JAKE PAUL is set to make a huge change to his team by rehiring a boxing legend and former coach of his.
The YouTuber-turned boxer suffered defeat for the first time in his seven-bout prizefighting career in February.
He lost a split-decision to Tommy Fury in Saudi Arabia and has since revealed he will make additions to his camp.
And it appears one of those will be bringing back three-division champion Shane Mosley into the fray.
Mosley posted a picture with Paul on Instagram and hinted at a reunion between the two.
He captioned the post: "This is where the understanding of boxing for @jakepaul started now it's time to blossom in boxing to another level. We are about to level up."

Paul turned professional with Mosley in 2020 – training in Big Bear California – and went onto beat online rival AnEsonGib in one round.
But the relationship ended there as former cruiserweight title challenger BJ Flores took the reins.
Flores led Paul to five wins, against the likes of ex-MMA champions Ben Askren, 38, Tyron Woodley, 40, and Anderson Silva, 47.
But when the social media sensation faced a recognised boxer for the first time in Fury, 23, he was beaten.

And he confirmed there will be casualties within his setup with Flores and assistant coach Danny Smith facing the axe.
Bob Santos – the 2022 trainer of the year – has since been pictured in Paul's Puerto Rico training base.
