Paul’s ability to sell tickets and PPVs has seen Hall of Famer trainer Teddy Atlas liken him to an all-new “Money” Mayweather.

Atlas said on his YouTube channel: “He’s almost been an understudy of the great Floyd Mayweather, really, and that’s a positive thing.

“We’re not talking about as a fighter. We’re talking about in this business, as a businessman, as a matchmaker, as a manager, just as a smart calculated man.

“Jake Paul has been every bit of Floyd Mayweather.”

Paul has beaten ex-UFC champions Ben Askren, 38, Tyron Woodley, 40, and Anderson Silva, 47, in the last two years.

But he faces his first opponent with a recognised boxing record in Tommy Fury, 23, who twice pulled out of the grudge match before.

Atlas, Mike Tyson’s first coach, credited Paul, 26, for upping his class of opposition but claimed the American’s boxing potential is limited.

“There’s still risk. He deserves respect. There’s still a risk when he gets into that freakin’ ring.
