";They were a little weak. So, thank you!"

Amy's mocking of Paul came a little less than a week after the former Disney star made sexually-charged comments about her in an interview with ESPN.

When asked why he's only following the Askrens on Instagram, Paul said: "She thicc, bro. "With two Cs.

"Like T-h-i-c-c. She's real thicc. I don't know. just thought she was bad. So maybe after I beat Ben…"

Askren didn't take any offence to the comments, quote tweeting a video of the clip and saying: "This is laugh out loud awkward!!!

"But yes @jakepaul I find my wife very attractive also LOL."

Despite having never boxed professionally, former Bellator and ONE Championship welterweight king Askren has always predicted he'll register a seventh-round TKO victory over Paul.

That prediction has amused Paul, who said: "Go Google Ben Askren's striking. Hahaha. It's not going to go that long, it's not going to go that long.

"I don't even think he'll hit me. I haven't been hit one time in the face in my past two fights.

"So I haven't even been punched as pro boxer one time. Nate Robinson landed one body shot in a clinch.

"I don't think Ben Askren will even hit me. That's my prediction."

The pair prepare to settle the score this weekend, at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta.
