Jake Paul has been given a glimpse of what awaits him after potentially breaking his nose in sparring.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Youtuber-turned-boxer has stepped up his training by sparring with heavyweights ahead of his sanctioned fight with Anthony Joshua on December 19.<\/p>\n

Paul is expected to be on the end of a pummelling against the former two-time heavyweight champion, with Oleksandr Usyk raising serious fears<\/a> for his health.<\/p>\n

Joshua\u2019s decision to fight Paul has raised questions over the legitimacy of the bout. It is scheduled for eight three-minute rounds, with the Brit limited to weighing 245-pounds.<\/p>\n

Jake Paul suffers another sparring accident<\/h2>\n

Just days after taking to Instagram to\u00a0show off a black eye that Lawrence Okolie inflicted during a sparring session, Paul seems to have picked up another potentially serious incident.<\/p>\n

During a filmed interview with IFL TV, presenter Pat McAfee noticed Paul’s nose was out of shape.<\/p>\n

He asked: “You broke your nose? Is this new? I’ve just noticed your nose…”<\/p>\n

Paul responds: “It’s even more crooked, brother. I’m not going to lie, sparring with the heavyweights, my nose is a full couple of millimetres to the side.<\/p>\n

“A guy by the name of Frank Sanchez cracked it a little bit, so it definitely has a slight something in there. But yea… it’s bad.”<\/p>\n

Sanchez, 33, is a Cuban professional boxer who is a former\u00a0NABO\u00a0and\u00a0WBC\u00a0Continental Americas\u00a0heavyweight\u00a0champion.<\/p>\n

Fair play to Jake fighting AJ with his nose busted like that \ud83d\udc4f\ud83c\udffc<\/p>\n
