Jake Paul is receiving some backlash after a video was recently released that shows him dropping Deestroying of FaZe Clan in a sparring session.

In the sparring video, Paul doesn't look to be putting in a full effort, but still caught Deestroying with a combination that ends with a left-hook to the body that dropped the YouTuber to the mat. Deestroying, whose real name is Donald De La Haye, mentioned that despite 'The Problem Child' easing off on his strikes, he still had a lot of power behind them:

"Bro, I couldn't breathe. I really thought about what I did, my decision to step in the ring, he's a real boxer. Heavy a** handed, he's not even trying. First, he catches me across the head, bopped me. Then right there split my guard, smacked me right in the body, laid me out. I couldn't breathe. That boy said I had 22 seconds left, I'm good on that."

'The Problem Child's coach also commented and gave credit to the FaZe Clan member for showing up and sparring despite not having the experience, saying:

"Credit, he rolled up today in Puerto Rico, challenged the Problem Child Jake Paul, did his thing, did what he had to do, but what happened in there, Dee?"

The YouTuber-turned-boxer offered UFC lightweight Paddy Pimblett $1 million to spar him in Puerto Rico, but 'The Baddy' proposed a counteroffer that would have seen 'The Problem Child' meet him at the UFC Performance Institute instead.

Logan Paul threatens to sue Paddy Pimblett

Jake Paul wasn't the only one at odds with Paddy Pimblett during his fight week as his brother, Logan, also made headlines when he threatened to sue the UFC lightweight.

'The Maverick' put 'The Baddy' on blast during a recent episode of his podcast Impulsive for creating a comparison video that he believes misinforms the public on the contents of his Prime drinks. He mentioned that he could sue Pimblett for the video, saying:

"He lied in the video. He poured out sugar at one part to show Prime's two grams of sugar and he poured a f**k load of it. I could technically sue the f**k out of you for misinformation and that's a fact. You f**king lied." {1:36:30 - 1:36:44}
