Jake Paul‘s mum Pam has claimed she wants to punch Anthony Joshua‘s promoter Eddie Hearn following her son’s defeat last weekend.
Paul survived the early round of the fight in Florida against former heavyweight world champion Joshua.
He was eventually swatted aside with a brutal knockout blow which left him with a broken jaw.
Pam Stepnick, the mother of YouTubers Jake and Logan Paul, praised Joshua’s conduct in the aftermath of the fight.
She explained how Joshua had made his way through the crowd to apologise to her for the brutal ending to the contest.
Pam, however, hit out at Joshua’s promoter Hearn, who she had accused of looking ‘smug’ following the contest.

She accused Hearn, right, of being ‘smug’ and said that she wanted to ‘punch’ the promoter
‘I want to get in the ring and punch Eddie Hearn for instance, because I don’t like his smug face,’ she told the Impaulsive podcast.
‘He literally thinks he is better than everybody in the world.
‘Jake is over there struggling and he’s sitting over there smiling like he’s the cat that swallowed the canary.
‘Guess what, did he f***ing get in the ring.’
When asked whether she believed Hearn was ‘happy with what happened to Jake’, she continued her criticism of the promoter.
‘Of course, that’s sickening to me, that’s sick. I don’t like it,’ Pam continued.
‘Even Anthony Joshua had some class and apologised to me.
‘He worked his way through the crowd and came up to me and said “mum just know, it’s just boxing. It is just the fight game”.
Paul reportedly suffered a broken jaw when he fell to defeat against Joshua last week
Logan Paul, however, conceded that it was the ‘fight game’ and his brother may have ‘bitten off more than he could chew.’
It is not the first time Jake Paul’s mother has been vocal around one of her son’s fights.
She previously claimed she wanted to ‘kill Mike Tyson’ after the former heavyweight world champion slapped her son ahead of their fight last year.
Paul has reportedly suffered a parasymphysis fracture on the right-hand side of his jaw, as well as a fracture to the body of the mandible.
Due to the fracture running through the roots of Paul’s teeth, he is likely to require dental implants, with the procedure expected to take place roughly three months after the fractures have healed.
Paul may then need crowns fitted to the implants – a process that typically takes a further six to seven months – meaning it could be at least nine months before the influencer-turned-boxer even regains around 90 per cent of his jaw strength.
Paul and Joshua reportedly shared £140m from the fight last weekend.
