Aussie glamour girl Ebanie Bridges praises Jake Paul's boxing ability after he knocks out Mike Perry in grueling contest

Former world champion Ebanie Bridges was very impressed with Jake Paul as he added another MMA scalp to his collection after knocking out former UFC star Mike Perry in six rounds.

Perry, a last-minute replacement for Mike Tyson after the boxing icon pulled out of his proposed showdown with Paul, put up a valiant showing and even tested the YouTube sensation's chin at times in a grueling contest.

Though while he was certainly no pushover, the 32-year-old Bare Knuckle Fighting champion was no match for his 27-year-old foe in Tampa.

After dropping him in the first and second round, Paul floored Perry to the point of no return with a blistering combination in the sixth.

Somehow, Perry still dragged himself back to his feet for a third time despite the devastating punishment he had just shipped.

Yet as he stumbled around the ring, the referee rightly waved off the contest and Paul celebrated his latest highlight-reel knockout.

Bridges liked what she saw from Paul on Sunday (AEST) and took to social media to post her thoughts.

'Jake Paul’s looking great! Great set ups and discipline,' she posted on X.

Somebody pointed out Paul's weight advantage in the comments and the 'Blonde Bomber' replied: 'Yeah but it’s the thinking and set ups like he isn’t just bullying him with weight he boxing him and using iq'.

After the fight, Bridges noted that lots of big-named boxers were tuning in for Paul's fight, despite what some may say.

'Look at all the “real” pro boxers tweeting about Jake Paul everyone tunes in and talks lol,' she posted.

A fan replied that Paul also gives female boxers good opportunities, to which she replied: '(He) gives a lot of people opportunities'. 

Paul's victory over Perry means the coast is now clear for him to fight Tyson in November.

However, Paul was quick to pay tribute to his brave opponent on the night for showing plenty of heart.

'He's tough as nails,' he said about Perry. 'I'm sorry it took so long. I just hit too hard, but he took a lot of damage. That's a W baby, I'm so excited.'

As well as telling Tyson to 'sign the contract' ahead of their proposed November bout, Paul also called out UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Alex Pereira.

'Alex Pereira, you said you wanna box... I'm the king of this, come over and we can make it happen,' he said.

'I want you Alex Pereira.'

Paul has now racked up four straight victories since slumping to the first defeat of his short-lived professional career against Tommy Fury last year.
