literally got off the flight, came home, and went on a four-mile jog.
“I’ve been working out every single day, six days a week, filled with vengeance to come back and take what’s mine because I know I can beat Tommy.
“That was the worst version of me possible. It just wasn’t my night, he was the better man, he had an amazing performance, and congrats to Tommy for that.
“But I wanna come back and take what’s mine from that kid. I hope he enjoys it. Tommy, I hope you’re enjoying this victory.
“You know, you earned it. Respect. Enjoy it for as long as possible because you’re not going to have the taste of victory on your tongue for a while.”

When they returned to continue the face-off, Brooke then pushed the makeshift table into Danielka’s legs, before the Poland-based influencer tried to lift up her chair and thrust it towards Brooke.
The YouTube fighters came to blows after Danielka turned up to the event wearing a jumper with an X-rated picture of Brooke plastered over it.
Brooke will enter the fight as the only one with any fighting experience.
She has two boxing contests under her belt against AJ Bunker and Faith Ordway, stopping the latter in the first round.
Brooke has also been training with IBF bantamweight champion Ebanie Bridges.
However, her novice rival Ola will have a huge size advantage.
Fans were left in hysterics after seeing the size difference between them as they were drawn together in the quarter-final of the “High Stakes” influencer tournament.
However, Brooke insists she will come out on top.
She said: “I like the challenge. You’re beautiful, but I wouldn’t mind smashing your face in. I’m 5’1”, I’m always gonna be the shorter woman.

“But I’ve always been prepping to spar someone taller. She’s a lot slimmer build so hopefully she’s a lot less strong and you can just bully her in the ring.
“It’s gonna be a challenge. I’m here to set out that I am the best pound-for-pound female influencer boxer and that’s exactly what I’m gonna do.” More

Promoter Kalle Sauerland told Pro Boxing Fans: “Had a great meeting with (Fury’s dad) John, we both like the fight.
“It’s about getting a deal done now. Look, John seems to be like a very simple person to deal with which I like, straight shooter.

And Fury himself teased fighting a “bigger” name than Paul, fuelling speculation of facing KSI.
But first the British prankster-turned prizefighter must beat nightclub tycoon and 9-0 boxer Fournier, 40.
Sauerland added: “Let’s get a deal done first. I’m sure they’ve got a few other options on the table as well.
“I hope we can get it done but at the same time we’ve got to focus on the Fournier fight.
“It’s not unsimilar to the situation Jake Paul was in and we don’t want to make the same mistakes and we won’t.”
