Jake Paul has taken to social media to insist he's not all that upset after his defeat to Tommy Fury.
The 6-1 (4 KOs) YouTuber-turned-boxer suffered the first defeat of his professional career on Sunday night, with the former Love Island star beating him by split decision.
Fury beat Paul by split decision
Due to his own loud-mouthed, trolling nature, Paul has received plenty of online backlash after finally losing.
However, he's not shied away from facing the music.
On fight night, Paul gave an interview in the ring and attended the press conference after his defeat.
He then also made a social media video addressing it and has put out several tweets since.
On Monday, he began to make light of the situation.
In a new video posted on his Instagram story, Paul filmed himself fake crying, then turning to the camera, smiling and putting his thumbs up.

He captioned it: "When you lost, but made $30million."
In an interview before the fight, Piers Morgan took the opportunity to ask the very blunt question of how much money Paul has earned throughout his career.
"A lot, I don't know," Paul replied with a smile.
"It gets to a point where you make so much that you don't even count it anymore, so I don't really know."

Morgan then pressed further, but Paul maintained the same stance, as he said: "I promise you Piers Morgan, I have no idea.
"I make money, lump sums, residuals, investments, equity, exits from companies, so the net worth is always going up and down and even moving with the markets, but I mean it when I say you stop paying attention at some point.
"For me, the money's great, but I really love boxing and this is what I was put on earth to do."
