Adam Thomas asked if he'd return to Emmerdale
In the post, Adam Thomas wore an off-white sweatshirt and navy blue shorts as he sat on the edge of a boxing ring alongside Jake Paul, 27, who wore a red T-shirt and patterned shorts.
The pair raised a fist to the cameras and smiled for the photo, cementing their surprising friendship.
“Congrats to my boy @jakepaul last night,” the caption read. “Say what you want about this guy… but he knows how to put on a show!
"Nothing but respect… don’t get me wrong, it wasn't the best fight in the world, haha, but we all tuned in to watch it….
"No one got hurt; we didn’t have to pay for it, and they got paid!! Everyone wins," he added.

However, the post proved controversial, and Adam’s followers were divided over the pair’s friendship.
Some were completely baffled over the pairing, as one typed: “But I liked you, Adam. Why?.” Another commented: "Hell no."
On the other hand, some praised their friendship. “I bet he’s cool as off-camera fair play. He’s an awesome businessman who made millions and playing and doing a good job of playing bad guy respect to him,” wrote one.
“Everyone commenting, saying they used to like you, but because of this, they now don’t, which is crazy. It’s television; a show doesn't get so invested.”
In response to the mixed comments, Adam reposted the photo on his Instagram Story alongside another message: “Mad world how people can hate someone they’ve never met. Haha, these comments are hilarious. "
Jake has confidently addressed the swirling rumours about his astounding $90 million earnings from the highly publicised boxing match against the legendary Tyson.
In an electrifying showdown, he won unanimously by decision over the former two-time world heavyweight champion, who had stepped back into the ring as a "professional" for the first time in nearly two decades.
The fight has sparked considerable debate and criticism, particularly after Tyson disclosed a serious health scare he faced back in June.
Nevertheless, the hype surrounding this clash was undeniable, drawing millions of viewers eager to witness this historic event.
The streaming numbers on Netflix skyrocketed, and the box office performance at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, was nothing short of phenomenal.

The event generated a staggering $18,117,072 at the gate, obliterating the previous record for combat sports in Texas.
During a recent episode of his popular podcast, IMPAULSIVE, Logan Paul questioned his brother Jake about the rumoured earnings from his latest fight.
The 27-year-old fighter quickly dismissed the claim that he had made a staggering $90 million. When Logan probed further, inquiring, “Is it true you made $90 million from this fight?”, Jake clarified, “No, who said that? It’s not true.
"I made a lot of money, the most I’ve ever earned in my career, but it wasn’t $90 million.”
