He remains a big fan of the sport and is friends with professional fighters Lyndon Arthur and Zelfa Barrett.
Bugzy – who made his acting debut in Guy Ritchie’s 2019 movie The Gentlemen – continues to train in boxing as part of his fitness regime.
In a recent Instagram post, the singer showed off his hand speed on the pads with a trainer hammering in hooks.
Fans flooded the comment section to demand fights against YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul and American legend Floyd Mayweather.

One reacted: “I hope Jake Paul calls you out, so you can teach him a lesson.”
Another said: “You have a boxing match ASAP bro you can box. Go slap a youtuber about and get a couple milli.”

Paul, 27, is 10-1 in the boxing ring and faces boxing great Mike Tyson, 58, on November 15 in his biggest yet most controversial fight.
Mayweather, 47, meanwhile officially retired in 2017 but continues to box in exhibition bouts.
Bugzy claimed on Eddie Hearns’s podcast that he has turned down boxing bouts before but was approached to face Mayweather.
He said: “Before I even thought of, ‘Hold on, am I getting my head punched in there all night long?’ I just said, ‘Yeah.’
“He said, ‘Floyd Sr likes your physique, he said you look strong.’ So then we start talking to them about the weight, like, ‘What do you want me to weigh on this night?’
“And they’re like, ‘Yeah, you can come in heavier.’ And I thought, ‘Flipping heck, that gives me a puncher’s chance.’”
Mayweather has shared the ring with the likes of Paul’s brother Logan before and Bugzy gives himself a puncher’s chance in the bout.
He said: “That Logan Paul, I reckon he’s a decent boxer, he looks OK, he’s an athlete.
“However, it looked like he caught Floyd with a shot and after it, it didn’t look like he knew exactly what to do. If I caught Floyd with a shot, I’d know what to do.
“So I’d have thought one or two things are gonna happen, I’m gonna get punched up all night and I’m not going to be able to touch him or I do touch him, if I touch him, I hurt him.
“If I hurt him, with the right training I reckon I could follow it up with a second phase attack and potentally get him out of there.
“So I thought, feels like Floyd is still taking chances if he’s saying I can come in a bit heavier.
“Obviously, I’m a busy bee, and if I’m going to take a slot out of my life to live as a proper boxer, train for flipping 12 weeks to go in a boxing ring and risk it all, I’m going to try and make it happen.
“So in my long song I just mention it and I just say, ‘If Floyd really wants to fight, I’ll walk the walk.’
“These YouTube guys and all that, I don’t fancy putting my name next to that. If I’m going to step out of my lane it has to really make sense.”
