Carl Froch has issued a fresh challenge to Jake Paul, offering to face the YouTuber-turned-boxer in a charity fight.
The former super-middleweight champion has been a vocal critic of Paul's boxing career, repeatedly expressing his willingness to come out of retirement.
Following Paul's victory over Mike Tyson, the Nottingham fighter made his latest attempt to secure a showdown through a video call-out, promising to end Paul's boxing career.
Paul's team has now finally broken their silence on the challenge.
In his impassioned video message, Froch made his charitable intentions clear.
"I will fight for charity. Which part of that do you not understand?" the former champion declared.
His challenge took an aggressive tone as he continued: "I ain't begging for a payday, I'm begging to ram Jake Paul's teeth down the back of his f***ing throat. Boom. Game over."
Froch emphasised his desire to end Paul's career, stating: "Jake Paul's bulls***, fake, clown career over with one punch. That's all I'm begging for."
After months of silence, Paul's advisor Nakisa Bidarian has responded to Froch's challenge with specific conditions.
Speaking to The Sun, Bidarian said: "Sure Carl, show up with an offer that makes sense - since he's fighting for charity anyways - he's made it clear that he's going to donate 100 per cent of his earnings to charity."
Bidarian emphasised that any proposal must guarantee an eight-figure payment for Paul, who "drives the biggest numbers in the entire sport."
He added they would be "happy to have a conversation" if these conditions were met.
Bidarian dismissed the idea of approaching Froch first, highlighting the age factor.
"We're certainly not looking to come to the UK to offer a 47-year-old Carl Froch - who's never sold a pay-per-view in his life in the US which is the most important market - and make him an offer," he stated.
He reiterated the charitable aspect: "So, if and when they're ready to show us an offer that shows that he's 100 per cent donating all proceeds that he gets paid and any entities associated with him to charity."
Froch has not stepped into the ring since his memorable victory over George Groves in 2014.
LATEST SPORT NEWS:
Despite his age, the 47-year-old would likely present a more formidable challenge for Paul than his recent opponent Tyson.
Paul has yet to confirm his next fight for 2025, though several options are being considered.
A rematch with Tommy Fury remains a primary possibility for 'El Gallo'.
The American has also received unexpected world title opportunities from both Artur Beterbiev and Daniel Dubois.
