Jake Paul sharpened his trash-talking tools this week … but it wasn’t with his next boxing opponent, Tommy Fury — the Problem Child traded verbal jabs with sports personality Bomani Jones in a heated interview.
The YouTuber-turned-pro boxer joined Jones’ “Game Theory” this week … and things went from 0 to 100 real quick.
In a clip from the HBO show, Bomani asked how the undefeated boxer would react if he ever loses a fight … and Jake made it clear he has zero intention of ever having to cross that bridge.
“I don’t plan on losing,” Paul said. “I don’t train to lose. I feel like that’s probably your mindset. A lot of people like to project their mindsets onto me.”
“I don’t know who the f–k you are”

Jones interjects and says that’s not the case — he was just genuinely curious to hear whether Paul would still be as interested in boxing if he takes his first L.
That’s when Jake gave the host a piece of his mind.
“I’mma be honest, bro, I don’t know who the f*** you are. My PR team set up this interview.”
But, it wasn’t one-sided — Jones clapped back with a shot of his own … saying, “All I know about you is that people don’t like you.”
