BOXING legend Antonio Tarver called on Mike Tyson to set up a fight between him and YouTuber Jake Paul.

Paul moved to 2-0 in his professional career after comprehensively knocking out retired NBA star Nate Robinson.

But Tarver – who famously ended the reign of Roy Jones Jr – was not impressed by the performance.

And he wants to fight the 23-year-old internet sensation and stop the new age of outsiders venturing into the ring.

Tarver, 52, wrote on Instagram: "I really want to kick @jakepaul ass for what he did to @naterobinson last night and rid boxing of these clownsonce and for all.

"He fought a complete novice so fighting me shouldn’t be a problem… @miketyson make this fight."

Tarver last fought in 2015 with a split-decision defeat against Steve Cunningham.

He has recently been training Evander Holyfield, 58, helping the ex-heavyweight champion make a comeback of his own.

It inspired Tarver to think about lacing up the gloves again, with Jones' trainer revealing the pair have unfinished business.

Paul, on the other hand, is focussing on bringing MMA fighters over to boxing as he called out UFC star Conor McGregor and Dillon Danis.

He said: "I'm taking this seriously.

"There's a long list of opponents that I want.

"Conor McGregor, Dillon Danis, I'm gonna knock them both out."
