In an additional clip that was uploaded by Paul to social media recently, the 27-year-old was seen lying shirtless on a sofa as he stacked some money on his fake belly.

"Mikey, Mikey, if you can last more than four rounds with me, I'll give you an extra $5 million,'' Paul was heard saying.
However, there was a catch, as he went on to say, "But, if you don't, then you have to get a tattoo that says I love Jake Paul. Deal or no deal?''
At a press conference, Mike Tyson was asked by a reporter if he believes his upcoming opponent, who is nearly 30 years younger, is taking the preparation for this fight seriously.
"I think he's taking it very seriously because his health depends on it," Tyson said, "I'm not looking past him. I'm not taking it lightly at all."
With this in mind, Tyson evidently is not underestimating "The Problem Child," as he has posted multiple workout videos, which show the 58-year-old still in shape.
