Hasim Rahman Jr is going to 'seriously hurt' Jake Paul in their boxing match next month.

The pair will fight it out at Madison Square Garden in New York on August 6.

Boxing novice Paul goes into the battle of the two former sparring partners as a huge favourite despite his obvious lack of experience.

The YouTuber turned boxer recently caused a bit of a stir after he joked he was in hospital from 'carrying the promotion' of his upcoming fight with Rahman Jr.

And Rahman Jr - the son of former heavyweight champ Rahman Sr - is planning to inflict a whole world of pain on the divisive Paul as a result.

Rahman Jr, 31, told FightHype.com: “He’s going to get seriously hurt, he’s going to get seriously hurt in this fight.

"I’m going to hurt this man and all the stuff he’s been saying is just fuel to the fire.

"He picked the wrong person and like I said, I’m going to punish him on August 6.

Jake Paul fights Hasim Rahman Jr on August 6

"He’s a fraud, he don’t even know what he's talking about, he don’t even know what he's saying.

"I don’t know if he got people to tell him what to say but he looks stupid.

"How are you going to say you carrying the promotion but you not even giving me anything in return? What, I’m supposed to help you and do skits with you? I’m not into that.

"I’m not into none of that. I’m here to do my job, and my job is to separate him from his consciousness. So that’s what it’s going to be on August 6.”

Rahman then turned the direction of his ire to fellow boxers Rolly Romero and Chris Eubank Jr.

He added: “Anybody that’s not with me, they’re against me. So they can get it too.

"Chris Eubank, I got a little brother, he fights at 154, you can get that work if you want it. We're in Vegas, he be in Vegas, so that’ll be a big fight here. So he can get his a** kicked too, talking about ‘once you take care of Rahman.’

"Take care of Rahman? Boy, you crazy. You can say bye to the Canelo or whatever the f**k you think it’s going to set up, because I believe I’m going to retire Jake Paul.

“First of all, if we do anything with Rolly he has to undergo a mental health evaluation, because I think he’s not all the way there.

"Rolly would get slept. He's calling out Errol Spence and just doing ridiculous stuff. Do you know what Errol Spence would do to you, boy? You crazy.

“I’ll have some words for Rolly when I see him in person. He lives in Vegas so, you know, he came out his mouth incorrect and like I said, I’m real, so when I see him he’ll know what's up. We're going to see.”
