Rahman, who has not fought since he lost to McKenzie Morrison in April, will now instead take on ex-NFL defensive end and MMA fighter Hardy.

Rahman Jr vs Hardy: What has been said?

Rahman Jr will be competing on KSI's 'Misfit Boxing' company and is now backing the Brit to beat Paul after sparring with both fighters.

'The Rock' told  "I thought KSI was terrible, I thought he was not very good.

"But I came out here and I've seen what he's working on and how he's working, man KSI's work rate is severely underrated, severely underrated.

"And I think if he keeps working hard, by the time he gets to a Jake fight, I just think he wins.

"I think his engine is a lot better than the engine Jake has .Jake fights at a slow pace - I mean Jake's fights put me to sleep - he's incredibly boring.

"On the contrary KSI, he fights at a fast pace, a high level, he's always bringing it.

"He fights with more passion than what Jake fight with and I give him the edge to him."
