Jake Paul moves quick for a big man.
'El Gallo' walks around at 220lbs and isn't required to do much sprinting in his sport of choice.

Yet the YouTuber-turned-boxer showed off his fast feet in a 40-yard dash attempt this weekend.
In a video uploaded to social media, Paul took to the football field to turn on the jets.
He was hand timed at 4.74 seconds, although he claims he is capable of a 4.6.
"I wanted a 4.6," said Paul. "NFL speed, baby. Next step is get signed."
The short sprint is a staple of the NFL Scouting Combine and is the perfect opportunity for wannabe pros to showcase their raw pace in front of coaches, scouts and front office executives.
While Paul's time is certainly impressive for a cruiserweight boxer, it is nowhere as fast as some of the NFL's most fleet footed stars.
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy holds the Combine record with a blistering 4.21 while John Ross of the Philadelphia Eagles comes in just behind at 4.22.
Paul might not be touching those numbers, but his time was quicker than the 4.80 Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes clocked back in 2017.
'The Problem Child' has been working on sprints in preparation for a foot race with streamer iShowSpeed.
Paul bet Speed $25,000 that he could beat him in the 40-yard dash

In an episode of BS with Jake Paul last year, the 28-year-old said: "I want to race Speed. In a 40-yard dash I beat Speed… let's do it. Speed, this is the call-out."
Speed was quick to respond. "Yo Jake, so I've seen a clip saying you want to race me for $25k," he said in a video call with Paul.
"Let's do it, bro. Let's run it," Paul responded.
"You know that's free money, right?" a confident Speed said.
"Yeah, for me. You're not that fast, you run like a 4.6," Paul fired back.
The pair then started to lay out the logistics of their race.

"Okay, let's go, let's race. Come on!" Speed said.
"Let's do it here in Puerto Rico because I'm about to start camp. I'll fly you out and everything," Paul proposed.
"Let's see, a free fly out, a free $25k... I'm down, let's go!" Speed responded.
"Let's get it," Paul said.
"This about to be the freest $25k I've ever made in my life," Speed concluded.
IShowSpeed narrowly loses $100k bet in race with worlds fastest man Noah Lyles - and faces embarrassing forfeit
Speed claims to have run a 4.4 in the 40-yard dash so he has every right to feel confident.
He recently challenged Olympic 100m champion Noah Lyles to a 50m race and lost by a narrow margin.
