Anthony Joshua vs Jake Paul – Richard Riakporhe issues stark warning to ‘El Gallo’

Speaking to Sky Sports, Riakporhe gave his honest advice to Paul, offering him coaching advice for his fight against Joshua (28-4, 25 KOs):

“If I was coaching him, honestly speaking, I’d tell him to move and make sure he’s just moving his upper body, keeping his head off the line consistently and moving around, using the ring. 

“He wants to not get hit with that right hand. I’ll tell you that. If he gets hit with that right hand, even partially, he’s gone. It’s going to be the end of the fight, or the beginning of the end,” said Riakporhe, warning Paul.
