  • Jake Paul propositions ‘Angry Bagel Guy’ to $100k boxing match – Dexerto

    Jake Paul propositions ‘Angry Bagel Guy’ to $100k boxing match Jake ‘n Logan, YouTube / lvsportsnetwork.comIf you’re a social media junkie, you’ve likely heard of the “angry bagel guy,” who went viral after popping off on female employees at a bagel shop in July – and now, that same guy is taking his internet fame to the next level by calling out big-name YouTubers. The “angry bagel guy,” real name Chris Morgan, published a Tweet challenging YouTube stars Jake and Logan Paul, making sure to call them a few choice words in what seemed to be a boxing request. “First Logan Paul tells TMZ he’d fight me, soon after goes ghost,” Morgan wrote. “Now I’m hearing Jake Paul has something to say about me, as well. These two are world class PUSSYBOYS. Stop talking shit about me to other people you cowards.” First @LoganPaul tells @TMZ he’d fight me, soon after goes ghost. Now I’m hearing @jakepaul has something to say about me as well. These two are world class PUSSYBOYS. Stop talking shit about me to other people you cowards. — Chris Morgan (@ChrisMorganThe1) August 29, 2019 Of course, Morgan’s Tweet didn’t go unanswered: Jake Paul responded in kind, even inviting the height-challenged internet-outrage star to visit him in Los Angeles for a sparring match – and even put $100,000 up on his chances. “Pull up,” the Team 10 founder replied. “You in LA? I’ll spar you for $100,000. Loser has to make love to a bagel.” pull up u in la? i’ll spar you for $100,000 loser has to make love to a bagel https://t.co/xkSzRpfEoH — Logan Pauls Brother (@jakepaul) August 30, 2019 As if Jake’s response wasn’t humiliating enough, Logan Paul published a slew of hilarious insults toward Morgan that poked fun at his short stature – the very reason for his viral bagel blowup last month. “Why are you so short tempered?” Logan wrote. “I have roommates who dwarf you.” “Clearly we don’t see eye to eye on this.” “Just realized how puny all of this is.” As Morgan mentioned in his heated Tweet, this wouldn’t be the first time Logan has openly mocked him after the debacle: the YouTuber also claimed that he would be up to throw down with the bagel bucko in an interview with TMZ sports in late July. “Fuck yeah, I’ll fight him,” Paul said when asked if he’d touch gloves with Morgan. “Yeah, I got it.” 600https://www.instagram.com/p/BqF5AQXlWkL/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link With news of an undercard for the KSI vs Logan Paul rematch still up in the air, there’s no telling which internet celebs will actually make the cut – but fans and critics alike would probably get a kick out of watching the “Bagel Boss” face off with Jake Paul in the ring.

  • Jake Paul receives huge backlash after driving blindfolded for ‘Bird Box challenge’ video – Dexerto

    Jake Paul receives huge backlash after driving blindfolded for ‘Bird Box challenge’ video YouTube star Jake Paul is in trouble again after posting a new video in which he drives a car while blindfolded for the ‘Bird Box’ challenge. The Bird Box challenge is named after the movie of the same name released on Netflix, which sees the protagonists use blindfolds to ensure they don’t look at supernatural entities that kill those who catch a glimpse. Those who partake in the challenge attempt to walk around blindfolded like the characters from Bird Box, with the challenge becoming popular on platforms such as YouTube, Instagram and TikTok. While many who participate walk around their homes or gardens, Paul took the challenge to a dangerous new level, which saw the star walking in traffic alongside fellow YouTuber George Janko and even getting behind the wheel of a vehicle. The start of the video saw a blindfolded Paul speed down what seems to be his driveway in a truck while wearing the blindfold, crashing into trash cans. Later on, Paul appears to drive his car out onto a busy street, although it’s possible that these parts of the video have been faked. The American did include a disclaimer in the description of the video that stated the “stunts” were carried out by trained professionals, however many on social media have criticised the star for showing himself driving without the ability to see, saying that it promotes behaviour that could endanger the lives of himself and others to his young audience. Netflix have asked those taking part in the Bird Box challenge to be careful, tweeting: “Please do not hurt yourselves with this Bird Box challenge. We don’t know how this started and we appreciate the love, but do not end up in the hospital due to memes.” Can’t believe I have to say this, but: PLEASE DO NOT HURT YOURSELVES WITH THIS BIRD BOX CHALLENGE. We don’t know how this started, and we appreciate the love, but Boy and Girl have just one wish for 2019 and it is that you not end up in the hospital due to memes. — Netflix US (@netflix) January 2, 2019 The video posted by Paul was demonitized on January 7 by YouTube, but the video has now been removed from his channel entirely. It’s unclear whether the YouTuber decided to delete the video himself, or if YouTube took it down for breaking their Community Guidlines which state videos cannot encourage dangerous activities.

  • Jake Paul promises to KO Conor McGregor in MMA after new training video surfaces – Dexerto

    Jake Paul promises to KO Conor McGregor in MMA after new training video surfaces Instagram/Conor McGregor / Jake PaulJake Paul wasn’t impressed with Conor McGregor’s form and technique after watching his latest training video and promised to knock him out in either boxing or mixed martial arts. Jake has been challenging and taunting Conor McGregor for almost two years now. However, he finally got his attention after the latest challenge. The UFC superstar didn’t rule out a fight, saying: “Never say never.” Sensing the possibility of a super fight brewing between them, Jake ramped up his efforts to hone in on the opportunity. He roasted McGregor’s form and technique in a new training video and vowed to knock him out. The new training video, which McGregor posted all over social media, shows him landing three-punch combinations while hitting the pads. “Keeping it tasty!” he said, implying the flurry of punches packs a sting. Jake wasn’t impressed with what he saw, though. “This is embarrassing,” he scoffed. “Your chin is wide open with no head movement.” He also backed it up with a prediction, saying: “I would KO Conor in boxing or MMA.” I would KO Conor in boxing or MMA. Right hand of God. https://t.co/bsHDiiQvuv — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) March 11, 2022 Although it looks like a fight between them is closer than ever, Dana White inadvertently ruled out the possibility of it happening anytime soon by revealing his desire for McGregor to complete his trilogy against Nate Diaz. Meanwhile, Jake has other candidates coming after him, including UFC Welterweight Champion Kamaru Usman and rising star Paddy Pimblett. However, it seems like he’s gunning for the McGregor fight.

  • Jake Paul promises to “shut up” boxing critics with Tommy Fury fight – Dexerto

    Jake Paul promises to “shut up” boxing critics with Tommy Fury fight YouTube: Jake PaulJake Paul has promised to shut up his critics when he finally steps into the ring with Tommy Fury, claiming that there will be no way to criticize his boxing skills in the aftermath. Ever since Jake Paul first stepped into the professional boxing arena, plenty of critics have been urging him to fight a ‘real’ boxer instead of athletes and fighters from other backgrounds. Jake was finally set to answer that call when he was first scheduled to fight Tommy Fury, but has been well documented, the youngest Fury brother pulled out of that fight due to injury. After Jake knocked out Tyron Woodley – who stepped in for Fury – he again promised to fight a real boxer in his next bout. While plenty of boxers have thrown their hat into the ring to fight Jake, the social media star is finally scheduled to fight Tommy on August 6, and he’s pretty certain the critics will have nothing to say after it’s all over. With Fury being the challenge of a ‘real’ boxer that many fans and critics have wanted to see Jake take on, the YouTuber-turned-boxer says he’s giving “the people what they want” with the fight. “So here is a young kid, same age, same height, same reach, and with a better record than me,” Jake said, according to BoxingScene. “He’s been boxing his entire life, his brother is the heavyweight champion of the world. He has the name, he has the following. He has star power. It’s the perfect fight.” The fight, according to Jake, will be the end of all criticism of his currently undefeated record too. “When I win by knockout over Tommy Fury, people will have nothing left to say,” he added. “All the people, all the media who have doubted me and had things to say about me years ago ‘Oh Jake Paul is bad for boxing, I’m going to shut you all the f**k up. You will put respect on my name. You wanted a real boxer? No f**king problem.” While Fury may not have massive names on his boxing record, he is undefeated, and has way more in-ring experience than Jake. And, as the YouTuber puts it, will be his toughest test to date. There will be plenty of interest in the fight, seeing as the pair have been feuding online for quite some time, but it’s too early to call either way.

  • Jake Paul predicts brutal outcome for KSI vs Tommy Fury – Dexerto

    Jake Paul predicts brutal outcome for KSI vs Tommy Fury YouTube: Impaulsive / LadBibleTVAccording to Jake Paul, KSI doesn’t stand a chance in his upcoming showdown with Tommy Fury, claiming the British YouTube star will be knocked out cold. In a recent interview, the YouTuber-turned-boxer pulled no punches in predicting KSI‘s fate for the boxing match slated for October 14 in Manchester, England. “I think Tommy knocks him out in like less than five rounds,” Paul told Donagh Corby. “I mean [KSI] is doing these gimmick WWE fights up until now. Tommy is his first real test, but who knows, he might throw an elbow on Tommy, too.” Paul’s “elbow” comment is a direct reference to KSI’s controversial fight against Joe Fournier, where KSI’s winning knockout was later classified as a ‘no contest’ due to an illegal elbow strike. This decision sparked an online backlash against KSI, with some fans and critics accusing him of cheating. Paul’s prediction carries additional weight as he himself faced Tommy Fury in a back-and-forth eight-round battle in Saudi Arabia earlier this year. Despite a decent effort that saw Paul land some solid blows, Fury’s boxing fundamentals ultimately led him to a split-decision victory. Paul tasted defeat for the first time in his boxing career, while Fury moved his record to a formidable 9-0. But KSI is confident ahead of his bout with Fury, taking to Instagram to write: “October 14, I’m doing what Jake Paul couldn’t and beating Tommy Fury on the biggest night in crossover boxing history, at Manchester’s AO Arena, live on DAZN PPV on the Prime card!” Fury quickly hit back with his own comment, stating, “You’re getting knocked out in front of my home crowd. This is gonna be fun.” KSI has increasingly dabbled in the boxing world, including two significant fights with Logan Paul, Jake’s elder brother. However, this match against Fury is arguably his toughest yet. The upcoming boxing match will fall under the Misfits Boxing label, a promotion started by KSI himself. The event will be broadcast live on DAZN pay-per-view.

  • Jake Paul predicts Man United result vs Arsenal after Liverpool thrashing – Dexerto

    Jake Paul predicts Man United result vs Arsenal after Liverpool thrashing Instagram: jakepaul/Manchester United/ArsenalJake Paul has become somewhat of a soccer fan throughout 2022, becoming an avid follower of the English Premier League — and he’s given his predictions for Manchester United’s top 4 battle against Arsenal after the Red Devils took a thumping in Liverpool. Jake Paul is still a recent entrant into the wild world that is the Premier League, having started watching the biggest teams facing off in domestic and European competitions. He even admitted to being a Liverpool fan and shared his love for Golden Boot frontrunner Mo Salah, who slotted home two goals as Liverpool beat long-time rivals Manchester United 4-0 at Anfield on April 19. 🚨 @JakePaul is a Liverpool fan 🚨 pic.twitter.com/vkifG9HGaB — FootballJOE (@FootballJOE) April 13, 2022 After Liverpool secured the “great win” over United, overtaking Manchester City in the title race, Jake shared his thoughts on the match, the state of United, and his thoughts on their upcoming match against Arsenal. “Man United ain’t Man United without Ronaldo,” he said, as the record-breaking striker missed the game following the tragic passing of his newborn son. “But they still gonna kick Arsenal’s a*s on Saturday.” Liverpool controlling this entire game. Great win. Man United ain’t Man United without Ronaldo. But they still gonna kick Arsenals ass on Saturday. — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) April 19, 2022 It’s unclear whether Ronaldo will be back on the pitch by the time Manchester United face off against Arsenal on April 23, but it doesn’t appear as though Jake sees it as an issue. Both teams are on pretty poor runs of form, despite the fact that they’re competing for a place in Europe’s premier competition, the Champions League. The last time the two teams met, United won 3-2 following a brace from Ronaldo, but with both teams in dire straits at the time of writing (including four losses in the last five for Arsenal), Jake’s optimism for Manchester United probably far exceeds that even of the club’s fans.

  • Jake Paul praises Nate Diaz for helping set up their “massive fight” with UFC 279 win – Dexerto

    Jake Paul praises Nate Diaz for helping set up their “massive fight” with UFC 279 win Instagram: Jake Paul / Instagram: NateDiaz209Jake Paul was impressed by Nate Diaz at UFC 279, calling his submission win over veteran Tony Ferguson “damn near flawless” and thanking him for helping to set up their “massive fight” down the line. The past week in the world of combat sports has certainly been one to remember. On one hand, we had social media star Jake Paul announce his biggest fight yet as he steps into the boxing ring on October 29 against MMA icon Anderson Silva. On the other hand, Nate Diaz shook things up with a pivotal win against Tony Ferguson at UFC 279, reaching the end of his contract in the process. With his fourth-round submission win, Diaz officially became a free agent. After years of public disputes with the leading MMA promotion, even requesting his release on Twitter, he’s now able to go where he likes. One likely destination appears to be a boxing ring. Having gone back and forth over the years, Diaz and Paul have long wanted to make the matchup official. While various setbacks prevented it from happening then, it’s now entirely possible and Paul was quick to praise the Stockton legend for his efforts in getting out of his contract. “He was entertaining, he was fun, he had great striking, and then he finished with the submission. It was damn near flawless,” Paul told The Schmo in regard to the final Diaz UFC fight, for now. He even rated his performance a “10/10.” Now free to “take over” another sport, as Diaz indicated in his post-fight interview, Paul is more confident than ever the two will eventually lock horns. “It sets up a massive fight for us one day,” he continued. With Silva next in line, however, it won’t happen right away. Admittedly, there are a “lot of hurdles” both Paul and Diaz have to overcome in these next few months. “One of these hurdles is a f**king massive one: Anderson Silva,” he told ESPN’s Marc Raimondi. Given it’s his biggest opponent yet and a true legend of the scene, Paul’s full attention is on him, rather than thinking ahead to the Diaz spectacle. “Anderson is a superstar. In terms of hype and PPVs and media attention, this is the biggest fight. Finally, I don’t have to do all the promoting. “So I’m focused on October 29, but I do in the back of my head want that fight [with Diaz] and I think the fans want that fight.” If he’s able to get through the former UFC champion, the longest reigning champ in UFC history for that matter, Diaz could very well be next in line for Paul. But for now, it’s all eyes on Silva as he prepares to take on The Spider.

  • Jake Paul praises UFC’s Tony Ferguson for calling out “drug dealer” Dana White – Dexerto

    Jake Paul praises UFC’s Tony Ferguson for calling out “drug dealer” Dana White Wikimedia commons: Andrius Petrucenia/YouTube: Jake PaulJake Paul’s ongoing battle with Dana White over fighter pay in the UFC has found new support in MMA legend Tony Ferguson. Reborn as a man of the people, Jake Paul has been tenaciously pushing Dana White to up fighter pay and offer healthcare for months. With recent rumors that it’s the only thing standing in the way of the much-hyped Conor McGregor vs. Jake Paul bout, his refusal to back down has caused a huge stir within the mixed martial arts world. Taking to Twitter to up the ante and show dissent from within the MMA community, clarifying that JP is not alone in his claims, the ex-Disney star turned boxer reposted a video of UFC veteran Tony Ferguson discussing the same issue. “Don’t listen to me, listen to a UFC fighter,” Paul said to his 4.3million followers. Paul brought the direct attacks against White back into the public sphere, claiming “Dana White is a billionaire while fighters are itching and clawing to make ends meet.” In the press conference in focus, Tony Ferguson starts by saying “I think we’re underpaid personally”. Contrasting with Dana’s assertations that boxers are overpaid. Ferguson continues venting, stating that Dana White actively blocks his attempts to leave the UFC or engage in any other kind of sport. Reaching a peak of frustration, the clip ends with Ferguson lashing out at the UFC head. “I wanna go do all these ‘coupla’ things. But then I have this guy right here, acting like a f**king drug dealer telling me I can’t do this sh*t.” Explaining the reasoning behind his rage at the situation, Ferguson clarified: “I wanna go make more money for my family.” Don’t listen to me, listen to a UFC fighter, @tonyfergusonXT, who has the courage to speak up. Dana White is a billionaire while fighters are itching and clawing to make ends meet. “Dana White the drug dealer.” pic.twitter.com/fyYb4COwQZ — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) May 4, 2022 With the pay dispute being a hot topic as of late, comments and retweets flooded Jake Paul’s post, though not all were positive. “I get where’s he’s coming from, but it’s a little hard to feel bad for a guy who made $750k in his last fight.” Videos like this only feed the fire Jake Paul has built under Dana and the UFC.

  • Jake Paul pitches $1m fight offer to UFC legend Michael Bisping after heated exchange – Dexerto

    Jake Paul pitches $1m fight offer to UFC legend Michael Bisping after heated exchange IG: Jake Paul / Michael LispingFollowing a heated exchange with UFC legend turned commentator Michael Bisping on social media, Jake Paul pitched a $1 million fight offer to him and claimed he’d knock him out. Jake Paul’s transition into MMA seems all but inevitable at this point. The Problem Child has been linked to fights against Colby Covington, Conor McGregor, Jorge Masvidal, Kamaru Usman, Paddy Pimblett, and more. On April 15, he threw another name into the mix by pitching a $1 million fight offer to Michael Bisping after the UFC Hall of Famer poked fun at him for picking fights against people who aren’t in his weight class. After seeing an article claiming he was on Jake’s ‘hit list,’ Bisping couldn’t help but laugh and even threw a jab. “Come on Jake Paul,” he said. “You do know I’m about your size? Surely that excludes me from your ‘hit list.’” “I would knock you out worse than Hendo,” responded Jake, referring to the brutal knockout he received from Dan Henderson in 2009. “You’re an easy fight. But show me you can get licensed, and I will show you $1M plus PPV.” To poke the bear even more, Jake also mocked Bisping for having a glass eye caused by an injury he sustained in 2013. He included the eye glance emoji in his message and wrote: “Using this emoji because Bisping can’t use it!” I would knock you out worse than Hendo. You’re an easy fight. But show me you can get licensed and I will show you $1M plus PPV… 👀 (using this emoji because Bisping can’t use it lololololol) https://t.co/gu0tL9Pn0R — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) April 15, 2022 Bisping didn’t respond directly. However, he followed it up with a video of him training, along with the caption: “Keeping the engine running.” So, if a fight somehow happens, it’s clear that he still has the fitness. Meanwhile, Jake has also teased potential boxing matches against Floyd Mayweather and Mike Tyson and debuting as a professional wrestler for the WWE alongside his brother Logan. The options are endless.

  • Jake Paul polls fans for possible boxing rematch opponent – Dexerto

    Jake Paul polls fans for possible boxing rematch opponent BRENDAN TIEGER, YOUTUBE / FaZe Sensei, Soulja Boy – InstagramYouTube stars KSI and Logan Paul are set to touch gloves once more at the Los Angeles Staples Center on November 9 – but this time, no other YouTubers will make an appearance on the undercard, as told by promoter Eddie Hearn. Instead, Hearn claimed that he wants an “all pro” undercard, arguing that he wants to get new eyes on boxing by “showing them the greatness of our sport.” However, he appeared to backtrack on this statement after the rematch press conference on September 14, clarifying that he wants the bout to seem legitimate in the eyes of boxing media and for potential YouTube fighters to face off with actual boxing pros. This news incited a big reaction from Jake Paul, who accused KSI of sabotaging his chances on the undercard and begged Hearn for a chance to shine at the rematch – but with Hearn suggesting a separate fight at a later date, the YouTuber is looking for other options.

  • Jake Paul gives possible response to rumors of cheating on Tana Mongeau – Dexerto

    Jake Paul gives possible response to rumors of cheating on Tana Mongeau Jake Paul, YouTube / Tana Mongeau, InstagramDespite YouTube stars Jake Paul and Tana Mongeau “unofficially” tying the knot in late July, rumors are already spreading of possible infidelity, as Paul was spotted grabbing lunch with ex-girlfriend Erika Costell in late August. As incriminating photos of the two went viral online, Mongeau appeared to hint at a response to the drama, posting a cryptic Tweet in wake of the scandal. “Lmao wtf,” she wrote, further addressing the issue on her Instagram story where she remixed the lyrics to Ariana Grande’s “Thank U, Next,” singing, “…Even actually got married and for Jake I’m so thankful, except when he goes out with his ex and I find out on Twitter.” While Paul remained relatively silent on the matter, the social media star may have given a response to the scandal on August 20 with an equally cryptic Tweet. “Wasn’t me,” Paul posted, inciting a slew of comments referencing Shaggy’s 2000 “It Wasn’t Me” single. With this in mind, Paul may have been admitting to cheating on Mongeau, as Shaggy’s hit song is all about making up excuses after being caught sleeping with another woman. However, Jake may have likewise been genuinely denying that he was in the photos with Costell – a possibility backed up by his older brother, Logan Paul. “Are we SURE that’s Jake…?” Logan wrote of the incident, prompting an avalanche of jokes in the comments section doubting the sincerity of his post This wouldn’t be the first time Paul has addressed rumors of cheating on his wife, either: the YouTuber squashed claims that he was sleeping with other women during an August 14 vlog, where he claimed he was merely working with other girls on the set of his upcoming music video, “Crush on U.” (Timestamp: 8:12 for mobile viewers) Jake’s latest response to the drama follows news that the fight at his wedding was completely staged, with Mongeau herself admitting that their union wasn’t exactly legal, arguing that “legally binding yourself to someone takes away the love.” With the couple’s friends and family in the dark as to the true nature of their relationship, Jake and Tana’s marriage has been nothing if not confusing for fans and critics alike, with the Costell-related scandal marking the most recent debacle for the couple after going public with their romance.

    Jake Paul vs Tyron Woodley fight earnings revealed Amanda Wescott/SHOWTIMENow that Jake Paul and Tyron Woodley have thrown hands, here’s a look at how much money every fighter on the boxing card walked away with. Paul and Woodley finally stepped inside a boxing ring and tried to settle their beef on August 29. Although the social media star had his hand raised through a split decision, the feud appears to be far from over. After selling thousands of tickets at the Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse in Ohio, along with a yet unclear number of Pay Per View buys, how much did each fighter take home? Here’s a full rundown on the final fight purses from the Jake Paul vs Tyron Woodley boxing event. How much did Jake Paul & Tyron Woodley make from their fight? After making high six figures for his knockout win over Ben Askren earlier in the year, Paul appears to have seen a huge increase in salary for the Woodley event. The internet celebrity made $2,000,000 from the fight with Woodley, as per a report from MMAFighting who got those figures from the Ohio State Athletic Commission. This figure is just his guarantee for fighting, never mind his pay-per-view split or sponsor bonuses. Meanwhile, Woodley – who was supposed to only make $500,000 according to his agent – also walked away with $2,00,000. View this post on Instagram Following the win, Jake posted a cryptic Instagram story that stated he was a ‘tenth of the way to becoming a billionaire’ – suggesting he’s likely in for a massive payday once everything shakes out.

  • Jake Paul says Paddy Pimblett is getting “pimped” after revealing UFC Fight Night payday – Dexerto

    Jake Paul says Paddy Pimblett is getting “pimped” after revealing UFC Fight Night payday YouTube/UFC/Instagram/JakePaulFollowing on from the bombshell revelation that Paddy “The Baddy” Pimblett was on a ’12-and-12 deal’ for his record-breaking showing in London, Jake Paul has taken to Twitter saying that the English fighter was “pimped” for his work. UFC fight-purses are the kind of thing that the public generally doesn’t have easy access to. This hasn’t stopped Paddy Pimblett from talking about how much he was making for his bout at the O2 arena in London, however. In a recent interview with Barstool Sports, the 27-year old rising star revealed the exact amount he made for his most recent fight against Kazula Vargas. “12 and 12,” he confirmed. “So 12k to show and 12k to win.” Paddy Pimblett getting pimped. Who manages these guys? https://t.co/GCXZ2EJ6Ds — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) March 23, 2022 While $24,000 may seem like a healthy sum for a night’s work, the amount of time spent preparing for a fight, and the incredible stress placed upon the individual during that time, certainly make the amount seem far removed from the high-spending dream that other members of the UFC have sold the lifestyle to be – looking at you McGregor. This amount of money also pales in comparison to the amount pulled in by the UFC for the Fight Night event. A stunning $4.5 million dollars was made on the night. The highest single-day gate revenue for a sporting event at the O2 Arena. This is in so small way due to the work of Paddy Pimblett. A firm crowd favorite and entertainer extraordinaire. With Jake Paul’s recent pushes for Dana White to increase the pay for fighters in the UFC, as well as provide healthcare for those putting their bodies on the line, he took no time to lambast officials and managers about the amount of money the fighters are making. Taking to Twitter, Paul made his thoughts undeniably clear: “Paddy Pimblett getting pimped. Who manages these guys?” A point to note is that in addition to the purse paid, Paddy Pimblett also made a $50,000 bonus from the bout. Showing a solid level of humility, the Liverpudlian fighter had very little to say about his thoughts on the purse. “It goes up after every fight, but you’re in a contract, so it’s whenever they want to offer me a new one, they offer me a new one, it’s just one of those things.”

  • Jake Paul ‘pained’ by Logan not wanting to do business with him – Dexerto

    Jake Paul ‘pained’ by Logan not wanting to do business with him YouTube: Cavinder TwinsJake Paul has revealed during a recent interview that he is “pained’ by older brother Logan Paul not wanting to be a part of any of his businesses. Over the last few years, Logan and Jake Paul have gone from just uploading YouTube videos to becoming well known boxers and wrestlers across the world. They’ve started their own businesses as well, with Logan Paul joining forces with KSI to start Prime and Jake Paul launching his boxing company Most Valuable Promotions and gambling app Betr. The influencer brothers have yet to launch a business together, though, and Jake Paul recently revealed how that makes him feel. Jake Paul wants to run a business alongside Logan On August 11, Jake Paul joined YouTubers the Cavinder Twins for the debut of their podcast “Twin Talk.” In the episode, the hosts shared how they enjoy working together as sisters which prompted Jake to share his thoughts. “One of the things that pains me the most is that we don’t do any business together,” Jake shared. “I’ve tried to get him involved with MVP, I’ve tried to give him equity in everything I’m doing and he just like doesn’t want to. I think he wants to create his own story and his own name, but it bothers me. “I yearn for that so much for us to like be on the same team and it just has always gotten shut down.” (Topic starts at 34:21) Logan hasn’t responded publicly to his younger brother’s comments as of writing, but we may never know exactly why Logan doesn’t want to work with Jake. Logan is partnered with Barstool Bets, which is a direct competitor to Jake’s newest company Betr, so that might be why he isn’t working with him on that. During an interview with ET, Jake opened up about how “Hollywood Madness” got in between him and Logan, although they’ve become much closer in recent years.

  • Jake Paul outlines his conditions to fight Nate Diaz in final UFC bout – Dexerto

    Jake Paul outlines his conditions to fight Nate Diaz in final UFC bout Instagram: Jake Paul/Nate DiazYouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul is open to fighting Nate Diaz inside the Octagon for his final UFC fight, but he wants Dana White to stump up with some pretty big demands. Ever since he started making waves in the boxing world, defeating two of MMA stars in Ben Askren and Tyron Woodley, Jake Paul has had one eye on making his debut inside the UFC. The social media star has gotten into a war of words with some of the promotion’s biggest names – including UFC president Dana White, Conor McGregor, and Nate Diaz – and has spoken repeatedly about wanting to get inside the cage. While he’s traded verbal jabs with McGregor, it’s actually Nate that Jake has seemingly gotten closest to fighting, but the Stockton native still has one more fight in the UFC to complete before his contract comes to an end. Jake Paul wants Nate Diaz UFC fight, but there’s a catch Once his UFC contract is up, Nate is free to fight Jake in the boxing ring – and he’s shown plenty of interest in doing so – but Jake is also willing to step inside the cage. Speaking to ESPN about his upcoming fight, Jake was quizzed on potentially fighting Nate later down the line, especially after Dana White says the fight makes sense. “Look, I’ll be Nate Diaz’s last fight in the UFC,” Jake answered. “I’ll throw on the MMA gloves and fight him, for free, as long as Dana White increases the minimum fighter pay to $50k and gives them health care benefits. That was my deal. I think the Nate Diaz fight should happen, if it doesn’t happen with that offer then it’ll probably happen one day in a boxing match.” Timestamp of 16:55 The social media phenom agreed that the matchup “makes sense” for both sides, whether it happens inside the boxing ring or the Octagon. While he may be looking to the future, Jake still has a tricky test to overcome on August 6 as he takes on Hasim Rahman Jr. at Madison Square Garden. Once those waters have been navigated, then he can look to the future a bit more seriously.

  • Jake Paul & Paddy Pimblett face-off finally set as fight rumors persist – Dexerto

    Jake Paul & Paddy Pimblett face-off finally set as fight rumors persist YouTube: Mola/Jake PaulJake Paul and Paddy ‘The Baddy’ Pimblett have seemingly inked a date for when they’ll come face to face, but it still remains to be seen if they’ll actually square off in a fight. Ever since he defeated Anderson ‘The Spider’ Silva at the end of October, Jake Paul has been on the hunt for his next opponent. While Tommy Fury appeared to be in the frame for that, ‘The Problem Child’ has gone after a few other names as well. Rising UFC star Paddy ‘The Baddy’ Pimblett has gotten into Jake’s crosshairs, with the two going back and forth in some trash talk. It even got to a point where Jake offered the Scouser $1 million for a sparring session. Pimblett, who isn’t exactly renowned for his boxing skills, was open to making it happen while he’s in Las Vegas for UFC 282. Jake, though, wants to do it in Puerto Rico when he’s in his training camp. However, it appears the two have finally set a date for when they’ll come face to face. Jake Paul and Paddy Pimblett face to face date set That was revealed by Pimblett in his latest YouTube vlog, documenting his pre-fight process in getting ready to travel from Liverpool to Vegas. He addressed Jake’s claims about an apparent sparring session throughout the video, tipping his cap to the YouTuber-turned-boxer for what he’s achieved. He also confirmed Jake’s claims that they’ll be meeting in January. “The only thing with Jake Paul is that he wants it on his terms, he’ll never have it with someone on an even playing field,” Pimblett said, noting he’s never really been a boxer. “Jake Paul is booked in to do my podcast on the 5th of January. He’s not stupid, he knows what he’s doing. Give him his due, he’s quite smart.” Timestamp of 3:10 There’s been no indication that the two will square off soon, especially given that Pimblett is focusing on a big-time pay-per-view clash. It’s certainly something that fans are eager to see, and both men are all about creating content, so maybe we’ll see something happen when they come face to face.

  • Jake Paul opens up on Floyd Mayweather brawl: “I didn’t think he was gonna get that mad” – Dexerto

    Jake Paul opens up on Floyd Mayweather brawl: “I didn’t think he was gonna get that mad” Instagram: Floyd Mayweather / Jake PaulJake Paul admitted he didn’t think Floyd Mayweather would get so worked up when he stole his hat at the press conference, describing it as an “absurd moment” and “hilarious.” It’s been a while since Jake Paul scuffled with Floyd Mayweather and stole his hat at the press conference of his fight against Logan Paul, a move that some people believe is taking too much attention away from the actual fight. But despite being labeled a “shambles of a situation” by Conor McGregor, Jake opened up about the incident on Chael Sonnen’s ‘You’re Welcome’ podcast and admitted he didn’t expect Floyd to get so mad about it. “It was sort of a sensory overload with everything that was going on,” he said. “There were eight guys around me, all grabbing me [and] some hitting me in the leg. I’m holding onto his hat for dear life. That was the main thing that they were concerned about.” By the time they finally managed to get the hat, Floyd was furious. “He just comes running at me, and he’s throwing punches over the security guard, and I’m literally just like, ‘oh wow, this is crazy.’” “But the funny thing about it was none of the punches were even coming close to me at that point, and he actually punched his own security guard in the side of the head. Absurd moment, hilarious. I didn’t think he was gonna get that mad over a hat.” The relevant part of the video starts at 4:17. Logan and Floyd are set to finally square off at Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium on June 6, 2021. Jake will almost certainly make an appearance, even though rumors that he’s been banned from attending are floating around.

  • Jake Paul opens up on meeting Erika Costell despite Tana Mongeu marriage – Dexerto

    Jake Paul opens up on meeting Erika Costell despite Tana Mongeu marriage Top YouTuber Jake Paul tied the knot with fiance Tana Mongeau in late July – but despite putting a ring on one of the net’s biggest stars, he was caught out with his ex-girlfriend shortly thereafter. Pictures flooded the net of what appeared to be Paul and model Erika Costell grabbing lunch in mid-August, sending fans into a frenzy since the Team 10 founder had just said his vows not a few weeks earlier. Despite the speculation, Jake denied that he was ever in the pictures, with older brother Logan Paul corroborating his story and claiming that a fan had edited the photo using deepfake technology. However, it looks like Jake is backing down on his previous statements, as told on his Instagram story in response to a fan’s question concerning his alleged meet-up. According to Paul, he and Costell continue to have a friendly relationship in spite of fan concerns in light of his marriage to Mongeau. “Exes can be friends right?” Jake replied. “Or just because ‘stans’ don’t like that and get butt hurt, we’re not supposed to be?” Although it would seem that these exes are on good terms, it doesn’t look like Costell is a fan of his new relationship, as she threw a little shade toward Jake and Tana’s marriage during an interview around the same time. “…we also got fake married in Vegas,” Erika said of her past with Jake. “Sounds a little familiar. …I think they like the controversy. I think it gets them going. I don’t know, because I don’t do it, but to each their own. It’s working, yeah.” Even Mongeau expressed a bit of exasperation after learning of their hangout in August, subtweeting the issue with an “lol wtf” and later admitting that she was only made aware of the meeting thanks to social media. In spite of the drama, Mongeau claims that she loves her hubby “very much,” so it doesn’t look like “Jana” is going away anytime soon – even if fans aren’t happy with he and Costell remaining on amicable terms.

  • Jake Paul opens talks for next boxing fight in August vs surprise opponent – Dexerto

    Jake Paul opens talks for next boxing fight in August vs surprise opponent YouTube: Showtime SportsJake Paul has apparently opened talks with an opponent for his return to the boxing ring in August, however, they’re not exactly a former boxer or MMA star. When Jake Paul confirmed that he’d be making his return to boxing in August, rumors and speculation started to swirl about who might just be his next opponent. The social media star dropped a ‘hit list’ of his own, including the likes of boxing icons Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather and Julio Cesar Chavez Jr, as well as former UFC champion Michael Bisping. While the former boxers have stayed silent on the potential fight, Jake and Bisping have talked about making it happen despite the Brit’s long-standing eye injury. With that fight unlikely to happen, the social media star has apparently turned his attention to former Rugby World Cup winner Sonny Bill Williams, with talks apparently being opened between the two recently. Williams, 36, hails from New Zealand and boxed throughout his time as a professional Rugby player – stopping in 2015. He returned to the ring in 2021, picking up a victory over Waikato Falefehi, pushing his overall record to 9-0. After being named on Jake’s ‘hit list’, the New Zealander confirmed his interest in the fight and has since opened talks with Jake’s camp about making it happen. “I’m maybe looking at August, getting back in the ring,” Williams told Nine and Stan Sports in Australia. “Jake Paul, his people have reached out to mine and they’re talking so who knows. The main thing is I’m very excited and very grateful to be back in the ring, on Stan, boxing.” Looks like I’m on the hit list 🥴 I’m not gonna hate on this guy at all as I respect what he’s done. I also really respect his skillset as a boxer. But if he wants some he can get it! @jakepaul Yours respectfully – your first loss 🥊✊🏽 pic.twitter.com/wuGpZsyWD8— Sonny Bill Williams (@SonnyBWilliams) April 14, 2022 In the last few months, Jake has been challenged by many fans, pundits, and fighters to fight a ‘real’ boxer in his return to the ring – someone who has dedicated their life to the sport. While Williams might not tick that box completely, he has got a steady history in the sport and has proven to be handy enough in the ring. Though, we’ll just have to wait and see what happens.

  • Jake Paul opens up about relationship with Alissa Violet & Logan Paul in final episode of Shane Dawson’s docuseries – Dexerto

    Jake Paul opens up about relationship with Alissa Violet & Logan Paul in final episode of Shane Dawson’s docuseries YouTuber Jake Paul has opened up about his alleged ex-girlfriend Alissa Violet and her relationship with his brother, Logan Paul, in the final episode of Shane Dawson’s documentary series. Jake admitted that his relationship with Violet had been turbulent, and that both YouTubers had done things to hurt each other in the process. Read More: Have Logan Paul and Chloe Bennet split up? – However, he also claimed that Violet had slept with Logan in order to return the hurt that he had allegedly been making her feel – as well as to potentially split the Paul brothers apart. “Alissa wanted me to find out about it,” he stated. “She wanted me to have the reaction that I did. That was her way of hurting me. I think she wanted to split Logan and I up.” Jake also admitted to giving her a thirty-day period to move out of the Team 10 house following the incident, but claimed that she had stayed forty days over the initial period – which ultimately led him to kick her out. He also stated that he was afraid to speak on the drama at all for fear of causing beef between himself and his brother. “I just don’t want to hurt anybody,” he said in response to Shane. He also felt that his current girlfriend, Erika Costell, had to “teach him how to love,” as he claimed that his trust had been completely broken by his brother for sleeping with Violet. This episode marks the very last in Shane’s eight-part series over Jake Paul, and has been met with critical acclaim and criticism alike.

  • Jake Paul predicts Olivia Rodrigo will be the next Selena Gomez – Dexerto

    Jake Paul predicts Olivia Rodrigo will be the next Selena Gomez Instagram: Jake Paul, Olivia RodrigoYouTuber and boxing superstar Jake Paul has called former Disney collaborator Olivia Rodrigo, the next “Selena Gomez” as he responds to the popstar’s comments about him. These days Jake Paul is making waves outside his YouTube career, by offering beatdowns in the world of boxing. Having walked away as the victor in his Tyron Woodley fight, the future for Paul is bright. Now, the boxer has reflected on his time with former Disney co-star Olivia Rodrigo, after she offered her praise for Paul. Jake Paul knew Olivia Rodrigo had “something special” It has been quite some time since Jake Paul and Olivia Rodrigo both starred in Bizaardvark, as Paul departed the show in 2017. Since then, the pair have gone on to achieve stardom in their career paths. Speaking to the LA Times, Rodrigo said “He called my success. God, my publicist would not appreciate me saying this. He was very nice to me.” In separate interviews with Access Hollywood and Entertainment Tonight respectively, Paul took the chance to respond to Rodrigo’s comments: “She was just so amazing at singing. I said you’re the next Selena Gomez, I’m gonna brag about knowing you someday.” Paul also added that ” Olivia just had something special” and “she was an amazing actor” during their time together on the Disney Channel. While Rodrigo continues to dominate the charts with her debut album Sour, Paul hopes that “she can walk me out to one of my fights one day.” Despite detractors alleging that the Tyron Woodley exhibition was rigged, anticipation for Jake Paul’s next fight is heating up. Boxing fans are speculating who Paul could defeat in the future. Who will step into the ring?

  • Jake Paul officially named best influencer boxer in world rankings – Dexerto

    Jake Paul officially named best influencer boxer in world rankings Instagram: Jake PaulJake Paul has, officially, been named the world’s best influencer boxer as he now tops the world rankings ahead of long-time rival KSI and his brother Logan Paul. As influencer boxing has become increasingly popular over the last few years, a couple of content creators have taken things far beyond the levels it first started at when YouTubers were just settling their differences inside the ring. Jake Paul has been at the forefront of those raising the bar, as he’s gotten involved with the professional fight game, taking on athletes and actual fighters. Given how he’s sold out arenas and knocked out MMA fighters, the ‘Problem Child’ has always led the way past the best influencer boxer in the eyes of the fans. At last, though, he’s now got the official recognition as well. Jake Paul named best influencer boxer in the world On July 24, the Pro Boxing Association – which sanctions professional and influencer fights – finally put out a rankings list for the influencer side of things. Unsurprisingly, Jake tops the PBA’s world rankings and clocks in ahead of his longtime rival KSI, who has to settle for second spot right now. AnEsonGib, KSI’s fellow Brit, sits in third place ahead of Austin McBroom and Logan Paul who are fourth and fifth respectively. FaZe Clan’s Temperrr and Blueface round out the world-level rankings, with other influencers not being rated on the same level. The likes of Alex Wassabi and Bryce Hall are ranked at a level below, which the PBA is calling the ‘international’ level. Like all other boxing rankings, the placements are determined by different factors – including wins, losses, quality of opponent, and beyond. With a few influencer events happening in August, we could well see some changes in these rankings, especially if Jake losses to Hasim Rahman Jr. and KSI beats Alex Wassabi. So, we’ll have to keep an eye on things.

  • Jake Paul offers to retire from boxing with UFC challenge to Dana White – Dexerto

    Jake Paul offers to retire from boxing with UFC challenge to Dana White YouTube: Jake Paul/Mac LifeJake Paul has offered to retire immediately from boxing if Dana White can meet a few conditions, including giving him a fight in the UFC against Jorge Masvidal. Over the last year or so, Jake Paul has set his sights on the UFC and Dana White as he’s constantly taken jabs at the premier MMA organization. The ‘Problem Child’ has called out a number of UFC stars for fights including Conor McGregor and Jorge Masvidal, and while he’s offered to step inside the Octagon, he hasn’t done so just yet. Though, he’s not giving up on it. When he’s not fighting, Jake has been campaigning for better fighter pay in both boxing and MMA, and he’s open to hanging up the gloves for good if White matches his specific conditions for making changes. Jake Paul offers to retire from boxing for UFC clash with Jorge Masvidal That’s right, Jake range in the New Year by offering to retire from boxing with immediate effect if Dana White granted him a fight inside the Octagon and improved things for long-time fighters. “Happy New Year Dana White. Here is a real challenge for you,” the YouTuber-turned-boxer tweeted on January 1st, with the wish of a fight in the UFC and three other conditions listed in his offer. On top of a fight with Masvidal, Jake wants the UFC to lift fighter pay to a minimum of $50k, give fighters 50% of the company’s revenue, and provide long-term healthcare for all fighters like the NFL does for former players. Jake set a deadline of January 6 for White to agree to the terms, and then implement the changes by the end of March. As of writing, though, it doesn’t appear as if they’ll be matched. As it stands, it looks as if Jake will be returning to the boxing ring in February after his coach BJ Flores invited some guests to his next bout via social media. So, don’t count on that retirement happening anytime soon.

Jake Paul is going to be stepping back into the ring this summer with the goal of improving to 6-0 following a KO victory against former UFC champion Tyron Woodley in their rematch. While he has no opponent set, The Problem Child is looking to book other matches for his pay-per-view and seems to have his eyes set on Will Smith and Chris Rock following their viral confrontation at The Oscars. In a series of posts, Paul expressed his interest in getting the two added to his boxing event and is willing to fork out some serious cash to do so.

Earlier in March, he said he would give $30m to Kanye West and Pete Davidson each after the two’s feud over Kim Kardashian reached new highs. So far, neither party has responded to the offer, but seeing as Chris Rock isn’t pressing charges against the Best Actor winner, it’s unlikely he will be willing to step into the ring against Will Smith.

  • Jake Paul offers to fight “maggot” Dillon Danis if Logan pulls out – Dexerto

    Jake Paul offers to fight “maggot” Dillon Danis if Logan pulls out BS w/ Jake PaulJake Paul has offered to step in and fight Dillon Danis if, for some reason, his brother Logan can’t make the fight after the chaos in the pre-fight face-to-face. The beef between the Paul brothers – Logan and Jake – and Dillon Danis has been bubbling over for a few years. Jake offered to fight the former UFC fighter back in 2020 as he was trying to get a fight with Conor McGregor, but he didn’t make either of those happen. Fast forward to 2023 and Logan is finally set to step into the ring and fight Dillon on the highly-anticipated Prime card. The build-up to the fight has been intensely personal, with Danis going after Logan’s fiancee, Nina Agdal, which has prompted a lawsuit. Things took another turn when Logan and Dillon met in the pre-fight face-to-face as the mixed martial artist threw a microphone at the YouTuber’s head. That caused a gash above his eye which was bleeding profusely. Jake Paul open to fighting Dillon Danis if Logan Paul can’t While Logan has said that the fight is still on, Dillon has claimed otherwise – suggesting on October 13 that Logan has also missed weight at the official weigh-ins. Well, if Logan can’t go, Jake is ready to step in. “I will always have my brother’s back. I chose not to respond to the puppet’s countless tweets as it would only amplify his harassment,” he tweeted on October 13. “But make no mistake, if Logan needed me to step in, I would take great joy in knocking that maggot out. See you soon.” There had been some concerns that Jake wouldn’t be in Manchester for the fight, with Logan suggesting it would be a “hostile” environment for him seeing as KSI and Tommy Fury fans will be in attendance. It remains to be seen if he’d need to strap the gloves on, but as of now, it’s his brother that is going to war with Dillon.

  • Jake Paul offers to hire Wade Plem after explosive fallout with KSI – Dexerto

    Jake Paul offers to hire Wade Plem after explosive fallout with KSI YouTube: BS w/ Jake Paul, JJ OlatunjiJake Paul has offered to hire YouTuber and former Misfits Boxing host Wade Plem after the creator had an explosive falling out with KSI over his thoughts on the Tommy Fury rematch. KSI has officially cut ties with YouTuber Wade Plem (of ‘The W.A.D.E. Concept’) following a fiery rant on Twitter on March 20. The drama began after Plem discussed the possibility of KSI vs Jake Paul as opposed to Paul’s upcoming rematch with Tommy Fury. According to Plem, it’s unlikely fans will ever see Jake vs KSI actually happen, and predicted the Fury rematch might sell more tickets than the long-awaited KSI bout. “We heard from Jake in the IMPAULSIVE podcast, he does not think that the KSI fight sells like a Tommy Fury rematch and a Floyd Mayweather fight,” Plem explained in a YouTube video. “And I don’t know that I can disagree with him right now.” KSI took issue with Plem’s thoughts on the subject and lashed out at him on Twitter, calling the YouTuber “two-faced” and “fake,” among a plethora of other insults. Since then, it’s been confirmed that Plem was officially fired from Misfits — but he might have a new job already, if Jake Paul has anything to say about it. Jake Paul clashes with KSI amid fiery Twitter feud with Wade Plem Hours after the Twitter exchange, ‘The Problem Child’ weighed in on the situation, calling KSI an “insecure clown.” “Wade is quality,” he argued. “Plays it down the middle. Says things about me I don’t like, but that just means he’s keeping his opinions real. Now, back to my vacation.” KSI hit back at Jake with one of his older tweets that said, “get rid of anyone who plays both sides” — but Jake was quick to turn the tables on his rival. “This you?….talking about a REPORTER that worked DAZN shows? You are regressing maturity wise. You remind me of me when I was 19, but you about to be 30. Apologize to Wade and fire the unprofessional manager,” Paul wrote. That’s not all; Paul’s company, Most Valuable Promotions, published a tweet appearing to hint that Plem would be joining them for Jake’s next fight alongside The MMA Hour’s Ariel Helwani. “Does this mean MVP’s broadcast partner for Jake Paul’s next fight can get Ariel Helwani and Wade Plem? Let’s go!!!” They later pushed out another post, where they wrote: “We look forward to having our broadcast partner(s) negotiate to secure Wade Plem’s services as part of the MVP &/or PFL event Broadcast Team for future events.” Now, it looks like Plem has officially moved on; Jake Paul retweeted a post from Mirror Fighting’s Donagh Corby saying that DAZN and PFL both confirmed to the outlet that Plem will be hosting PFL Newcastle later this month. For now, it’s unclear where Plem’s future lies in influencer-boxing, but it’s obvious that Jake Paul and MVP are happy to secure him as talent in wake of his sudden beef with KSI.

  • Jake Paul offers Luis Pineda sparring match against co-host after KSI remarks – Dexerto

    Jake Paul offers Luis Pineda sparring match against co-host after KSI remarks YouTube: BS w/ Jake Paul / JJ OlatunjiYouTube star Jake Paul has just offered to fly out Mexican pro boxer Luis Pineda to spar against his podcast co-host, D-Cut, after KSI made some biting remarks about the Team Paul member. Jake Paul’s beef with KSI continues to escalate after the British YouTuber’s double-victory in his ‘two fights, one night’ event on August 27. After taking out both rapper ‘Swarmz’ and Mexican fighter Luis Pineda, KSI is on top of the world and ready for his next challenge… one of which could be a bout against Jake Paul sometime next year. However, Jake Paul is upping the ante in a big way after his rival from across the pond threw some insults toward his girlfriend, Julia Rose, and the co-host of his ‘BS’ podcast, D-Cut. “Your BS podcast is s**t,” KSI said in a pointed tweet. “Views are poor for your standards. Your co-hosts are boring and have zero personality. Logan Paul’s podcast s**ts on yours.” Paul didn’t take too kindly to this verbal thrashing and called out the boxer directly in the latest episode of his BS podcast, saying that he’s working on flying Luis Pineda out to Puerto Rico to spar against D-Cut as a means to show up KSI. “We are actually in contact with Luis Pineda’s team, and we are hoping to fly him out here to Puerto Rico to spar D-Cut, because I think that D-Cut can knock out Luis Pineda faster than KSI did. And D-Cut has zero boxing experience.” “You wanna roast me about my personality on the internet, but we’re just gonna expose you for how s**ty of a boxer you actually are,” D-Cut interjected. (Topic begins at 6:45) Jake Paul challenges KSI for PRIME Hydration ownership This exchange comes right on the heels of Jake Paul challenging both KSI and his own brother, Logan Paul, asking to become a third owner of their PRIME Hydration beverage brand if he beats KSI in the ring. While KSI didn’t seem to think Paul had much faith in his own big talk, fans will just have to wait and see if Pineda takes ‘The Problem Child’ up on his offer — and how that particular sparring match will actually go down, if it happens.

  • Jake Paul offers rematch to “his son” Tommy Fury – Dexerto

    Jake Paul offers rematch to “his son” Tommy Fury YouTube: Jake PaulJake Paul has laid out a rematch offer to Tommy Fury as the British boxer appears to be having issues lining up a fight with KSI, but it wouldn’t happen in 2023. Back at the end of February, Jake Paul and Tommy Fury finally settled their long-standing beef when they finally fought in Saudi Arabia. If you’ve been living under a rock and missed that result, Tommy won via split decision after Jake scored a late knockdown. There has been plenty of talk about a rematch being in the offing too, with Jake naturally wanting to get revenge on his longtime rival. Initially, rumors stated they were looking to fight again in July. However, that was shelved when Jake agreed to a fight with Nate Diaz for August 5. On the flip side, Tommy has seemingly been lined up as KSI’s next opponent, but the two Brits have been struggling to get a deal done. Jake Fury offers Tommy Fury rematch for 2024 As a result, Jake has swooped in and offered Fury a rematch at a later date, while also taking a few swipes at KSI in the process. “This clown…tried to fight Dildo Dan who has never boxed and put a rehydration clause on him. Fought a 40-year-old who hadn’t fought for 3 years and put a rehydration clause on him before elbowing him. Now trying to squeeze Tommy. I elevated Tommy, my son is now worth a lot more than the $1.5M offers you making,” he said, aiming some digs at KSI. “Tommy, February we run it back.” As it stands, Tommy hasn’t responded to either of the two YouTube stars, with his last tweet coming back at the start of May when he called both of them “delusional.” KSI has also disputed Jake’s claim that he’s offered $1.5m to fight Tommy, biting back and saying his hype has “died” since the loss to Tommy. It remains to be seen as to who he’ll fight first, if either of them, at this point.

  • Jake Paul offered Olympic boxer as Tommy Fury replacement with fight in doubt – Dexerto

    Jake Paul offered Olympic boxer as Tommy Fury replacement with fight in doubt Instagram: Jake PaulWith his fight against Tommy Fury seemingly on the ropes, Jake Paul has been offered the chance to fight a former Olympian – and some fans are desperate to see it happen. When their long-awaited fight was canceled at the end of 2021, many fans thought they’d never get to see Jake Paul and Tommy Fury square off inside the boxing ring. As Fury pulled out with injury, and Jake beat Tyron Woodley, the YouTuber-turned-boxer claimed he only had eyes for bigger things and that he’d wait a while before fighting Tommy. Well, the pair were scheduled to clash at Madison Square Garden on August 6th, but Tommy has had some trouble getting into the United States. The fight has yet to be called off, but Jake has claimed he’s “moving on” and looking for another opponent. And, one former Olympian has been offered up as a possible alternative. As Jake tweeted out that he was moving on, Matchroom Boxing’s rising star Cheavon Clark tweeted that his “passport was ready” and indicated that he was willing to make the trip across the Atlantic. Eddie Hearn, who previously offered Jake the chance to fight Clark during the Katie Taylor vs Amanda Serrano press scrums, reiterated that offer. “Jake Paul, 2-0 and ready!” the boxing promoter tweeted, referencing Jake’s willingness to fight someone with less than 10 fights. Plenty of fans quickly suggested it would be an easy night’s work for Clark, but that he didn’t match Jake’s desire to take on someone with name value – even if he is a ‘real boxer’. Unlike some other supposed challengers, Clark does match up with Jake in the weight department, seeing as they’re both in the Cruiserweight range. The 31-year-old has under 10 professional bouts, but he does have a storied amateur career. As noted, he competed at the 2020 Olympics, but didn’t medal. However, he has had success at the Commonwealth Games and stacked European Championships. It remains to be seen as to whether or not Jake will actually fight Tommy this summer, but there should be a few more interesting propositions like Clark if he isn’t able to fight his long-time rival.

The Problem Child has been a big pain for Dana White over the last year, constantly challenging the UFC’s top fighters while they’re under contract. Jake’s rise up the boxing ladder has resulted in two victories over former MMA stars in the form of Ben Askren and a recent split-decision win over Tyron Woodley. Now, on September 15, Jake Paul responded to Dana White daring him to fight Anderson Silva while refusing to let him duke it out with Jorge Masvidal. . @danawhite why you so scared to get embarrassed? pic.twitter.com/xehnZaDva4 — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) September 15, 2021 “I want your star talent. Your ‘in their prime’ strikers so I can exploit their lack of boxing ability,” Jake said. “So let’s do this: Me vs Jorge Masvidal and Amanda Serrano vs Amanda Nunes.” What makes Jake think Dana would let this happen? Well, Paul attached quite the stipulation. If he and his friend Serrano were to lose, he would leave the UFC alone for good. However, if Jake were to win, he would have Dana let his fighters duke it out with him going forward. The question now is: How confident is Dana? “Why you so scared to get embarrassed?” he asked, tagging White. So far, the UFC boss has yet to respond, but needless to say, this is quite the gauntlet being thrown down. Amanda Nunes is one of the greatest female fighters of all time and currently a double champion, so having her battle Serrano would be a treat. As for Masvidal, he’s the top choice for The Problem Child and could prove to be a legitimate challenge for the young upstart. We’ll have to see what happens, but we could be looking at one of the most incredible boxing cards in history if Dana accepts.

  • Jake Paul needs to learn lesson from Hasim Rahman & Tommy Fury canceled fights – Dexerto

    Jake Paul needs to learn lesson from Hasim Rahman & Tommy Fury canceled fights Despite Jake Paul’s three failed attempts to enter the ring with a “real boxer”, the sport of boxing needs the influencer’s presence – just not on a professional level. By now, you know the drill. Jake Paul, the Disney star turned controversial YouTuber turned ‘problem child’ boxer has been eager to prove his 5-0 records enough to make him a legitimate competitor. However, none of his opponents have been professional boxers. Yes, they’ve been star athletes – some even former MMA champions – but none have been trained in the art of boxing. This has led Paul to make multiple failed attempts to fight opponents of a higher caliber. Jake Paul has planned and promoted three fights with professional boxers, all of which end up being canceled. Two fights with Tommy Fury failed to come to fruition, and the most recent cancelation was with Hasim Rahman Jr. Regardless, Paul doesn’t need to fight real boxers as much as the sport needs him to fight influencers and celebrities. Boxing needs Jake’s drama Boxing’s main issue is the lack of an overarching storyline. Everyone loves an underdog, a villain, a down-on-their-luck hero; things that boxing in its current era has lacked. But that was until Jake Paul came along. Even when his older brother Logan, KSI, and droves of other TikTok/YouTube influencers started to box, none of them had an impact on the sport outside of their amateur fights. But when Jake started to box real athletes and loudly proclaimed he was a “real boxer”, that’s when a broader audience started to take notice of ‘the problem child’, and in tandem, Paul’s own fanbase began to turn their eyes toward professional boxing. The louder he got, and the more opponents he beat, the more professional boxers wanted a piece of Jake Paul. Not to prove they could beat the undefeated, but to put the YouTuber from Ohio in his place. This unified disdain for Paul gave boxing its villain, but his resiliency gave influencers their champion. But as Paul gears up to fight real boxers, cracks begin to form. Spectators lose interest as is apparent when looking at the reception of his fight announcements. He receives fractions of the number of interactions he would when announcing a fight against a celebrity opponent. However, when the drama returns via a cancellation, the passions for hating and supporting Paul reignite. Suddenly, those who didn’t care about the Paul vs Rahman Jr. fight come out of the woodwork to vehemently defend their camp. The same goes for when WBC president Mauricio Sulaiman announced Jake would earn a WBC rank if he beat Rahman. An uproar from fans for and against the notion shook the internet. Pro boxers weighed in saying Paul didn’t deserve a rank with only six fights under his belt, while others praised him for the achievement. Jake’s tapping the wrong tree Boxing needs Jake Paul to bring the attention and drama the sport has lacked, but Paul doesn’t need to be a professional. In fact, the better career move for Paul – and boxing as a whole – would be if he stuck to celebrity fights. Take the KSI vs Alex Wassabi fight announcement for example. The first tweet promoting the fight received just under 150K likes. Far more than the ~20K likes that five different tweets earned when announcing Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury. UFC President Dana White recently stated that Paul needs better people around him who know how to promote a fight. But I’d argue Paul doesn’t need to fight professional boxers at all. He needs to stick to boxing influencers, athletes, and celebrities that sell out arenas. He needs to continue to knock the socks off of his opponents and bark in the face of boxing. This isn’t to say Jake Paul can’t box. He’s a damn good fighter, but he’s a showman first. He needs to fight his peers like KSI, Andrew Tate, and his brother Logan Paul. These are the matchups that will sell tickets, provide a platform for his undercard fighters, and light fires under real professional boxers. It’s undeniable that both Jake and Logan are geniuses when it comes to entertainment. Despite several missteps in their careers, they always stay on top and demand attention. Paul needs to play to his strengths. He may be able to take on any cruiserweight in the WBC, but that doesn’t mean he has to. Jake Paul fighting a real boxer is akin to the defeat of Smaug in The Hobbit. Five fights isn’t a proper build-up. There’s not enough anticipation just yet. Paul’s storyline in boxing isn’t ready for the big crescendo. He needs to continue to fuel the boxing communities hate by beating down amateur fighters until the right superstar pro boxer is knocking on his door with an invitation to fight.

  • Jake Paul offered $100k to spar Olympic boxer Claressa Shields as feud continues – Dexerto

    Jake Paul offered $100k to spar Olympic boxer Claressa Shields as feud continues WikiMedia Commons/Instagram: Jake PaulFemale boxing star Claressa Shields has taken aim at Jake Paul as their online feud continues, calling the social media star “pathetic” and even offering him $100,00 for a sparring session. As Jake Paul has made waves in the boxing world, it hasn’t been without controversy. Many fighters and fans of the sport have mocked his bouts as “freakshows,” with many even bringing the results of the fights into question. The social media star has recently been locked in an online war of words with double Olympic gold medalist Claressa Shields, with the Olympian claiming that Jake would get his “ass whooped” if they crossed paths in the ring. Jake hit back at Shields comments after she lost an MMA bout to Abigail Montes, calling it “karma” for the 26-year-old. Well, their feud has taken another turn, with Shields throwing down the gauntlet again. Speaking to Sports Illustrated ahead of her return to the boxing ring, Shields called out the YouTube star over his in-ring abilities and for carefully “picking” his opponents. She also offered to put 100,00 on the line for a sparring session, but she doubts Jake would step up.“ He isn’t even going to take an offer to come and spar me,” Shields said. “I have put $100,000 on the table. And whoever wins in sparring can walk away with the money. And I bet you will all I will walk away with the dough, Jake Paul would not risk it.” The Olympian also questioned whether Jake’s camp would want him to get into the ring with her, believing they know it wouldn’t end well for their fighter. “You still suck at boxing. You still don’t have no accomplishments. You still wouldn’t get in the ring with me, let alone spar.” Boxing star @Claressashields rips @jakepaul to @AshNicoleMoss 🤭 pic.twitter.com/HsXas0JxZX — Sports Illustrated (@SInow) November 17, 2021 Her trash talk wasn’t finished there though, blasting Jake for “fake” stuff in and out of the boxing world. “When it comes to the real world of boxing, Jake Paul will never be world champion. He can just keep picking his opponents,” she said, claiming that he “sucks” in the ring. “You still wouldn’t dare get in the same ring with me, let alone spar. And, he’s just not even worth wasting my breath. The dude is pathetic,” Shields concluded, laying down the gauntlet again. It remains to be seen whether a high stakes face-off might happen, but it is the fight game, and crazier things have gone down.

  • Jake Paul names Floyd Mayweather as possible opponent for August boxing match – Dexerto

    Jake Paul names Floyd Mayweather as possible opponent for August boxing match YouTube: The Pivot Podcast, Jake Paul, TrillerYouTube boxer Jake Paul is slated to return to the ring this August to touch gloves with an as-yet-unnamed opponent — but he says undefeated champ Floyd Mayweather is in the running. Jake Paul’s 5-0 record is looking to take on another challenger as he prepares for a summertime boxing match this coming August. ‘The Problem Child’s most recent victory saw him defeat former UFC champ Tyron Woodley in their highly-anticipated rematch after UK boxer Tommy Fury pulled out at the last minute due to an injury. Thus far, Paul’s been keeping his lips sealed on who his upcoming rival could be… but it looks like he’s got some pretty big names on his list in the interim. Jake Paul names Floyd Mayweather, Anderson Silva, more as possible opponents During an April 14 interview with boxing commentator Ted Atlas and co-host Ken Rideout, Paul made mention of a major boxing champ that could be gracing the main event of his fight card this summer. “Yeah, we’re still locking down opponents,” Paul admitted. “There’s a lot of names. Floyd Mayweather, Oscar de la Hoya, Anderson Silva, Tommy Fury, Sonny William out of Australia. There’s a lot of people on the hit list.” “Some other names we’re talking to off the record, but we just want to see what makes the most sense.” (Topic begins at 24:10) If it comes about, this would mark the second time Mayweather faces off with Jake Paul, as the two notably scuffled ahead of his exhibition match against older brother Logan in 2021. Anderson Silva has also been named in connection to the Paul bros, with the Brazilian MMA star claiming he was open to a possible bout with either influencer late last year. For now, Paul says he wants someone who “matches my star power” when it comes to carrying promotion for events. With names like Mike Tyson getting thrown around, too, there’s no telling who Jake has lined up for this bout — but fans can bet it’ll be massive.

  • Jake Paul names his price to fight Tommy Fury in the UK – Dexerto

    Jake Paul names his price to fight Tommy Fury in the UK YouTube: In Depth/Instagram: Tommy FuryJake Paul has named his price to fight Tommy Fury in the UK amid concerns that the fight might not be able to happen in the United States due to Tommy’s issues with entering the US. Over the last few weeks, Jake Paul and Tommy Fury have reignited their long-standing rivalry, and even agreed to finally settle the score inside the boxing ring after their last fight was called off due to injury. The pair had been set to headline the August 6th MVP card at Madison Square Garden, but things have hit a hitch. Ahead of a scheduled press conference, Tommy was apparently denied entry to the United States by border officials in the UK. Jake has claimed he’s “moving on” and finding a new opponent to fight in place of Tommy, but with fans urging him to make the fight happen in the UK instead, the YouTuber-turned-boxer has laid out his conditions. As noted, with Tommy unable to travel to New York, there have been plenty of calls for the fight to be swapped to the UK – which proses logistical problems, seeing as a new venue would have been secured with barely a month’s notice. On top of that, Jake would want a bit more in the way of a payout from the fight to make the trip across the Atlantic. “I think the Fury family is trying to manipulate something here to make me fight in the UK,” Jake said on a Twitter video. “Ok, you want me to fight in the UK? Show me $15 million. Ok, because here in America, we do more pay-per-view buys, more ticket sales, and we do more sponsorships.” Update: All Tommy Fury has to do is go to the embassy to make this fight happen. pic.twitter.com/J3dDDsNuMw — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) June 29, 2022 Jake’s demands have been called “delusional” by his other longtime rival KSI, after he offered to step in and help rescue the card that now appears to be on the rocks. It remains to be seen as to whether or not the fight will go ahead – either in the US or the UK – but the clock is ticking, and ticking quickly.

  • Jake Paul named Breakout Boxer of the Year by Sports Illustrated – Dexerto

    Jake Paul named Breakout Boxer of the Year by Sports Illustrated Following in his older brother’s footsteps, Jake Paul’s boxing career has taken off over the past few years. After a spectacular year in the ring, Sports Illustrated has awarded Paul the prestigious title of 2021 Breakout Boxer of the Year. Whether it be YouTube or boxing, Jake Paul’s career has been shrouded in controversy. From causing neighborhood disturbances in the Team 10 House to challenging everyone on Twitter to a boxing match, Paul certainly knows how to cause a stir on the internet. Regardless, one of Paul’s greatest strengths is being able to captivate an audience no matter what he’s doing. “Any publicity is good publicity” applies to both of the Paul brothers, and they continue to thrive even after facing severe backlash from the internet. The most recent drama surrounding Paul is his ongoing feud with Dana White. While many people theorize that Jake Paul’s boxing matches are rigged, Sports Illustrated has deemed Paul a great success. Jake Paul named Breakout Boxer 2021 Sports Illustrated writes that, after only five fights into his professional career, Jake Paul has “elevated” the sport of boxing. The piece naming Paul Breakout Boxer of the Year recounted his fights against Ben Askren and Tyron Woodley… all three ending via knockout. SI also references the negative comments Paul has received from professional boxing legends. However, SI isn’t awarding Paul because of who he’s knocked out, but because of how polarizing he is. In 2021, Jake Paul has managed to sell out arenas and generate astronomical pay-per-view sales. While he isn’t boxing in Vegas arenas or putting up numbers that championships are, he’s doing more than most newby boxers could hope to accomplish. The boxing community doesn’t love Paul, and SI claims he won’t win over many people, either. But his already massive following is growing, and opponents are lining up to get a piece of fame Jake Paul can offer. Paul’s trainer B.J. Flores stated, “Everyone around him gets lifted up.” Even those fighting on the undercard during a Paul event see a boost in their Q-rating, which proves Flores’ point. Jake’s response to wining BBotY Jake Paul later responded to receiving the title via a screenshot of text on Twitter with the caption “Some reflection after winning “Breakout Boxer of The Year”. In the tweet, Paul expresses how overwhelmed and grateful he is to be given the title. He recounts how, in less than two years, he went from YouTuber to professional boxer. During this time, he’s set lofty goals for himself that push both himself and boxing as a whole to innovate and improve. His full statement can be found below. Some reflection after winning “Breakout Boxer of The Year” Thanks @SInow pic.twitter.com/TxFgPhB8aP — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) January 5, 2022 In an interview with SI, Paul stated, “I feel like I just finished my rookie season.” It’s safe to say Jake Paul won’t be leaving the boxing scene anytime soon. And with the amount of publicity and money Paul saw in 2021, it wouldn’t make sense for him to quit. Love him or hate him, Paul is Sports Illustrated’s 2021 Breakout Boxer of the Year.

  • Jake Paul & MrBeast challenge Elon Musk to donate billions of dollars to end world hunger – Dexerto

    Jake Paul & MrBeast challenge Elon Musk to donate billions of dollars to end world hunger YouTube: MrBeast, PewDiePie, Jake PaulYouTube stars Jake Paul and MrBeast are calling out Tesla CEO Elon Musk to donate billions of dollars to help end world hunger… but MrBeast might have a different plan in mind if things fall through. Popular influencer and philanthropist Jimmy ‘MrBeast’ Donaldson has kicked off a huge effort across social media to clean the world’s oceans. Enlisting the help of numerous influencers, his ‘TeamSeas’ project has already raised over $10 million at the time of writing. However, MrBeast isn’t the only personality calling for change in the world; it seems that YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul is also looking to put down some cash for charity, but he’s calling out a major celebrity in the process. On November 1, 2021, Paul tagged tech mogul Elon Musk in a pointed tweet, calling for him to donate a whopping $6 billion to the UN in the name of ending world hunger. Jake Paul calls out Elon Musk & puts down $10 million for charity That’s not all; Paul even claimed he’d put down $10 million if his post received 690,000 likes, so it looks like he’s putting down the money whether or not Musk donates. While Musk has yet to respond to Paul’s challenge, another influencer has put his name in the ring — MrBeast. In a reply to Paul’s tweet, he wrote: “If he doesn’t, give that $10 million to TeamSeas!” Thus far, a slew of responses have flooded in under the post, most of which are waiting with bated breath for Musk to reply. This wouldn’t be the first time Paul has put his money where his mouth is; in June, the YouTuber donated $5,000 to help fund Sarah ‘Too Sweet’ Alpar’s journey to fight against Erin Blanchfield amid a pay controversy surrounding UFC president Dana White. For now, Jake’s Tweet is still gaining traction, leaving fans on the edges of their seats to see how Musk decides to reply.

  • Jake Paul teases “most expensive fight trunks” in history for Tyron Woodley fight – Dexerto

    Jake Paul teases “most expensive fight trunks” in history for Tyron Woodley fight Instagram: jakepaulJake Paul has revealed that he’s planning on wearing the “most expensive fighting trunks in the history of boxing” for his upcoming rematch with Tyron Woodley on December 18. Although YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul was originally set to step into the ring with Tommy Fury, the lineup was abruptly changed in early December when Fury had to pull out of the fight due to an injury. He was replaced by Paul’s former opponent Tyron Woodley to set up what has become their long-anticipated rematch after the YouTuber scored a split decision victory in their August fight. Paul even upped the stakes this time by offering Woodley an extra $500,000 if he manages to knock him out. And it seems he’s pulling out all the stops for the day of the fight itself on December 18, revealing in a December 15 interview that he has an exciting outfit planned for the event. “I got a couple more surprises for you guys on fight night,” he explained. “Maybe my fight trunks are gonna be never before seen, the most expensive fight trunks in the history of boxing, so I’m excited to prevail those.” Read More: Best YouTubers of 2021: Top 5 Ranked – However, the youngest Paul brother is keeping tight-lipped about what exactly makes these shorts so expensive, so fans will have to wait until the fight itself to find out what Jake has planned.

Woodley even suggested that he deserves a $1 million bonus for the fight, saying that he “saved the f**king card” because “all these people would have wasted their time, their training camp, their coaches…” With such a last-minute change to the lineup, the outcome of the rematch is impossible to predict, leaving viewers eager to tune in for the big event on December 18.

    Jake Paul moves fight date to new venue alongside Amanda Serrano Twitter: jakepaulJake Paul has switched up the date for his upcoming bout, alongside scoring one of the biggest venues in boxing — and he’ll be joined by none other than Amanda Serrano. YouTube boxer Jake Paul is gearing up to take on his next opponent this August… but it looks like the event has seen some pretty big changes just over two months out. While initially slated for August 13, Paul has since bumped up the date to August 6, making for a 7-day difference. That’s not all; we’ve finally got an official venue for the bout, which is set to take place in New York’s Madison Square Garden — the very battleground where Amanda Serrano faced off against Katie Taylor in April. Serrano herself is also on the card for Jake’s upcoming boxing match, although opponents for both fighters have yet to be revealed. ‘The Problem Child’ is still being dodgy regarding his next rival, saying in a tweet: “We going back to back.

It was hypothesized that Paul would be possibly facing off against British boxer Tommy Fury; the two were initially slated to fight late last year, but a sudden injury took Fury off the card in favor of a rematch with former UFC champ Tyron Woodley. Right now, Paul has his pick of the litter when it comes to potential opponents. He’s been calling out just about everyone under the sun, with major names like kickboxer Andrew Tate and even Brazilian MMA legend Anderson Silva wanting a slice of the YouTube star. For now, things are still unclear… but one thing is certain — the hype for this match is very, very real.

With heavyweight champ Tyson Fury in his brother’s corner, and Jake’s older brother Logan in his, the fight has certainly been drawing a lot of attention, with plenty of people weighing in on who they think could come out on top.

    Jake Paul’s mom throws shade at Tana Mongeau after meeting her for the first time Jake Paul – Instagram, YouTube / Tana Mongeau – InstagramControversial YouTubers Jake Paul and Tana Mongeau have apparently begun a new relationship, following a slew of dating rumors between the two internet stars – but Paul’s mother might not be a fan of their blossoming romance. Paul uploaded a vlog on May 16, where his mother, Pamela Stepnick, met Tana for the very first time on the set of her upcoming MTV reality show, ‘Tana Turns 21.’ Stepnick didn’t seem to be too impressed with Mongeau before the two had even gotten acquainted, claiming that the only thing she knew about Tana was her disastrous ‘TanaCon’ event while they drove to her residence in Paul’s car. 600https://www.instagram.com/p/BxQchj5AdAQ/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_linkStepnick went on to question Paul about Mongeau, noting that she was young (20 years old) and blonde, with “big hooters.” The two later met on the set of Tana’s MTV show, where they appeared to have chemistry; however, Stepnick’s final assessment seemed to throw shade at Mongeau’s success, comparing the YouTuber to Logan Paul’s ex-girlfriend, ‘Agents of Shield’ actress Chloe Bennet. “First of all, we came to her house and she’s doing this MTV reality series,” Stepnick began. “It’s no ‘Agents of Shield’ or anything, but it was really cool.” Despite the apparent shade, Paul’s mother went on to say that Tana had a “great sense of humor,” calling her “really funny” and “very sweet.” 600https://www.instagram.com/p/BxVsN0zBwiL/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_linkWhile Jake Paul himself isn’t sure what his relationship status is with Mongeau just yet, the two have gotten closer and closer, after rumors circulated social media that the two YouTubers were involved in a secret romance – not helped by Mongeau’s Snapchat taken in Paul’s bed shortly thereafter. Not everyone was pleased with their involvement, including Mongeau’s ex-boyfriend, Justin Bieber lookalike Brad Sousa, who even challenged Jake Paul to a fight multiple times following his breakup with Tana. Sousa himself uploaded a message to Jake Paul directly on May 16, asking the YouTuber to “pull up” in response to Paul’s constant online trolling. Sousa is expected to appear on Daniel ‘KEEMSTAR’ Keem’s Drama Alert show on May 17, where he will tell his side of the story in regards to his breakup with Mongeau.

Jake Paul has been actively trying to secure a fight against Conor McGregor for some time now, constantly calling out the former UFC champion at every turn. While ‘The Problem Child’ has said he would fight McGregor in either boxing or MMA, there has been little to suggest that the two will be squaring off anytime soon.

View this post on Instagram Jake Paul criticizes McGregor’s UFC training After McGregor posted a video training, the footage was reuploaded on Instagram by popular influencer account The Bread Batch. Jake Paul commented on the training video, taking issue with The Notorious One’s hand movements. “He’s dropping his right hand every time he slips right,” Jake criticized. “Rookie.” This isn’t the first time that Jake has used training footage to take shots at McGregor. Back in March, Paul uploaded a video showing off his own MMA training while accusing Conor of “drinking Jack Daniels in Dubai” and “putting up sloppy boxing videos.” https://twitter.com/TheBreadBatch/status/1514006990573522948 So far, McGregor hasn’t responded to Paul’s comment… but that doesn’t mean there aren’t some discussions behind the scenes to get the two into a fight against each other. In February, the Irishman hinted that he would be willing to step into the ring against Jake Paul by teasing “never say never” to the possibility. We’ll just have to see what happens in the future, but with Jake promising a boxing return this summer and McGregor trying to reclaim a belt in UFC, a fight between the two could still be a ways off.

  • Jake Paul mocks Shane Dawson for being ‘canceled’ – Dexerto

    Jake Paul mocks Shane Dawson for being ‘canceled’ Twitter: shanedawsonJake Paul has mocked ‘canceled’ YouTuber Shane Dawson, who in recent weeks has been accused of racism and inappropriate sexual conduct in past videos. Shane and Jake already have some history together, with Dawson creating a documentary on Paul called “The Mind of Jake Paul”, which was released in September 2018 and widely cast the younger Paul brother to be a sociopath. So, needless to say, there has probably been some bad blood in the past between the two, who are some of YouTube’s biggest content creators. Throughout June and July 2020, Shane Dawson came under fire for a number of reasons: Jaden Smith called him out for “sexualizing” his younger sister, and immediately after a video in which he apologized for racist content in old videos, he lost over 400,000 subscribers. Jake isn’t exactly a stranger to being canceled himself, even as recently as May when he faced a lot of scrutiny for his role in looting and rioting that took place in Scottsdale, Arizona. While several people condemned Shane Dawson’s actions and past comments, Jake didn’t – but took an ample opportunity to mock him in his July 5 vlog. While showing new Team 10 members and Instagram/TikTok stars Elle Danjean[jwplayer ftb8P7Xy] and Kaylyn Slevin to their new room, they mention needing a place to put their make-up – and Jake found the perfect opportunity. “Do you guys have the Conspiracy collection?” he asks them, referencing Dawson’s collection with Jeffree Star. After they asked for clarification over what that was, he said “Don’t worry, he got canceled” and bursts out laughing. Timestamp 4:07 He went on, referencing the old sociopath allegations, saying: “Who’s the sociopath? Not this guy,” possibly implying that perhaps Dawson himself is a sociopath. The vlog quickly moved on from Dawson, who wasn’t named explicitly but was clearly referenced. Fans were quick to notice the sly comments, and noted that there is still no love lost between two of YouTube’s biggest stars. It’s unclear yet whether Shane Dawson comes back from this. He hasn’t been active on social media following his apology video, and has lost over 1.2m subscribers since the initial apology video came out.

  • Jake Paul mocks KSI for “ducking” fight after Tommy Fury loss – Dexerto

    Jake Paul mocks KSI for “ducking” fight after Tommy Fury loss YouTube: BS w/ Jake PaulJake Paul has mocked KSI for “ducking” their fight after he recently lost to Tommy Fury by unanimous decision. After a ton of anticipation, KSI and Tommy Fury stepped in the ring on October 14, settling their score with six grueling rounds. While KSI aimed to do what his rival Jake Paul couldn’t do and beat Tommy Fury, it was ultimately the Love Island star who walked out on top. Similar to his fight with Jake Paul earlier this year, the decision came down to the judges, who scored the bout in Fury’s favor with a majority decision, which was soon corrected to a unanimous decision after an incorrect count. While fans have set their sights on the mega-fight between KSI and Jake Paul, it appears a bout between them is now even further away as Jake is mocking KSI for “ducking” their match. Jake Paul says KSI is “ducking” after Tommy Fury fight In a recent Sidemen Sunday, KSI made it clear he’d be taking a bit of time to relax after his fight with Fury, explaining he needs some time to enjoy his success after years of hard work. While fans anticipated a fight with Jake on the horizon, there’s no telling when we’ll finally see KSI touch gloves with Jake. Nevertheless, ‘The Problem Child’ is now mocking KSI for ducking a fight. In an October 22 tweet, he wrote: “DUCK DUCK GOOSE,” before adding a duck emoji. Not only that: Jake also put out a compilation of videos from KSI claiming he can’t wait to fight, before cutting to a recent clip of him explaining he’s taking a break. As it stands, it’s unclear when KSI and Jake Paul will finally fight. But for the time being KSI has sent an official appeal to the PBA, hoping to overturn the “outrageous” decision that went in Fury’s favor.

  • Jake Paul mocks Nate Diaz street brawl with “cringe” safety tips video – Dexerto

    Jake Paul mocks Nate Diaz street brawl with “cringe” safety tips video After a viral video featured MMA fighter Nate Diaz choking out a Logan Paul lookalike, Jake Paul took to Twitter to mock his opponent in a self-defense-type video. On April 21, following the events of the Misfits x DAZN Series 006 boxing event, a clip surfaced of MMA star Nate Diaz choking out Rodney Peterson in the streets of New Orleans. For those unaware, Peterson is a TikTok star known for looking like the eldest Paul brother, Logan. Of course, seeing as Diaz is slated to fight Logan’s younger Jake Paul later this year, it was expected for Jake to respond to the altercation. And he did with an instructional video on how to defend yourself if you were to be attacked by Diaz in the streets. Jake Paul teaches how to defend against Nate Diaz attack “Nate Diaz choking Logan Paul RESPONSE. Spread for safety!!” Jake captioned a video on Twitter addressing the Nate Diaz street fight. In which he donned jean shorts, pulled up past his belly button, and had a snorkel tucked inside his sock. “Welcome back to Jake’s self-defense .com,” he started. “Today, we’re gonna be teaching you what to do if you see a homeless Stockton man trying to come at you in the middle of the streets.” The “homeless” man he was referring to was none other than Nate Diaz. He went on to warn anyone who “looks like a Paul brother” in reference to Rodney Peterson. Then he moved on to a live demonstration where he pretended to be Diaz, and his brother, Logan Paul, played the role of Peterson. Jake satirically explained that you can use a snorkel to escape the choke hold and to supply yourself with more air if needed. In response to the video, a user commented on how “cringe” the video was, to which Jake replied, “It’s intentionally cringe, sweetheart !! Perhaps if you don’t get the joke, you are the joke !!” Cringe or not, many fans seemed to love Jake’s response to the situation, using Nate Diaz’s scuffle as a weapon in the mental game leading up to their fight later this year.

  • Jake Paul mocks Conor McGregor’s sparring partner for UFC 257 bout – Dexerto

    Jake Paul mocks Conor McGregor’s sparring partner for UFC 257 bout Jake Paul / Conor McGregorJake Paul is at it again, and this time he’s mocked Conor McGregor’s sparring partner ahead of his UFC 257 bout, a professional boxer named Dylan Moran with an impressive 15 – 1 record. Jake Paul is still doing his best to try and get Conor McGregor’s attention, and it hasn’t worked so far. However, he may have gotten one step closer after taking a swipe at his sparring partner for UFC 257. Conor has been sparring with a professional boxer named Dylan Moran, who has an impressive 15 – 1 record. But apparently, that doesn’t mean much to Jake, who is sitting on a 2 – 0 record himself. Here’s what he had to say. “Conor McGregor has a fight coming against Dustin Poirier, the guy who he already beat in one round,” he said. “Conor’s taking easy fights. But he’s been sparring in Ireland, and someone… asked him about his recent sparring sessions. This is what Conor [said].” Read more: Jake Paul slams UFC President Dana White – Jake shared some screenshots of Conor talking about his sparring partner. He described him as “very tough” and “one of the better boxers I’ve shared the ring with.” Conor also said the rounds were “super close.” He even copped a decent shot on the nose from the “phenomenal” and “exciting” boxer, which made him bleed. Jake swooped on this opportunity to dish out some criticism. “So Conor’s been boxing and going against some phenomenal, exciting Irish talent,” he said. “Then, this kid must be terrific, you know, because Conor’s a good boxer, right?” “We looked this kid up,” he added, with a smirk. “Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, the big, bad, exciting Irish talent. Dylan Moran, the kid that Conor McGregor is sparring against.” Read more: Jake Paul wants to fight Floyd Mayweather – He shared a video of the boxer struggling to guard up and get knocked down in a previous bout. Then, it cut to another instance in the same fight where the commentators were begging the boxer to grab his opponent. Instead, he got knocked out cold and lost the bout. https://twitter.com/defnoodles/status/1348761089438175232?s=20 “That’s the guy making Conor bleed and giving him close rounds,” said Jake, clearly mocking them both. “There’s a fifty million dollar offer on the table. I think at this point, Conor’s just scared to lose because he knows I’m a better boxer.” Conor McGregor has not yet responded, and probably won’t. UFC 257 is around the corner, and he’d be focused on preparing for Dustin Poirier. Plus, UFC President Dana White has made it clear he wants Conor to stick with MMA for the time being. So, it seems like Jake Paul’s antics have failed once again. But who knows what the future might hold. The fight could still happen at some point, and he’s certainly doing his best to make it happen.

  • Jake Paul mocks Deji with savage response to boxing rematch challenge – Dexerto

    Jake Paul mocks Deji with savage response to boxing rematch challenge YouTube: iFL TV/Instagram: jakepaulJake Paul savagely made fun of UK YouTuber Deji, after he suggested a rematch could be on the cards for the two influencers. Those who have followed YouTube boxing closely since the start will know that Jake Paul vs Deji took place on the undercard of the first Logan Paul vs KSI fight. It was the debut fight for both creators, and while Jake Paul has gone on to be huge in the world of boxing and command multi-million dollar paydays, Deji has struggled to find his footing in the ring, both literally and figuratively. On March 5, Deji is headlining the Showstar UK v USA boxing event with his bout against Alex Wassabi, but he’s already looking ahead to the future — and he thinks the younger Paul brother is in it. Timestamp 2:06 When discussing the first fight with iFL TV, they eventually asked whether Deji thinks a rematch with Jake is on the cards. He said that he’ll have to get a few more fights under his belt, and “smack up a few UFC fighters” before Jake would consider it, but that it’s “100%” on the cards. Jake, though, didn’t quite think the same. When the clip was posted to Instagram, he responded with two comments, saying that he “feels bad for people that are f**king idiots” and adding that “Deji is a walking pube.” It’s fair to say that Jake doesn’t think much of Deji’s suggestions that a rematch between the two could be on the cards and, even if Deji beats Wassabi, it’s hard to argue against Jake. With KSI and Logan Paul bringing out their Prime Hydration drink together, it’s not likely we see Jake and Deji doing the same any time soon.

  • Jake Paul mocks Connor McGregor’s claims he’d beat Islam Makhachev – Dexerto

    Jake Paul mocks Connor McGregor’s claims he’d beat Islam Makhachev YouTube: In DepthYouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul has fired shots at Conor McGregor after the UFC star claimed he could counter Islam Makhachev’s fighting style. Being one of the pioneers of influencer boxing, YouTube star Jake Paul has made a name for himself in the world of combat sports in the last few years. So far, the younger Paul brother has had five bouts under his belt, and right now he’s gearing up for his sixth against MMA legend Anderson ‘The Spider’ Silva. Despite being less than a week out from his scrap with Silva, he’s still going for people’s necks on Twitter, this time firing shots at Conor McGregor. Following on from claims that he’d be an easier fight than his upcoming Anderson Silva bout, once again, Jake he took aim at McGregor. In now-deleted tweets, the Irishman hit out at the newly-crowned UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev, who took the title from Oliveira by submission in the second round at UFC 280. Conor claimed that he now has the tools to be able to counter the fighting style used by his rival Khabib Nurmagomedov, which Makhachev adopted. “Nice fight. nice performance. I have built all the tools to beat this style now Vs b4,” he said on Twitter. However, Jake strongly thinks otherwise. Hitting back at the UFC star, he said: “Only tools he has built are Twitter fingers. Islam would Khabib him in one round. Hence why he deleted his tweets.” McGregor’s last fight left him on the sidelines after suffering from a broken leg injury against Dustin Poirier. But, now he’s looking to get back in the octagon. With Jake also teasing an MMA debut, it definitely wouldn’t be impossible to see the two face off in the future. Though has expressed that he thinks McGregor will ultimately avoid a bout.

  • Jake Paul mocks Conor McGregor & Khabib ahead of Ben Askren fight – Dexerto

    Jake Paul mocks Conor McGregor & Khabib ahead of Ben Askren fight Instagram/thenotoriousmma/Jakepaul/khabib_nurmagomedovYouTube star turned amateur boxer Jake Paul is once again calling out Conor McGregor and even reigning UFC Lightweight Champion Khabib Nurmagomedov in a new video ahead of his April 17 fight against Ben Askren. Paul has been relentless in his pursuit of securing a boxing match against the Irishman McGregor, frequently challenging him in videos, making fight offers and videos mocking the UFC veteran. On February 23, the YouTuber took things a step further by bringing McGregor’s rival, Khabib Nurmagomedov, into the mix, mocking the Russian and his mannerisms. In the short video, Paul impersonates McGregor, Khabib and Askren in a series of sketches to promote his April 17 bout. In the first part of the clip, Jake puts on his best Irish accent and pretends to be McGregor having a phone call with UFC President Dana White after his loss to Dustin Poirier. “Dana, I’m sorry I lost, mate. I bought this fooking Lamborghini though,” he joked. Next, he pretended to be Khabib while wearing his signature Papakha doing a press conference in the wake of McGregor’s loss at UFC 257.

I spar back,” he said in his best Russian accent. “Conor McGregor must respect gym. Conor McGregor no respect gym.” In perhaps his best skip, Paul put on an afro-style wig and a “Vote for Pedro” shirt combining both Ben Askren and Napoleon Dynamite. “I just got back from my hip surgery, now I’m going to fight Jake Paul for a bunch of money. I’m going to invest all of it into Siacoin,” the YouTuber mocked. I feel like this is average work at best. the guy has a full-time production staff and he can’t come up with anything better??? https://t.co/R5238po9Lr — Funky (@Benaskren) February 23, 2021 Askren, however, didn’t take too kindly to the video and didn’t even think it was worth all the effort. In a quote tweet, the 36-year-old called the video “average work at best.” “The guy has a full-time production staff and he can’t come up with anything better???” Askren asked to the tune of a whopping three question marks. Knowing Jake, this won’t be the last time he takes aim at Askren ahead of their fight. We’ll have to see if he can walk the walk after all this trash talk when the two step into the ring on April 17.

  • Jake Paul mocked as “terrible” Andre August boxing video surfaces – Dexerto

    Jake Paul mocked as “terrible” Andre August boxing video surfaces YouTube: Impaulsive/Twitter: MVPJake Paul has been criticized after training footage of his upcoming opponent, Andre August, surfaced online as people don’t believe it’ll exactly be a tough test for the YouTuber. When Jake Paul kicked off his boxing career, he immediately fought a number of former MMA stars like Ben Askren, Anderson Silva, and Tyron Woodley. Despite adding a few wins to his record, many critics stated that the ‘Problem Child’ really needed to fight a ‘real’ boxer. Answering those questions, he faced off against Tommy Fury, someone who had boxed all his life. However, the YouTuber-turned-boxer was defeated by his longtime rival. That set his world title ambitions back a bit, but he got back on the horse with a new over Nate Diaz. Jake will be returning to the ring in mid-December to face Andre August – a 35-year-old boxer who, despite taking a four-year hiatus from fighting, has amassed a 10-1-1 record. Andre August training footage roasted ahead of Jake Paul fight August has, mainly, fought on regional shows in Texas and footage of those fights is sparse. However, some of his training footage has now surfaced online and fans are less than impressed. In fact, after seeing the 35-year-old in action, many have mocked Jake for picking him to be his next opponent. “Jake is going to win, he looks terrible for his record,” said one. “Jake and his team knew what they doing, but Jake will win sadly,” another added. “Damn, how deep did Jake search to find this clown?” quipped another. “Crazy you guys found someone as bad as Jake,” commented another viewer. Jake has hyped the fight up by noting that August has an experience advantage and has more wins by way of knockout, but plenty of fans aren’t buying that. The ‘Problem Child’ is the heavy betting favorite going into the fight, but it’ll be interesting to see what happens come fight night and if Jake can get back to winning ways.

  • Jake Paul mocks Canelo as boxing star won’t rule out future fight – Dexerto

    Jake Paul mocks Canelo as boxing star won’t rule out future fight Instagram: Jake Paul/CaneloBoxing icon Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez once again refused to rule out a fight with Jake Paul, giving the YouTube star ammunition for a roast on social media. While many boxing fans are completely against the growing trend of influencer fights, Jake Paul seems determined to break through and take on actual ranked fighters. The YouTube star holds a 4-0 record after most recently defeating Tyron Woodley in a split decision, and hasn’t been shy about wanting to fight Conor McGregor as well as Canelo and Gervonta Davis. In the case of Canelo, the Mexican star initially laughed off the idea of the Paul brothers getting into the ring with ‘real’ fighters but has seemingly softened his stance since, offering Jake advice on what he’d need to do to set up a bout between the pair. On September 30, ahead of his fight with Caleb Plant, Canelo was once again quizzed about the possibility of a bout with Jake and, yet again, didn’t completely shut it down. And, just like last time, stated that Jake has to improve. “We don’t know, you can never say never. We’ll see in the future,” he told FightHype, with the caveat that Jake Paul has to work on a few things in the meantime. “Everybody knows his personality so it’s good.” Naturally, the video of him answering the question made its way to Jake and he took the opportunity to poke fun at the Super Middleweight champ’s demeanor and nail-biting as he spoke. He, of course, went over the top, almost shoving his whole hand in his mouth to poke fun at Canelo potentially being nervous. “Canelo.. will you ever fight Jake Paul?” pic.twitter.com/7HkvXz0JaU — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) October 1, 2021 In terms of the pair actually squaring off, it’s not going to happen anytime soon. Canelo is still on top of the boxing world and Jake isn’t anywhere close yet. Plus, the YouTuber is likely to a rematch with Tyron Woodley before he makes any other moves in the boxing space.

  • Jake Paul MMA training claims dismissed by UFC legend Daniel Cormier – Dexerto

    Jake Paul MMA training claims dismissed by UFC legend Daniel Cormier YouTube: Showtime SportsJake Paul has been rumored to be making a switch from boxing to MMA and joining the famed AKA gym. However, he won’t get any help from Daniel Cormier. Since he first got involved with influencer boxing all the way back in 2018, Jake Paul has made some serious waves in the fight game. The YouTube star has turned a few heads with knockout wins over Nate Robinson, Ben Askren, and Tyron Woodley. After beating Woodley in late 2021, all eyes are on who he might fight next – with former Middleweight boxing champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. reportedly lined up. There are also rumors that, after long last, Jake might step into the Octagon and fight in the world of MMA – likely for Bellator or PFL, rather than the UFC. Though, he won’t be getting help from some of the top dogs. After the MMA switch rumors started to swirl, the social media star claimed that he’d be working with Khabib Nurmagomedov and the American Kickboxing Academy team – which also includes former UFC champion Daniel Cormier, with whom he’s had some beef. Cormier, now a commentator for the UFC, was asked about Jake possibly joining the gym and getting involved with MMA. Though, he has his doubts. “No, I have no interest in that. It seems like a lot of ploys, right? It is always ploys,” he told The Schmo. “I don’t know how true much of it is, but it seems like a ploy to me, so I’m not going to play that game.” Timestamp of 7:47 The gym’s head trainer, Javier Mendez, also poured cold water on the YouTuber joining the team immediately – noting that membership requires a vote, no matter who you are or what you’ve done. “He hasn’t been given consent because he hasn’t asked, it’s not that he won’t, I just know he hasn’t asked,” he also told The Schmo. “If he does get denied, he won’t know who denied him cause we don’t say that.” It remains to be seen if the YouTuber’s switch will actually happen or, if like Cormier believes, it’s all just a ploy to build some hype.

  • Jake Paul MMA debut date finally confirmed after nearly a year – Dexerto

    Jake Paul MMA debut date finally confirmed after nearly a year YouTube: BS w/ Jake PaulPFL boss Donn Davis has revealed when Jake Paul will finally make his MMA debut with the company, however, there is still a bit of a wait to go. Since getting involved with boxing, Jake Paul has found himself also involved with the world of Mixed Martial Arts. He’s feuded with UFC boss Dana White over pay-per-views, fought a number of former UFC stars on his way to boxing stardom, and constantly taunted Conor McGregor. It seemed only natural that the ‘Problem Child’ would eventually swap the boxing ring for the cage before long. So, it shouldn’t have shocked anyone when he signed a multi-year deal with the PFL to headline their SuperFights division. Upon signing that deal, Jake attempted to negotiate a two-fight deal with Nate Diaz – one in boxing and a return fight in the PFL. That boxing clash happened, but Diaz was averse to helping the PFL. PFL boss reveals when Jake Paul will finally debut in MMA Since then, Jake has announced his return to the boxing ring – revealing he’ll fight Andre August in mid-December – and stated he wants to be more active in 2024. Though, it seems he’ll finally step into the cage then too. “Jake was always Q4 because for him to get good in his standards for an MMA fight, that’s legitimate worthy, he says he needs that year,” PFL boss Donn Davis revealed in the wake of his company purchasing Bellator during his November 20 appearance on The MMA Hour with Ariel Helwani. “He started training a month ago in the SmartCage down in his home. I think that is October-December 2024.” Timestamp of 18:35 As noted, the ‘Problem Child’ has attempted to set up a second fight with Nate Diaz for his debut inside the PFL’s cage. However, the Stockton native has been against that, claiming the UFC is the only MMA organization he would fight for. Davis has repeatedly noted that the PFL has offered Nate over $12 million for a fight with Jake and would be eager to make it happen. Though, who knows if it ever will at this point.

  • Jake Paul might be banned from Logan Paul vs Floyd Mayweather fight – Dexerto

    Jake Paul might be banned from Logan Paul vs Floyd Mayweather fight Instagram: Logan Paul, Triller / YouTube: Jake PaulThe Logan Paul vs Floyd Mayweather press conference took an unexpectedly violent turn after Jake Paul stole the spotlight — and his scuffle with his older brother’s opponent may have gotten him banned from the actual event on June 6. Jake Paul hasn’t dubbed himself the “Problem Child” without reason; the YouTuber-turned-pro boxer has made himself famous for his insane backyard stunts, party-hard lifestyle and, most recently, calling out just about every pro fighter imaginable. Thus far, Jake boasts a 3-0 professional boxing record, having taken out fellow influencer AnEsonGib, former NBA pro Nate Robinson and retired MMA fighter Ben Askren. High on his previous victories and aiming to become a legitimate fighter instead of a mere YouTuber, Jake Paul apparently couldn’t resist challenging Mayweather after his faceoff with Logan. View this post on Instagram Unfortunately, their confrontation turned physical, resulting in a massive brawl that left Jake with a bloody mouth and Mayweather with a serious ire against the youngest Paul brother for “disrespecting” him. Read More: Logan Paul vs Mayweather gets personal as domestic abuse allegations fly at press conference – The whole ordeal started when Jake got up in Mayweather’s face and stole his hat, leading the 50-0 champ on a wild goose chase throughout a throng of people before the two were finally separated. “”Got your hat!”” Floyd Mayweather & Jake Paul got into a scuffle at the #MayweatherPaul press conference 🤯pic.twitter.com/uFEueh6FWk — Dexerto (@Dexerto) May 6, 2021 Older brother Logan appeared to be decidedly exasperated by the incident, as shown in a video clip taken just after the scuffle went down — but it looks like Jake’s little stunt could have gotten him barred from the boxing match, altogether. In an Instagram story, Logan Paul can be seen telling his little bro that he’s been officially banned from the event and the Hard Rock Stadium, with text on the lower part of the screen reading, “Jake Paul got himself banned.” Unsurprisingly, Jake didn’t seem to be too bothered by this repercussion, replying, “Swipe up, I’ll buy the fight, I don’t care.” While no official statement has been issued confirming this potential ban, it wouldn’t come as a huge surprise, considering the rise Jake managed to get out of an opponent he isn’t even slated to fight. For now, it looks like Mayweather will have to wait to get revenge — and he’ll start by taking on Logan.

  • Jake Paul might “KO Andrew Tate’s ass” despite disagreeing with bans – Dexerto

    Jake Paul might “KO Andrew Tate’s ass” despite disagreeing with bans Vimeo: FreeTopG / YouTube: IMPAULSIVEYouTube star Jake Paul has hinted that he might knock out Andrew Tate in the boxing ring after the controversial internet mogul published his “final message” following multiple social media bans. Jake Paul and Andrew Tate have been bandying about the idea of a potential boxing match for the past few weeks. Tate originally challenged Jake after ‘The Problem Child’ called out Conor McGregor in 2021. However, Tate’s relevance in 2022 has prompted Paul to take notice of the former kickboxer, and he’s decidedly not a fan of his views. During an August episode of Logan Paul’s IMPAULSIVE podcast, Jake gave his older bro his blessing to take on the self-proclaimed ‘Top G’, but assured him that “if my brother doesn’t f**k you up, I will. It has to go down.” Over the past week, Tate has been hit with bans from multiple social websites, including the likes of YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram — so on August 23, he returned to Vimeo to publish his “final message.” In the video, he decried the backlash against him and claimed that all his remaining social platforms would be dedicated to charity, while urging his fanbase to sign up to his website and “explain the truth in a respectful manner” to his critics. Paul shared the link to Tate’s video on Twitter, where he made it clear that although he still wants to take out the former kickboxing champ in the ring, he isn’t a fan of his social media bans. “I don’t roll with Andrew Tate. May KO his ass out in the ring one day soon,” he wrote. “But I roll with freedom of speech.” This isn’t the first time Jake has spoken out about Tate’s bans, either; on August 20, Paul published a tweet about Tate’s bans with a similar sentiment. “Both of these statements are true,” he wrote. “One: I don’t agree with a lot of Andrew Tate’s opinions. Two: I don’t agree with censorship. Who’s with me?” While it’s unclear when, or if, these two will ever face off in the boxing ring, Paul is currently gearing up for another match in October following the sudden cancellation of his bout with Hasim Rahman Jr. on August 6.

  • Jake Paul responds to Mike Tyson’s boxing bout idea on Jimmy Kimmel – Dexerto

    Jake Paul responds to Mike Tyson’s boxing bout idea on Jimmy Kimmel Mike Tyson / adsterphotos via Jake Paul InstagramJake Paul responded to Mike Tyson’s Jimmy Kimmel interview where the former boxing World Champ said he’d want to step into the ring against the YouTuber in 2022. Paul has been getting a ton of gas early in his boxing career despite the lack of professional boxers he’s squared off against. Still, as a 5-0 boxer his name is starting to get brought up more and more by people who want to give him the first blemish of his career. He’s already locked in for an August Pay-Per-View match at Madison Square Garden but has yet to reveal who will fill out his card with about two months left to go. Regardless, it seems as though Paul could have his next event lined up already after Tyson’s late-night show appearance might finally produce Iron Mike vs The Problem Child. Thank you to the great Mike Tyson for the respect and opportunity. This year we are making it happen. pic.twitter.com/dlGQUf2EP0 — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) June 18, 2022 After Tyson told Kimmel that he would oblige Paul’s request to step into the arena, Paul caught wind of the famed boxer’s response sometime later. “Thank you to the great Mike Tyson for the respect and opportunity. This year we are making it happen,” Paul said. Tyson seemed willing to set up a match with Paul, and he thinks there’s no better time than the present to get a show like that going. “He’s skilled enough, yes, I’m gonna give it to him. Because he’s winning… You gotta give him credit, he’s beating people he shouldn’t be beating. “He’s doing so much for boxing… Anything is possible, but it’s gotta happen this year.” Paul has earned Mike’s respect since the YouTuber first started his fighting journey in early 2020, and it’s been just enough to buy some 1-on-1 time with The Baddest Man on the Planet. There are no details on a possible Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson card so far but, if both are serious about putting an event together, we could find out more soon.

  • Jake Paul makes massive Nate Diaz prediction as he’s still making offers for MMA debut – Dexerto

    Jake Paul makes massive Nate Diaz prediction as he’s still making offers for MMA debut YouTube: Jake Paul/ID BoxingJake Paul has made a pretty massive prediction as to what would happen if he and Nate Diaz met inside an MMA cage, as the YouTuber-turned-boxer is still trying to make his PFL debut happen. Since stepping into the world of boxing, Jake Paul has crossed paths with his fair share of mixed martial artists. The ‘Problem Child’ counts wins over Tyron Woodley, Ben Askren, Nate Diaz, and Anderson Silva on his boxing record – and he’s still got a fight with Mike Perry to come. Jake has also penned a deal with the PFL – Professional Fighters League – to make his MMA debut in their SuperFights division. That debut has been put off due to his boxing commitments, but both sides are still eager to make it happen. Given he’s beaten Diaz in the boxing ring, Jake made his first big offer to the Stockton native upon signing that deal, claiming to have offered him $15 million for the fight. Now, the social media phenom has made another prediction for how the fight would go, if Diaz agrees to make it happen. “If I don’t get guillotined, then I win the fight. But even if he was on top of him I would just throw him off of me. Because he’s honestly the weakest puncher I’ve ever fought. Like, when he was hitting me I almost started laughing,” Jake told UFC champion Sean O’Malley on episode 49 of BS with Jake Paul. Timestamp of 36:10 While plenty of Jake’s MMA trash talk has been aimed at Nate, he has cast a wider net for the opponent for his debut as well. He told the New York Post: “We have been trying to make an MMA fight happen. We tried with Nate Diaz but to no avail. So it’s been difficult to find the right opponent for that. But we’re working behind the scenes and doing promotional stuff for them, and I’ll be attending some fights soon.” As noted, Jake does have a clash with Mike Perry coming up in July, and he is eyeing rescheduling that Mike Tyson fight for the end of the year. But, he’s clearly still got an eye on MMA too.

  • Jake Paul & Martinez Twins finally speak out on Team 10 drama – Dexerto

    Jake Paul & Martinez Twins finally speak out on Team 10 drama Instagram: Ivan MartinezAfter a long period of silence about the matter, former Team 10 members the Martinez Twins have spoken again about the nasty drama that went down between them and leader Jake Paul when they left the house, saying that they finally “forgive” him. While recent years have seen YouTuber and former Disney channel star Jake Paul shift his content to focus on him as an individual, he made a name for himself as leader of YouTube creator house Team 10 back in 2017 The controversial YouTube group received an equal amount of adoring fans and frustrated onlookers, with his neighbors even attempting to file a class-action lawsuit against Jake after he leaked their address, with hordes of fans coming to wait outside the house for a glimpse of their idols. What did Jake Paul do to the Martinez twins? Two notable members of Team Ten were twin brothers Ivan and Emilio Martinez, brothers from Spain who were invited by Jake Paul to come and live with him in LA. They quickly amassed a huge degree of popularity, even participating in the viral “It’s Everyday Bro” music video with their own verse. But things turned sour when they released a video detailing the reasons they had left behind Team 10, and Jake seemed to be the root of the issue. They spoke about how when they came to the US they didn’t speak very good English, so other members would talk about them badly behind their back or laugh at them “every single day.” Jake Paul’s borderline violent pranks apparently became too much, so they left the Team 10 life behind. At the time, Jake called the twins out for uploading a video about it instead of talking directly, calling them “immature” and saying they were just making videos about it to “get more views.” “Talk to me like a man in person,” he continued, “we can fix this.” Are Jake Paul and the Martinez twins friends again? After a few years of silence about the topic, on September 12 Ivan Martinez uploaded a series of images of him, his brother Emilio, and Jake Paul all together, that now has almost half a million likes. It is unclear as to when exactly these pictures were taken, but his caption speaks positively of the relationship between the three. https://www.instagram.com/p/CFDp9b3J4_8/ “You can’t go back and change the past,” he wrote, “but you can start where you are and change the ending. We forgive each other. Amigos.” On Twitter, Emilio wrote “got off the phone with Jake. It was very awkward at the beginning but right away we both started laughing and had fun.” He continued by saying that “this trio gotta move on” and that they’ve “grown up.” got off the phone with Jake, it was awkward at the beginning but right away we both started laughing and had fun like the first times we hang. We forgive each other, we this trio gotta move on, gotta to better things than thinking of our past, it was 3 years ago. We’ve grown up pic.twitter.com/yXmQI4hZQn — Emilio Martinez (@emartineeez) September 12, 2020 Jake reposted one of the pictures on his own story with the caption “los tres amigos” so clearly the sentiment is reciprocated. This proved to be surprising news for those who followed the crazy situation as it unfolded back in 2017. It is unclear whether any future collaborations are in the works, but it seems many would be curious to see a throwback to bizarre Team 10 days.

  • Jake Paul fires shots at Dana White with bizarre Halloween costume – Dexerto

    Jake Paul fires shots at Dana White with bizarre Halloween costume Amanda Westcott for SHOWTIME / Instagram: Dana WhiteJake Paul isn’t pulling any punches with his latest jab at UFC president Dana White, as the YouTube-turned-Boxer donned a risky White-inspired Halloween costume. For Jake Paul, adding fuel to the fire of ongoing rivalries with creators or fighters is just an everyday activity. Declaring war on boxer Tommy Fury, who will need to “kiss” his last name “goodbye” in their upcoming bout, Paul isn’t stopping there when it comes to mocking others in the fighting world. He’s been in a constant back-and-forth with UFC president Dana White, taking shots at him over fighter pay, amongst other things. After a period of silence, the pair reignited their beef on October 29 when Dana labeled Jake a “goofball” for comments made about former boxing champion Claressa Shields. Though, Jake has taken it to another level. Jake Paul mocks Dana White with risky costume Normally on Halloween, people will choose to dress up as terrifying creatures or iconic figures of cinematic horror. Some may even pull from pop culture, but for Jake Paul, his crosshair was set on UFC president Dana White. Paul’s feud with White has been ongoing, especially after White backed up fighter Claressa Shields, with the latter claiming Paul “has yet to face a real boxer in boxing.” Instead of trading blows back verbally with White, Paul decided to send a few returning hits back in the form of his White-inspired Halloween costume. Brandishing a prop bag of fake narcotics and white make-up, Paul completed the mock look replicating an infamous photo of White consorting with a Playboy Bunny. Dana White loves promoting my fights for free.. thank you @danawhite pic.twitter.com/OGKBhduiMK — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) October 30, 2021 Prior to this head-turning costume, Paul has been laying down the hurt on social media, adding that “Dana White loves promoting my fights for free” in a TikTok video responding to the Claressa Shields comments. Perhaps White will return the favor with a Jake Paul costume next year.

  • Jake Paul Makes it Clear You Won’t be Able to Watch Free Streams of the KSI vs Logan Fight – Dexerto

    Jake Paul Makes it Clear You Won’t be Able to Watch Free Streams of the KSI vs Logan Fight Jake Paul / YouTubeJake Paul has made it clear that people wanting to watch the KSI versus Logan Paul fight on August 25 will not be able to find a free stream. The stream for the highly anticipated boxing event, which will include Jake Paul taking on KSI’s younger brother, Deji, in the co-main event, was recently revealed to be pay-per-view only, much to the disappointment of many fans. At the end of his most recent video, “A FACE TO FACE DISCUSSION WITH WEDGIE.. (EXTREME CRINGE ALERT)”, Jake has addressed those concerns, saying: “Guys… it’s eight dollars, it’s a cup of coffee, okay? It’s gonna be super exciting, it’s so worth it, like, eight dollars. We wanted to make it supper affordable,” The younger Paul brother went on to say that all of the people promising to re-stream the event for free, illegally, will be shut down. According to Jake, there will be hundreds of Google and YouTube employees dedicated to making sure that this is the case, meaning the $8 mainstream will be the only option. “I know a lot of people were talking about how they’re gonna just like stream it, or try to watch it for free somewhere else. You’re not going to be able to do that, “There’s literally going to be hundreds of Google and YouTube employees on the day of the fight that are stripping down any livestream on any platform of people trying to stream it for free,” After the initial backlash, KSI also explained that the “cost of the event itself is on another level to last time” and that the decision to make it PPV was because “we want to make this as big an experience as possible for everyone watching”. Logan Paul versus KSI and Jake Paul versus Deji will take place on August 25 at the Manchester Arena, England. Even with the news that it will be pay-per-view, it is expected to be one of the biggest events in the history of YouTube. You can purchase the pay-per-view here.

  • Jake Paul makes bold prediction about his fight against Tyron Woodley – Dexerto

    Jake Paul makes bold prediction about his fight against Tyron Woodley Triller Fight ClubYouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul is taking on his biggest challenge yet in his upcoming fight against former UFC champion Tyron Woodley, and made quite the bold prediction about how the bout will go. Still fresh off his victory against Ben Askren, Jake will be taking on Woodley on August 28 in what the YouTuber believes will be his toughest match so far – and one that will either make or break his career. In an interview with Brendan Schaub, Jake Paul explained how Tyron Woodley meets the criteria to pose a significant threat to his undefeated record. “He came out of the UFC, five-time champ, and he has knockout power,” Jake said. “I’m going into this fight like ‘this is a make or break fight.’ This is the biggest test I’ve had and he’s legit.” That said, it’s Tyron’s reputation that Jake feels is key to solidifying himself as a true competitor in his own right and making himself more than just a Disney star. “I’m going to show people I’m a boxer and I can take a punch. I can dish a punch. People haven’t even seen my skills or my ability in what I can do,” he added. According to Jake, despite the fact that Tyron Woodley has been boxing for a much longer time than he has, he’s still predicting himself to win as early as round two. “I will take him out in two rounds,” Jake confidently said. “And people are going to come back and watch this interview and be like ‘goddamn, this f**king a**hole who dresses like a douche bag and wears jewelry and takes peoples’ hats has predicted every single fight.’” If Jake can in fact score a second round KO against Woodley, it would certainly be a black eye on the mixed martial artist’s career, but it could also open up a lot of new doors for Jake and new potential opponents. We’ll have to see what happens when the two step into the ring on August 28.

  • Jake Paul makes Conor McGregor fight offer to end UFC beef once and for all – Dexerto

    Jake Paul makes Conor McGregor fight offer to end UFC beef once and for all Jake Paul, Conor McgregorJake Paul has made a massive bid to UFC president Dana White, requesting one single fight against Conor McGregor. He offered to hand over his entire purse from the fight to smaller UFC fighters and never speak of the sport again if he loses. Jake Paul’s taunting of Conor McGregor is seemingly endless. The YouTuber-turned-fighter has been egging on the legendary UFC fighter for two years now and has made bold claims if they ever faced off, “I would KO Conor in boxing or MMA. Right hand of God,” he said. Now, he’s made head of UFC Dana White a massive offer he might not be able to refuse. Jake Paul’s final offer to fight Conor McGregor On March 12, Paul put all his cards on the table and put out a massive offer to fight McGregor. “Dana – Since you like me now, how about a 1 fight UFC deal to fight Conor?” Jake asked. His proposal is massive. “If I win, you agree to my UFC fighter pay and healthcare proposal,” he stated. The star has previously slammed the UFC’s handling of healthcare for its fighters. If he loses, however, he’s offering up a ton. “If I lose I donate my entire purse to all UFC fighters who make less than $50K a fight and never mention UFC again,” he said. Dana – Since you like me now, how about a 1 fight UFC deal to fight Conor. If I win, you agree to my UFC fighter pay and healthcare proposal. If I lose I donate my entire purse to all UFC fighters who make less than $50K a fight and never mention UFC again Deal? — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) March 12, 2022 Dana has been occupied getting Conor McGregor vs Nate Diaz 3 to become a reality. While a fight between Paul and McGregor is still unlikely, Conor did leave a shred of hope for a matchup down the line: “Never say never.”

  • Jake Paul makes big Premier League prediction about Liverpool, Man Utd & Everton – Dexerto

    Jake Paul makes big Premier League prediction about Liverpool, Man Utd & Everton Jake Paul Instagram / EPLThe English Premier League 2021-22 campaign is set to be one of the most competitive with a few top teams with reasonable claim to the title, and Jake Paul started off the season with a bold claim – which didn’t go too bad. The YouTube content creator has been growing his image in the sports scene with his amateur boxing bouts, and now he’s hit on an early win for the new EPL season. Liverpool, Manchester United, and Everton are some of the teams who have their eyes on ultimate glory this year, and Paul wasn’t too shy to back them up for the opening draw of the league. “I’m doubling down on my bets! [Everton, Manchester United, Liverpool] winning their opening games tomorrow. Take that to the bank,” he said at the time. THIS MEANS IM 3-0 IN FOOTBALL PREDICTIONS AND 3-0 AS A BOXER https://t.co/qVQNCCh13M — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) August 14, 2021 Well the first bunch of matches in the EPL came and went on August 14, with all three of the teams set to make their debut this season. Sure enough, a day later, Paul was able to claim his winnings as all three finished as winners in their first Premier League draw. Paul had joked that he didn’t have the best knowledge of EPL, so he was going into the bet a little blind. If he were a casual observer last season, he’d have a few different clues as to why those were pretty strong picks. In either case, the 24-year-old was taken by the moment of getting a clean EPL cash out, which reminded him of his boxing stint so far. “This means I’m 3-0 in football predictions and 3-0 as a boxer,” he said after the results came in. Since dipping his toes in boxing with a win over AnEsonGib on January 30, Paul’s been looking for his next challenge in the combat sport. His next bout will be against Tyron Woodley on August 29, where we’ll see if Paul can keep up the hot streak he’s on.

  • Jake Paul makes bizarre explicit promise for if he ever fights KSI – Dexerto

    Jake Paul makes bizarre explicit promise for if he ever fights KSI YouTube: Jake Paul/Boxing SocialJake Paul has made a pretty explicit promise and cut off a key part of his body if KSI finally steps up to fight him as he doesn’t he will do so. The rivalry between Jake Paul and KSI has gone back years at this point, kicking off on YouTube before spreading to a handful of other platforms and even to the boxing ring. When KSI defeated Logan Paul back in 2019, it appeared as if he and Jake were on a collision course to settle things once and for all. However, it’s almost 2023 and that hasn’t happened yet. The pair initially ‘agreed’ to fight in 2023 and said that they’d do it at Wembley Stadium, but things have cooled on that front. While KSI has stated he needs a few fights before he gets to Jake, the ‘Problem Child’ believes that the Brit is just using the rivalry for promotion for his other ventures and fights. Jake Paul makes massive promise if KSI fight ever happens Well, Jake believes that so much so, that he has vowed to do permanent harm to himself and cut off his “d*ck” if KSI gets into the ring with him. The YouTuber-turned-boxer made the vow when he appeared on Adin Ross’ December 14 stream, as the Twitch star asked him about a potential fight with KSI. “He’s scared. If KSI ever fights me, bro, I’ll cut my d*ck off, honestly because it’s never going to happen. He’s a smart kid and he knows that I will literally f*cking knock him out,” Jake answered. “He keeps on using me and all this for promotion, and it’s smart but I promise you he’s never going to fight me. I would love nothing more, but it’s just not realistic.” Timestamp of 13:00 Jake believes it’s “clear as day” that KSI is using the idea of a fight with Jake to promote his other fights, but KSI has stated before that he wants to make it happen before long. It’s a fight that plenty of fans still want to see happen, so who knows, maybe it will one day and Jake will have to live up to the painful vow.

  • Jake Paul has made $20m from boxing and claims he’s “just getting warmed up” – Dexerto

    Jake Paul has made $20m from boxing and claims he’s “just getting warmed up” Instagram: Jake PaulJake Paul might have only fought three times in his professional boxing career, but he’s already reportedly made $20 million in that run, and he plans to keep the momentum going. Love him or hate him, there’s no denying that Jake Paul is moving onwards and upwards in the world thanks to his lucrative boxing career. After knocking out AnEsonGib, Nate Robinson, and Ben Askren in his first three fights, Jake has been linked to a fourth fight against UFC Welterweight Champion Kamaru Usman. But after he made an absurd amount of money from his latest fight, a claim which UFC President Dana White denies, it’s left many — fans and haters alike — wondering exactly how much he’s pocketed so far in his boxing endeavors. Well, it seems like we finally have the answer. Kurt Badenhausen, the Sports Valuations Reporter at Sportico, reported Jake has made a cool $20 million from boxing, making him one of the top-paid athletes in the world. He missed the cut in making the top 100 by just $6m. Still, it’s an impressive feat for a boxer with only three professional fights on his record. Plus, Jake insists that he’s “just getting warmed up,” and plans on cracking into the list, potentially as soon as his next fight. Of course, people are still urging him to step into the ring against a “real” boxer, considering two of his previous opponents were inexperienced, and one of them wasn’t known for his boxing prowess despite being a former UFC star. However, there’s no denying that, financially, his boxing career has been a resounding success based on this information. And considering he’s only 24-years-old, there’s still plenty of time to double and triple those figures.

  • Jake Paul makes big change for Mike Tyson fight amid health concerns for the legendary boxer – Dexerto

    Jake Paul makes big change for Mike Tyson fight amid health concerns for the legendary boxer YouTube: Jake PaulJake Paul has cut with his usual traditions and won’t draft in a backup fighter in case Mike Tyson can’t go, as he’s totally confident in the 58-year-old’s health now. When it comes to organizing a big box office fight, plenty of hype goes into the two main fighters. However, when they might be doubts about one’s health, backup fighters can be put into place – just in case. It’s something Jake Paul has done over the last few years, especially following his canceled bout with Hasim Rahman Jr. The ‘Problem Child’ had ‘Platinum’ Mike Perry drafted in as a replacement for ‘Iron’ Mike Tyson when their scheduled July fight was postponed, and there has been talk of him tapping other fighters. However, with his rescheduled clash with Tyson a little over two months away, the YouTuber-turned-boxer hasn’t got a backup. And that’s despite the previous worries about ‘Iron’ Mike’s health. “I don’t have concerns,” Jake told TMZ Sports when asked about Mike’s health. “He’s doing great. He’s super healthy behind the scenes and feeling great. That’s what we’re focused on and there’s not a back-up currently.” Timestamp of 1:30 As noted, there have been rumors of Jake having fighters on standby in case. The biggest of which corners former world champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. A fight with the Mexican legend has been mooted after the WBA said they’d be “open” to a title fight between Cesar Chavez Jr. and Jake. If the former WBC middleweight champion doesn’t take the place of Tyson come November 15, then, it could be a fight that Jake looks to take on afterwards. If not, then he’s still got that deal with the PFL to look at too. Plus, he has been making mention of fighters he’d like to take on inside the cage. But, for now, we’re all looking forward to the fight with Tyson.

  • Jake Paul lays out two fight offer to Conor McGregor ahead of Nate Diaz clash – Dexerto

    Jake Paul lays out two fight offer to Conor McGregor ahead of Nate Diaz clash Instagram: Jake Paul/Conor McGregorJake Paul has, once again, called out Conor McGregor for a double bill of fights with one coming in the boxing ring and another inside the cage for a Mixed Martial Arts clash As he’s made waves in the world of boxing over the last few years, Jake Paul hasn’t been shy in calling out some of the biggest names in the sport – and even those who are simply boxing-adjacent. UFC superstar Conor McGregor has been on Jake’s hitlist for quite some time, even despite the fact that the Irishman was happy to ignore him at first. McGregor’s stance has softened though as he has spoken about Jake on a few occasions. However, he recently refused to use his name when making a prediction for Jake’s upcoming fight with Nate Diaz. That’s only pushed Jake to talk about McGregor even more, and he got additional fuel for his fire when Ben Askren – who Jake previously defeated – said a fight with the Irishman “makes a lot of sense” if he beats Diaz. Jake Paul “down” for Conor McGregor clash after Nate Diaz with two fight plan Jake’s team at Most Valuable Promotions, naturally, posted a full transcript of Askren’s quote on Instagram after the former UFC fighter suggested that they should clash. It didn’t long for Jake to respond to that either, commenting on the post: “Boxing & MMA back to back. I’m down 100%.” That’s a similar offer to the one he made to Diaz, saying they could fight in the boxing ring first before moving on to a clash inside the cage for Mixed Martial Arts. It also plays into Jake’s upcoming debut with the PFL, as he is finally trying his hand inside the cage and getting back to his amateur wrestling roots. He’s still got that first fight with Diaz to come first, but he has spoken a fair bit about having a big-name opponent for his MMA debut. Could that be Conor? Unlikely, given his ties to the UFC. But, a boxing match could be on the cards eventually. There’d be plenty of money left on the table if not.

  • Jake Paul ‘leaks’ and deletes Jorge Masvidal’s return fight as feud continues – Dexerto

    Jake Paul ‘leaks’ and deletes Jorge Masvidal’s return fight as feud continues Instagram: Jake Paul/GamebredFighterJake Paul reignited his longstanding feud with Jorge Masvidal as he appeared to ‘leak’ his next opponent as ‘Gamebred’ has unretired and is looking to fight again. Since stepping into the world of combat sports, Jake Paul has racked up a pretty long list of rivals. He’s not stepped into the ring with almost any of them, but the ‘Problem Child’ has continually trash-talked some big names – including Conor McGregor, Dana White, Canelo Alvarez, and Jorge Masvidal. Masvidal seemed the most likely candidate for him to fight, seeing as ‘Gamebred’ had started to step away from the UFC when he started getting into a war of words with Jake. In fact, Masvidal even accused Jake of dodging an offer to fight him. Given that the former UFC star had retired from combat sports, their feud settled down a bit, but it has now been reignited by Jake after appearing to leak Masvidal’s opponent for his return fight. Jake Paul tweets and deletes Jorge Masvidal’s potential return fight That’s right, on January 2, Masvidal tweeted the word that plenty of fight fans wanted to hear: “Unretired.” Though the former UFC star didn’t say if he’d be returning to the Octagon, getting involved with bare-knuckle fighting, or boxing, Jake quickly chimed in with a possible answer. “Yeah yeah. Going to box Nate Diaz… whatever,” he tweeted. “Come see me when Dana [White] gives you permission.” That post didn’t stay up for too long, with Jake deleting it shortly after. Though, it was around long enough for it to catch the eye of many. Nothing has been confirmed on Masvidal’s end, but it wouldn’t be a surprise if Jake isn’t too far off with his deleted tweet. The ‘Problem Child’ also has his own offers out ofr his next fight, which will happen in March against an, as of yet, unnamed opponent.

  • Jake Paul launches anti-cyberbullying charity “Boxing Bullies” – Dexerto

    Jake Paul launches anti-cyberbullying charity “Boxing Bullies” YouTube: Jake PaulYouTube star-turned-boxing pro Jake Paul is hitting back at cyberbullies with the launch of his new charity, “Boxing Bullies,” ahead of his upcoming bout against MMA champ Tyron Woodley. Jake Paul is the self-described “Problem Child” of the social media world. After founding Team 10 and having a stint on the Disney Channel, the over-the-top YouTuber has now focused all his energy on the sport of boxing. After defeating fellow influencer Deji Olatunji in 2018, Jake went on to go pro, taking out YouTuber AnEsonGib, former NBA pro Nate Robinson and even Olympic MMA fighter Ben Askren. Now, Paul is gearing up to face off with five-time UFC Welterweight Champion Tyron Woodley — but he’s doing more than sweating it up in training camp. View this post on Instagram During an interview after his press conference with Woodley on July 13, Paul revealed that he would be launching his very own charity called “Boxing Bullies,” with the aim of combating cyberbullying. “I’m starting my charity, launching that in 12 days here, called ‘Boxing Bullies,’” he stated. “We’re helping to fight against cyberbullying. I’m just doing me, and I guess the cameras are filming.” On July 20, an Instagram page dedicated to the Boxing Bullies charity sprang up online, introducing the project’s key members and naming Jake Paul as the group’s founder. “The mission of Boxing Bullies is to instill self-confidence, leadership, and courage within the youth through the sport of boxing, while using our platform, voice, and social media to fight back against bullying,” the charity’s mission statement reads. That’s not all; the org also aims to “provide kids with hands-on, professional boxing lessons with top-notch staff and facilities.” View this post on Instagram This isn’t the first time Paul has engaged in charitable acts under the guise of combat sports; in June, the YouTuber helped pay for UFC Flyweight rookie Sarah ‘Too Sweet’ Alpar’s costs to attend and compete in her bout against Erin Blanchfield. While Paul’s charity has yet to officially kick-off, fans and critics alike are curious to see where this new venture will lead.

  • Jake Paul lays out conditions for next boxing opponent after return confirmed – Dexerto

    Jake Paul lays out conditions for next boxing opponent after return confirmed Instagram: Jake PaulJake Paul is set to make his return to the boxing ring in August, and while an opponent hasn’t been named, the social media star knows exactly what he wants from his next fight. After knocking out Tyron Woodley at the end of 2021, Jake Paul went on a bit of a hiatus from boxing as he focused more on the promotion side of things rather than training with his Most Valuable Promotions brand. At the start of February, though, he did show his hand a little, revealing that he was planning on returning to the ring at some point in 2022 and that he’d already started considering opponents. Fast forward to March 25, and the YouTuber has confirmed that he’ll be back in action in August against an, as of yet, unnamed opponent. Though, once again, he knows exactly what type of fighter he wants to take on. The 25-year-old has been teasing the idea of ditching boxing for MMA and taking on the ‘Notorious’ Conor McGregor, but he told TMZ he has ideas if that falls through. “There’s a long list, you know,” Jake said about his potential next opponent. “We’re in talks with a couple of different people. We’re toying around with the idea of going into MMA for the next fight, so, we’re in negotiations. We’re talking to a bunch of different people and seeing who makes the most sense.” The YouTuber reiterated that there is a “long list” of people he wants to take on, but it’s all still up in the air. “It depends on who is ready and who can sell the most amount of pay-per-views,” he added. “As of yet, I haven’t really fought someone with as big of a name as me, I’ve really done all of the promotion, so I want to fight someone with as big of a name as me and that’s what we’re looking to do.” Timestamp of 1:06 A few championship-caliber fighters – including Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. and Mairis Briedis – have already thrown their hat into the ring to fight Jake, with Briedis even offering up a shot at his IBF Cruiserweight title. Jake has previously downplayed the idea of him finally taking on long-time rival Tommy Fury, seeing as the Brit pulled out of their December 2021 bout, but it would certainly have plenty of attention around it.

  • Jake Paul lashes out at hate from the Dolan Twins’ fanbase – Dexerto

    Jake Paul lashes out at hate from the Dolan Twins’ fanbase Jake Paul, Instagram / AllMusicControversial YouTuber Jake Paul is fighting back against alleged hate from the fanbase of YouTube duo ‘The Dolan Twins,’ as stated in a series of Tweets posted in early January of 2019. Paul responded to a Tweet from one of the Twins’ fans on January 7, who claimed that if Ethan Dolan were found to be hiding his possible relationship with YouTuber Emma Chamberlain, she’d hop over to Jake Paul’s fandom out of frustration. Paul appeared to translate the Tweet as thinly-veiled criticism, hitting back at the fan with a scathing post that claimed he was still friends with the brothers – despite their dramatic split from Paul’s Team 10 org back in September of 2017. I don’t get why this fan base still hates on me?? For what? Y’all got your own insecurities..?? The twins and I go way backkk.. probably before 95% of y’all even knew who i was or who they were.. & we’re still REAL life friends till this day.. smh @ the internet — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) January 8, 2019 “I don’t get why this fanbase still hates on me?” Paul wrote. “For what? Y’all got your own insecurities? The twins and I go way back… probably before 95% of y’all even knew who I was or who they were, and we’re still REAL life friends till this day.” While the fan clapped back at Paul’s reply and claimed that her hate had nothing to do with the Twins’ viewer base, Paul went on to call out another Tweet the very next day. Coming from a person who gets hated on so much on the internet… you have no right to judge anyone based on how they act online.. I fucking hate seeing tweets like this you must have so many insecurities that you need to address!! — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) January 8, 2019 “Coming from a person who gets hated on so much on the internet… you have no right to judge anyone based on how they act online,” Paul wrote in response to a fan for bashing Chamberlain. “You must have so many insecurities that you need to address!” Paul himself is currently at the center of two separate scandals, after partnering with an alleged gambling and scam website and participating in a the dangerous ‘Bird Box’ challenge with a controversial video (which has since been deleted).

  • Tommy Fury responds to Jake Paul’s last-ditch fight offer & ludicrous name wager – Dexerto

    Tommy Fury responds to Jake Paul’s last-ditch fight offer & ludicrous name wager Instagram: TommyFury / Instagram: JakePaulJake Paul has one final offer for Tommy Fury and it might just be the most insane yet as the social media star wants the young Fury brother to legally change his name. Paul and Fury seem destined to clash but with offers being rejected left and right along with fake retirements stealing the spotlight, the potential boxing fight has hit every bump in the road. Although the two clearly want to scrap, they’re yet to reach an agreement. As a result, Paul has put forward one final, last-ditch offer to the 22-year-old British celeb. While his last opponent, former UFC champion Tyron Woodley, had to get a permanent tattoo, the stakes have now been raised. In order to meet in the middle, Paul wants Fury to literally wager his surname for a whole year. “His name’s Fury,” Tommy’s older brother and legendary boxer Tyson Fury said on October 6. “If he can’t beat Jake Paul, I’ll have to change his name.” “Betting man” Paul saw this statement and decided to run with it: “Tommy, if you beat me, I will give you an extra $500,000,” he said. “However, if you lose, you have to change your last name for one year to Tommy Fumbles.” Money has been the main sticking point in recent negotiations, but there’s no telling if an extra $500K will entice the 22-year old to sign on the dotted line. I like this bet even better than the Woodley tattoo… https://t.co/9PRSpu7XCU — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) October 7, 2021 Paul shared an official draft of the latest contract on Instagram to reveal the new clause in effect. On one side, Paul has to fork over $500K “directly from [his] purse” if Fury is to win. On the other, Fury has to apply for a legal name change through the Royal Courts of Justice in the United Kingdom within 30 days of their bout, should Paul win instead. 24 hours passed before Fury responded to the latest fight proposal. While nothing is yet official, he does appear open to the wild bet. “Get that sent over to my lawyers right now and we’ll get that looked over and sorted,” Fury said in an Instagram story on October 8. “There’s not a chance in hell you’re winning this fight. You’re leaving on a stretcher, you’re getting knocked spark out, and you know it. Get it over to me now.” From Floyd Mayweather to Conor McGregor and even Olympic gold medalist Claressa Shields, Paul has been actively calling out just about every major combat sports star of late. Though he always seems to circle back to Fury as his next logical opponent. It could just be a matter of time until a proper bout agreement is finalized between the two. Though with more recent reports looping Mayweather back into the conversation, Paul’s next opponent could remain up in the air for quite some time.

  • Jake Paul & KSI trade blows in explosive Twitter spaces chat amid contract negotiations – Dexerto

    Jake Paul & KSI trade blows in explosive Twitter spaces chat amid contract negotiations Instagram: KSI / YouTube: Jake PaulIt’s all but inevitable KSI and Jake Paul will eventually fight, but until that day comes, the two continue to trade blows online as this time, the pair erupted in a heated Twitter space amid alleged contract negotiations. From the early days of the influencer boxing takeover, KSI and Jake Paul have been destined to clash. With both fighting each other’s brothers to kickstart their combat sports careers, they’ve been on a collision course ever since. While the matchup is yet to properly materialize, it appears 2023 is finally the year the two will come face to face inside a boxing ring. However, the highly anticipated clash could have already been locked in, according to Paul, who slammed KSI on Twitter both in a heated rant over a voice call and on the timeline. KSI allegedly received a formal bout agreement “over a month ago,” according to Paul. “I offered to come to the UK, 185 pounds and 10 rounds,” he claimed. “He and his team have yet to respond. The offer is to come to the UK in December, 2023. If he doesn’t respond next week after his show, then it’s going to have to be in the US.” This initial post soon led to an intense Twitter spaces voice call with both Paul and KSI joining in to once again bicker and hurl insults at each other. Firstly taking aim at KSI’s last-minute replacement for the upcoming MF & DAZN Series 004 boxing event, Paul criticized him for not picking a tougher opponent than FaZe Temperrr. “That’s what I did when Tommy [Fury] pulled out,” he yelled, “I fought Woodley again.” No stranger to last-minute changes of his own, Paul has had multiple changes in opponent throughout his career, largely thanks to Fury backing out on multiple occasions. In this instance, he labeled KSI vs Temperrr as a “waste of time.” Next, the two went back and forth over the quality of their matchups. With Paul arguing he’s fought real fighters along the way, he claimed his experience vastly outweighs KSI’s. “Have you fought anyone younger than 40?” KSI asked. “Why would I be afraid? You know I would f*** you up.” “If you would f*** me up, how comes you haven’t done it yet?” Paul replied. “You came back to act like you were gonna fight me, then when the negotiations happened you got scared. Your ego can’t handle this sh.” Admittedly praising a handful of Paul’s tougher matchups, KSI did go on to say he’s “done a great job there,” but the positive remarks didn’t last long. “When I come through and flatline you, you will understand there’s levels to this game,” he added. Having allegedly sent over the aforementioned contract and agreed to a bout with the British influencer, Paul fired back in claiming KSI is “ducking” him. “You’re ducking me and you’re scared. The greatest thing to ever happen to you is Prime and my brother brought that to you. I’ll see you later.” With a date for the tail end of 2023 still seemingly in focus for the inevitable clash, both KSI and Paul ended the conversation by doubling down. “End of the year,” KSI concluded, indicating that push may finally come to shove by the time this calendar year is said and done.

  • Jake Paul lashes out at Deji for his savage comments on boxing rematch – Dexerto

    Jake Paul lashes out at Deji for his savage comments on boxing rematch Jake Paul, Instagram / Deji, YouTubeSocial media star Jake Paul has challenged former boxing opponent and fellow YouTuber Deji Olatjuni to a sparring match, after Deji made some scathing claims about the possibility of a rematch with Paul during the upcoming KSI vs Logan Paul fight. In an interview with TMZ on December 5, Deji claimed that Paul was “too pussy” to fight him again – despite Paul’s overwhelming victory during their bout on August 25. “Obviously I want a rematch,” Deji claimed, “but he’s too pussy to fight me. …he’s too scared to lose his title. It’s too much of a risk, so he won’t fight me again.” While Paul himself stated that he hopes to fight someone noteworthy (such as MMA fighter Dillon Danis or even Chris Brown) during the second episode of his ‘Jake Paul Uncut’ series, he went on to call out Deji for his comments in a scathing Twitter post on December 5. “Dear Deji,” Paul began, “Saw your paparazzi vid that says, ‘I’m scared to rematch you.’ However, I’m not gonna rematch you (you couldn’t even make it the whole fight), it wouldn’t be as exciting.” Dear @Deji This is the last Interface I’ll ever have with you.. Dm for address pic.twitter.com/Yu5pZikLqO — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) December 5, 2018 Paul went on to invite Deji to the Team 10 house for a sparring match, feeling that their bout could get a lot of eyes from their respective audiences on YouTube. Deji is already in hot water with his own brother, KSI, who blocked him on social media after Deji exposed his bank records during a diss track to Sidemen member Randolph – even going on to claim that KSI had gotten a girl pregnant, insinuating that he had pressured her to get an abortion.

  • Jake Paul & KSI could “kill” boxing with YouTube fights: “A disaster for the sport” – Dexerto

    Jake Paul & KSI could “kill” boxing with YouTube fights: “A disaster for the sport” Instagram: KSI/Jake PaulBoxing promoter Eddie Hearn has warned that YouTube boxing involving the likes of Jake Paul and KSI could kill “boxing” if more focus is put on it. For the last couple of years, content creators have been stepping into the world of boxing to settle their scores. It started out with events being solely broadcast on YouTube, but it’s expanded far beyond that. KSI, Jake Paul, and Logan Paul have had wildly successful mainstream pay-per-view events, with KSI launching the X Series alongside DAZN and Jake getting involved with both Showtime and Triller. The events have been major successes, and plenty of fighters and pundits have praised the influencers for bringing new eyes to the sport – even if they have played down the quality of the fights. However, the events could have a more disastrous impact on the sport long term. Eddie Hearn worries YouTube boxing could “kill” the sport That’s according to Matchroom Boxing’s Eddie Hearn, who promoted the first professional YouTube boxing event been KSI and Logan Paul. Though the Brit has been pretty positive in his comments about the events since, he does have some concerns as well. “There’s boxing and there’s YouTube boxing… but we’ve got to be a little bit careful, it puts the pressure on boxing to deliver because if not, this stuff will take over and it will kill the sport long-term,” Hearn told the DAZN Boxing Show. “We know the numbers it does, it does very well. So, if broadcasters start looking at this and go, ‘actually, maybe we’ll just do YouTube boxing’ well that would be a disaster for the sport.” Timestamp of 3:11 Hearn noted that he made a fair chunk of change from being involved with the YouTube fights, but he wasn’t wholly “comfortable” with it due to the quality of the fights. He’s wary about getting involved again, but there are plenty of promoters who are wanting to be involved. KSI’s close relationship with the Sauerland brothers is a prime example of that. It remains to be seen just how much bigger the YouTube boxing events can get, and whether or not they will become the focus of outlets that have angled themselves more towards traditional boxing shows.

  • Jake Paul explains why KSI’s victory over Logan Paul was “rigged” – Dexerto

    Jake Paul explains why KSI’s victory over Logan Paul was “rigged” Following the shocking results of KSI vs Logan Paul 2 on November 9, Jake Paul has claimed his brother’s loss was “rigged” and explained how it’s “bullsh*t” if the decision isn’t overturned. KSI faced off against Logan Paul in Los Angeles, CA on November 9, as the two YouTube stars met in the boxing ring for a rematch, after their first bout in 2018 ended in a tie. However just like the first match, the results were shocking when Logan lost after being deducted two-points in a nail-biter finish. Now, his younger brother has come to his defense. Jake Paul says the results were “rigged” After the event wrapped up and KSI was declared the winner by a split decision, Jake Paul spoke to the press. “I think the committee should contest it,” he argued. “And if they don’t flip that decision, then it’s bullsh*t!” The YouTuber went a step further, and shockingly claimed the whole sport of boxing is fake. “I’ve been in this sport for a year now. I shouldn’t be saying this. But all this f*cking sh*t is rigged!” The younger Paul brother then explained why he felt these events are not fair. “You see people wining and dining each other. You see people at Staples Center. Who was at the Staples Center last night with KSI?” he asked. While it’s not entirely clear who he’s talking about due to noise in the background, the YouTuber seemed to be suggesting that KSI spent time with someone involved in the event. (Timestamp of 2:14 for mobile viewers.) While his younger brother doesn’t seem too happy with the results, Logan Paul has so far been gracious about his loss, and has not made any claims of the results being unfair. When the match ended, KSI and the YouTuber shook hands, and exchanged compliments, burying their feud. Logan even posted on his Twitter on November 10 to praise KSI, and congratulated him on his victory. “Two random kids who made stupid videos turned into professional boxers, sold out the Staples Center. Congrats to the champ, KSI. I can’t wait to see what you do next!” he said. two random kids who made stupid videos turned into professional boxers, sold out the staples center, and fought in front of millions. anything is possible. congrats to the champ @KSIOlajidebt i can’t wait to see what you do next pic.twitter.com/isfGcNFMQc — Logan Paul (@LoganPaul) November 11, 2019 While it remains to be seen if the YouTube star will change his mind on the results after having time to analyze the fight, for the time being he seems to be keeping his head high. Love them or hate them, there is no denying that KSI and Logan Paul got millions of people to tune in, and most of the reactions of the fight have been positive. So both came out as winners in the end.

  • Jake Paul claims UFC Welterweight Champion Kamaru Usman would be “light work” – Dexerto

    Jake Paul claims UFC Welterweight Champion Kamaru Usman would be “light work” Instagram: Jake Paul / Kamaru UsmanAfter being linked to a fight against UFC Welterweight Champion Kamaru Usman multiple times, Jake Paul claims the number one pound-for-pound fighter would be “light work” for him. Kamaru Usman called out Jake Paul all the way back in April 2021. Paul accepted the ‘challenge.’ However, Usman decided he didn’t want to engage in “play fighting” — no matter how much money it made him. A month later in May 2021, Mike Tyson told fans he still wanted to see them square off in the ring. Paul claimed conversations were “happening.” However, it didn’t eventuate, and both fighters moved on to different challenges. Usman beat Colby Covington for the second time at UFC 268 in Madison Square Garden on November 6. Meanwhile, Paul finally locked in a date for his bout against Tommy Fury, which is happening on December 18. However, if the Usman and Paul did end up locking horns, Paul claims it would be “light work” for him. He made the call during an interview with TMZ Sports and explained why. “I mean, he could barely beat up a 170-pounder,” said Paul. “He took a lot of shots, man. He’s getting old. He’s 35, and I think that’s starting to show. I think he is out of his prime already, and he’s light work.” After reiterating that point multiple times, Paul added: “Look what I did to Tyron Woodley. The five-time UFC champion. I know Kamaru beat Woodley. But in boxing, it’s completely different. I’d make light work of him.” Usman hasn’t responded to Paul’s comments. When asked about who his next fight could be against, he name-dropped Leon Edwards and Vicente Luque, two UFC fighters in his division, as potential candidates. Based on that response, it seems like a boxing match against Paul isn’t on his radar — at least not anytime soon.

Meanwhile, Jake Paul simply uploaded his own video of the confrontation to Instagram with the caption “Will Smith’d em,” referencing the Oscar-winner’s viral moment from the end March.

  • Jake Paul issues a warning to TikTokers who leaked his home address – Dexerto

    Jake Paul issues a warning to TikTokers who leaked his home address Jake Paul, YouTubeYouTuber Jake Paul is a hugely popular content creator, boasting well over 19 million subscribers — but his fame doesn’t prevent breaches of personal privacy, with his home address allegedly being leaked on TikTok. Jake Paul has been relatively silent in the days following his viral boxing win over fellow YouTuber AnEsonGib on January 30, with the star’s last upload going out on February 22. This upload preceded the slew of online backlash he received over his divisive Tweet about anxiety, which he claimed was “created by you” — leading many to criticize him over seemingly trivializing what can be a severely debilitating mental condition. After nearly a month off the grid, Jake Paul teased the return of his vlogs on March 20; but his new video contained more than his usual off-the-wall antics. One portion of his five-minute vlog — similar to both David Dobrik and older brother Logan Paul — includes a humorous threat towards some unnamed TikTokers, who purportedly leaked the address of his Team 10 mansion on the application. According to Paul, the video gained over 70 million views before being taken down — and he wasn’t happy with the attention the clip received. Donning a hazmat suit and mask in the spirit of current global affairs, the YouTuber even pulled out an automatic weapon, giving a stern message to the TikTokers responsible for the leak. “Our house address got leaked on TikTok,” he explained while standing in front of his property. “That s**t got 70 million views, so… Any of you little TikTok f***ers wanna come out here, you’re gonna be lipsyncing in hell!” (Topic begins at 2:00 for mobile viewers) Jake Paul isn’t the only internet superstar dealing with serious invasions of privacy, lately; TikToker Charli D’Amelio recently opened up about her own experiences with online fame, claiming that fans will even try to enter bathroom stalls with her for the chance of getting a photo. With names like PewDiePie, David Dobrik, and even Mr Beast revealing their own run-ins with stalkers and overenthusiastic fans, there’s no time like the present to appreciate the value of personal space.

  • Jake Paul jumps into the Deji vs KSI feud, Logan Paul style – Dexerto

    Jake Paul jumps into the Deji vs KSI feud, Logan Paul style Jake Paul, Twitter / KSI, YouTubeThe beef between YouTube brothers KSI and Deji continues to escalate, after Deji leaked KSI’s bank records during a controversial diss track. Now, YouTuber Jake Paul is fanning the flames of war even further – much in the style of his own older brother, Logan Paul. Deji’s feud with KSI heightened after the youngest brother was featured on an episode of Logan Paul’s ‘imPaulsive’ podcast on December 6. During the episode, Deji called KSI’s apology video “trash,” and even revealed that his parents are also feuding with their oldest son in a family-wide war. YouTuber Jake Paul has since brought himself into the mix, inviting KSI onto a podcast of his own design in the hopes of giving him a similar platform to speak out about the scandal. “Ayeee, KSI,” Paul wrote in a Tweet on December 7, “You can come on my podcast if you want. I don’t have one but…😂 Thought it’d be fair.” Ayeee @KSIOlajidebt you can come on my podcast if you want… I don’t have one but..:joyful: thought it’d be fair — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) December 8, 2018 While Jake’s offer might be tempting, it is highly likely that KSI will turn the youngest Paul brother down, as messages sent from Sidemen member Zerkaa to Drama Alert’s Daniel ‘KEEMSTAR’ Keem revealed that neither KSI nor his YouTube group will be responding to Deji’s scathing diss track. In addition, Zerkaa cited their feud as a “genuine, sensitive family issue,” which KSI admitted that he’d hoped to keep private in a (now-deleted) response video on December 6. Thanks to KEEMSTAR’s digging, the brothers’ feud appears to be 100% genuine. However, the Drama Alert host is now pinning the blame on Deji – even alleging that the YouTuber is milking the argument in an attempt to gain subscribers.

Agents appeared to seize several weapons and firearms during the raid. In a short video on August 12, Paul clarified that the FBI raid was “entirely related” to his appearance at looting in Scottsdale, Arizona in May, and had nothing to do with any other claims that critics may be tossing around. hi @jakepaul! what coronavirus precautions will you be taking for this shoot? considering your last music video shoot had no social distancing whatsoever, i’m sure the @MayorOfLA is curious as well. https://t.co/0TDPckf1Yg — tyler oakley 🙋🏼♂️ (@tyleroakley) August 19, 2020 While the fact that such a large personality in the YouTube scene was being raided by the FBI was shocking enough, many people are upset that Jake will be pulling together lots of people into a small space during a pandemic, yet again. In July, Jake Paul was condemned by the Mayor of Calabasas for hosting a huge party with several high profile YouTube and TikTok stars in attendance including Bryce Hall and Tana Mongeau. It turns out that the party was part of the filming for a music video to Jake’s latest track “Fresh Outta London.” In the last few days, the backlash over these controversial parties has really ramped up with other popular influencers such as Tyler Oakley calling them out for their bad behavior, and commentary channels exposing the true extent of these gatherings.

  • Jake Paul ‘isn’t interested’ in the sociopath scare of Shane Dawson docuseries – Dexerto

    Jake Paul ‘isn’t interested’ in the sociopath scare of Shane Dawson docuseries YouTuber Jake Paul has been the center of ample internet controversy since the release of Shane Dawson’s latest documentary series, which entertains the idea that Paul – and his family – could be sociopathic. While Paul created an initial video responding to the series, he has since released a few additional statements through Twitter, which revealed his lack of interest in Dawson’s ‘sociopath’ focus. “I hope he can actually make it clear who I am and why I’ve done certain things, and show the side of me that no one has ever seen,” Paul wrote. “That’s why I agreed to do the series… the ‘sociopath’ stuff doesn’t interest me.” I love Shane & am trusting him 2 carry out the rest of the series..

Dawson has since released a third video, where he explored the Paul family’s dynamics through their YouTube channels – which led him to some interesting conclusions as to the Paul brothers’ controversial behavior. The fourth episode of Dawson’s series will further investigate the Paul family, and is set to air on Wednesday, October 3.

Following off the back of his loss to Tommy Fury earlier in 2023, before redeeming himself by beating MMA fighter Nate Diaz by unanimous decision, Jake Paul is now gearing up for his next bout. Set to step in the ring on December 15, ‘The Problem Child’ will be touching gloves with 10-1 professional boxer Andre August. August, 35, has only had one fight in the last four years, leaving many criticizing Jake Paul for his choice of opponent.

However, Paul is still struggling to sell out his next fight.

Holding a capacity of just 3,000 people, tickets went on sale eight days ago at the time of writing. However, ‘The Problem Child’ is yet to sell out the fight. According to MMA reporter Aaron Bronsteter, it appears that only half of the venue has been sold out as of yet. It’s worth noting that the fight is still weeks away, meaning there’s still plenty of time for fans to grab tickets. On the other hand, KSI and Logan Paul managed to sell out the entire AO Arena, the largest indoor venue in the UK in a matter of hours after tickets went live for the Prime Card. Furthermore, the Prime Card reportedly sold 1.3 million buys, making it making it DAZN’s biggest show of the year so far. Paul’s next fight will be free to view on DAZN. However, you’ll first need to purchase a subscription in order to watch on the night.

  • Jake Paul is “ready to step in” if Tommy Fury pulls out of Paul Bamba fight – Dexerto

    Jake Paul is “ready to step in” if Tommy Fury pulls out of Paul Bamba fight YouTube: IMPAULSIVEJake Paul will be at the Global Titans boxing event on November 13 as the Special Guest of the night, but he’s ready to step into the ring if his former opponent Tommy Fury takes a last-minute rain check. On October 3 it was announced that a fight between Tommy Fury and Paul Bamba had been added to the Deji vs Mayweather card slated for November 13. But Fury’s recent history with Jake Paul has boxing fans wondering if he will actually make it to the ring. Earlier this year, Fury was scheduled to fight Paul at an event over the summer, but Tommy claimed he had complications when trying to enter the United States that caused him to miss the fight. But with a week to go until the Global Titans event, Fury has yet to encounter issues while attempting to enter Dubai. On November 6, the Global Titans’ official Twitter account announced that the Problem Child Jake Paul would be at the event, but not as a fighter. Instead, Paul is the special guest for the night and will be keeping a close eye on the main and co-main events. Jake Paul ready to “step in” for Tommy Fury Of course, it wouldn’t be an official Jake Paul appearance if he didn’t find a way to ruffle some feathers. And once again, he has Tommy Fury in his crosshairs. “Dubai… it’s going to be a party!” Jake Paul is quoted as saying by Global Titans. “I’m ready to step in if Tommy pulls out.” This is in reference to the two times Tommy Fury backed out of fights with Paul. And while Tommy Fury has a stunning 8-0 record, Paul Bomba doesn’t look too shabby either. He has a record of five wins and two losses since he debuted as a pro boxer in early 2021. 🗣️ @JakePaul: “”Dubai…It’s about to be a party!

Bamba and Paul are in the same weight class, Paul is coming off a bout with Anderson Silva which means he isn’t out of practice, and Jake has already expressed his interest in stepping in the ring if need be.

  • Jake Paul is boxing’s “most feared man” claims UFC legend Chael Sonnen – Dexerto

    Jake Paul is boxing’s “most feared man” claims UFC legend Chael Sonnen YouTube: Chael Sonnen/Instagram: Jake PaulMMA legend Chael Sonnen believes that Jake Paul is the “most feared man in boxing” as it stands and believes that fighters are actively avoiding him even if they believe they can win. With his return to the ring scheduled for August, Jake Paul is still looking for an opponent to face off against as he looks to stretch his professional boxing record to 6-0. The YouTuber-turned-boxer has been locked in a war of words with UFC legend Michael Bisping over a potential fight, and while ‘The Count’ is up for the fight, he’s got a few issues in getting cleared because of a long-standing eye injury. Other potential opponents, though, have been less forthcoming. Jake has called out plenty of different fighters to be his dance partner for that August fight, but, he may have trouble getting exactly who he wants according to Chael Sonnen, as the MMA icon believes fighters are now actively ducking the social media star. Sonnen, who retired from MMA back in 2019, has been supportive of the Paul brothers getting involved with fighting and recently dished on Jake’s in-ring return – especially seeing as he wants to take on a ‘real’ boxer. “Jake is not only looking for spoofs, he is willing to get in there with top boxers. Guys, boxers don’t want to get in there with him,” Sonnen said in his April 21 video, stating that people have to give Jake props for wanting big fight like against Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez. “Right now, he is the most feared man in boxing. You want Jake to fight a boxer? You’re upset that Jake keeps calling people out? How about somebody that you like, that you think fits the criteria, goes and calls Jake out because he hasn’t said no yet. He hasn’t been called out. Nobody in boxing wants to get in there with him because they’re really not as sure as they pretend they are.” The former UFC contender noted that while boxers want everything that Jake brings to the table – the interest and the main event status on a card – they just don’t want to fight him. It remains to be seen as to who the 25-year-old will face off against in his return to the ring and if he wins, who knows where he’ll go next.

  • Jake Paul is getting clowned for his new “Castaway” hairstyle – Dexerto

    Jake Paul is getting clowned for his new “Castaway” hairstyle Instagram: jakepaulJake Paul debuted a new hairstyle on social media, prompting a cohort of both fans and critics to roast him just months before his boxing match with Mike Tyson. Boxer and entrepreneur Jake Paul, 27, revealed a new hairstyle in a photo dump to Instagram on April 26. Though one of Jake’s last IG posts featured him and his girlfriend, Jutta Leerdam, celebrating their first anniversary on April 12, his appearance changed tremendously in his latest photos. Most fans of Jake can recognize him by his short blonde locks and chin strap beard, but in his newest photos, he debuted long, curly blonde hair, prompting fans to roast him for his new style. “Bro looking like blonde Bob Ross,” joked one. “Get a haircut and beard trim, starting to look like Tom Hanks in Castaway,” added another. Others speculated if his hair growth was real or if it was a wig. “Damn, how fast does your hair grow?” asked one fan. “Dude wishes he could grow hair like that,” said another. Some viewers also added their support for his upcoming fight against Mike Tyson, whom he confirmed in the caption of his IG post that he was “locked in… training to fight.” “Let’s go champ,” one fan said. “Jake will win!” added another. Jake’s boxing match against Mike is scheduled to take place on July 20 at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. In an episode this April of Jake’s podcast ‘BS w/ Jake Paul,’ he explained that he was “nervous” for his upcoming match, but he was ‘excited’ by that same nervousness that continues to keep him “motivated.” “It excites me that I have my toughest, craziest, and most powerful opponent to date. And the challenge of going up to heavyweight is kind of fun,” Jake said on his podcast. Despite Jake facing the legendary “Iron Mike” in the coming months, he also said in his IG caption that he was “living that island life” and that he was working on a “new project launching soon.” There have been no details at this time of writing of what his “new project” entails. But when it comes to the “Problem Child,” you just never know.

  • Jake Paul invites LeBron James to Tyron Woodley boxing match: “Pull up” – Dexerto

    Jake Paul invites LeBron James to Tyron Woodley boxing match: “Pull up” YouTube: Jake Paul, Jimmy Kimmel LiveYouTube star Jake Paul is gearing up for his boxing match against UFC champ Tyron Woodley on August 29, and one of the NBA’s greatest all-time talents, LeBron James, might be in attendance. Jake Paul is one of the most bombastic creators on YouTube right now. After breaking into the boxing scene in 2018, the youngest Paul brother has gone on to accrue a 3-0 professional record alongside his fame as an influencer. It’s safe to say that Paul is putting his job as a YouTuber on the back burner, going full speed ahead on his boxing career to take on his biggest fight yet with five-time UFC Welterweight Champion Tyron Woodley at the end of the month. This marks Jake’s greatest challenge yet. After defeating retired basketball pros and former Olympic athletes, Paul is going head to head with one of the UFC’s biggest stars, who was active in the sport’s professional circuit up until just recently. View this post on Instagram To witness this historic moment, Paul is making sure that he’s filling the seats of the Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse with as many notable athletes as possible… including LeBron James. During an interview with TMZ, Jake was asked if he’d reached out to LeBron James’ camp to invite him to the match, after the YouTuber had publicly extended an invitation to 14 Olympians from Ohio who’d represented America in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. “I think it’s just really cool that this is sort of an Ohio affair,” Jake said. “Not a lot of boxing matches take place in Ohio, let alone Cleveland, so to be able to bring it home and invite everyone from Ohio — I’m trying to get everyone here, from LeBron to MGK.” I’m excited to announce that @showtimeboxing and I are extending an invite to my Aug 29th fight to all of the 14 women and men from Ohio who represented us in the Tokyo Olympics. Would be an honor to fight in front of all of you🙏🏼 — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) August 11, 2021 Paul went on to say that he hasn’t reached out to LeBron’s team personally just yet; but after being asked what he would say to the Lakers forward if he were listening, he couldn’t help but open his arms in true “Problem Child” fashion.

I was yellin’ at you from the crowds. And so I think it’s only right that you pull up and, y’know, ‘Jake Jake!’” He yelled, pantomiming a cheering fan holding up a sign. “LeBron, this one’s for the city, man. Pull up.” Whether or not the King will actually be in attendance remains to be seen — but it certainly would make an already hyped-up event even more eye-catching than before.

  • Jake Paul is being accused of forging signatures, and it could land him in big trouble – Dexerto

    Jake Paul is being accused of forging signatures, and it could land him in big trouble Social Media Star Jake Paul is in hot water for allegedly forging the signature of YouTuber Max Goodrich, who claims that Paul has ‘ruined his good credit.’ According to legal documents procured by TMZ, Goodrich is suing Paul for supposedly forging his signature to lease out a rental property, which he promptly trashed – subsequently ruining Goodrich’s ‘good credit.’ Goodrich also claimed that he and Paul had considered moving into the home together, but Goodrich had ultimately backed out of the deal. Paul had decided to use his name on the lease, even though Goodrich wasn’t living there. That’s not all – owners of the rental property are taking legal action against both parties for “leaving the place in ruins,” despite Goodrich’s apparent lack of involvement in the scandal whatsoever. Goodrich is responding to the lawsuit by suing Paul, asking that he cover all damages laid out in the homeowners’ dispute. However, TMZ has since updated this story with claims that Paul never actually forged Goodrich’s signature at all. A source close to the youngest Paul brother has stated that Goodrich’s signature is nowhere to be found on the original lease of the property, and claims that Goodrich was only listed as a ‘potential tenant.’ According to the source, the original tenants of the property were listed as ‘10 Digit Media,’ a social media label for Paul’s ‘Team 10’ crew of YouTube personalities. This isn’t the first property Jake Paul has destroyed, either – the YouTuber was sued in 2016 in a $2.5 million lawsuit for trashing another rental home, as well.

  • Jake Paul insults Khabib in scathing Tweet following post-match brawlout – Dexerto

    Jake Paul insults Khabib in scathing Tweet following post-match brawlout Popular YouTuber Jake Paul is no stranger to exchanging blows on live TV – and he had a few choice words for Khabib Nurmagomedov in regards to his post-match brawl during UFC 229. While Paul is team McGregor all the way, his Tweet revealed more than just an Irish bias. Paul’s post is nothing short of scathing. On top of calling Khabib a sore winner, he likewise stated that Khabib didn’t deserve anything he has. “Khabib, you’re a piece of shit,” he wrote. “You deserve nothing you have. You’re a sore winner.” He went on to cite his own controversies, and claimed that since he is one of the most hated figures on social media, his hatred of Khabib marks a massive statement in regards to the fighter. “I’m more hated than you, and I’m telling you that you’re a piece of shit,” he said. “I hope you take this to heart if you read this.” Khabib you’re a piece of shit… You deserve nothing you have. You’re a sore winner. I’m more hated than u, and I’m telling you that you’re a piece of shit. I hope you take this to heart if you read this. & Ive never hated on anyone in my life. It’s not in my blood. — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) October 7, 2018 He then implied that he hated Khabib for his actions, even though Paul claimed that such emotions aren’t in his nature. “…and I’ve never hated on anyone in my life,” he continued. “It’s not in my blood.” Khabib’s victory over McGregor at UFC 229 turned into a crowd-wide brawl after Khabib jumped out of the octagon to throw punches at McGregor’s jiu-jitsu coach. In addition, one of Khabib’s teammates attacked the recently-defeated McGregor, which has led to massive division between UFC fans and fighters alike. Jake Paul is one of many fans who have taken issue with Khabib’s actions, which could lead to his title being stripped, according to UFC President Dana White.

  • Jake Paul invests in UFC as Dana White feud over fighter pay ramps up – Dexerto

    Jake Paul invests in UFC as Dana White feud over fighter pay ramps up Instagram: Jake Paul/YouTube: Mac LifeYouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul is investing in the UFC as he continues to ramp up his feud with Dana White and look to help get fighters better pay. When Jake Paul first got involved with the fight game back in 2018, not many onlookers would have predicted that not only would he carry on, but that he’d take it to new levels. After knocking out Tyron Woodley in their rematch at the end of 2021, the social media star has suggested that he may switch up and move into MMA, rather than take another challenge in the boxing world. The 24-year-old has revealed some training footage of his MMA work, and has well-documented back and forth with UFC President Dana White – regularly taking personal shots at White over fighter pay and attacking the UFC as a whole for not paying fighters enough. As the pair have gone back-and-forth, Dana has taken shots at the pay-per-view buyrate around Jake’s fights, while the YouTuber has chipped in to help UFC fighters pay for their fight camps. In his newest move, ‘The Problem Child’ is actually investing in the UFC’s parent company – the Endeavor Group – in a bid to help fighters get more pay and healthcare. “I’ve invested in EDR (UFC) stock with my partner Geoffrey Woo to focus on UFCs ESG standards relating to fighters,” Jake tweeted on January 25. “We believe EDR can drive long-term economic value by increasing UFC fighter pay & providing them healthcare. Reaching out to @EngineNo_1 to partner on this endeavor.” I’ve invested in EDR (UFC) stock with my partner @geoffreywoo 2 focus on UFCs ESG standards relating to fighters. We believe EDR can drive long-term economic value by increasing UFC fighter pay & providing them healthcare. Reaching out to @EngineNo_1 to partner on this “endeavor” — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) January 25, 2022 With the Endeavor Group being publicly listed on the New York Stock Exchange, it’s not like Jake is attempting a fully-fledged takeover, but his involvement is likely to see interest in the stock rise. The move also gives him a foot in the door with the UFC, but who knows just how far things will go. We’ll just have to wait and see given how Dana says he’s not talking about Jake any longer.

  • Jake Paul “in trouble” for teasing massive switch away from boxing – Dexerto

    Jake Paul “in trouble” for teasing massive switch away from boxing YouTube: Jake PaulJake Paul has revealed that he landed himself in a bit of hot water after teasing his move into the world of MMA despite the fact he’s boxing Anderson Silva soon. Since making his move into the world of professional boxing, Jake Paul has made plenty of waves in the combat sports scene – especially as he’s regularly fought fighters crossing over from MMA. Even though he’s fighting Anderson Silva at the end of October, ‘The Problem Child’ still has a lengthy hit list of potential opponents, ranging from Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez, Mike Tyson, Conor McGregor, and even Nate Diaz. It’s a mix of boxing and MMA royalty. Jake has even teased the fact that he might soon swap boxing and the Queensberry rules for a run inside the Octagon of Mixed Martial Arts. Though, that’s also landed him in a bit of trouble. Jake Paul got in trouble for MMA announcement teaser The YouTuber-turned-boxer, who has open offers from a number of different MMA promotions, noted at the end of September that he had an announcement coming about getting involved in the sport. However, when he touched on it during an interview with MMAJunkie, Jake revealed that it didn’t go down too well. “I can’t actually. I sort of got in trouble for talking too soon,” Jake said. “I just got excited!” The social media phenom was quizzed on whether or not he might appear in a cage within the next two years, but he remained coy. “I wouldn’t be disappointed, no (if there was no MMA fight before 2024), we’ll just see what happens man,” he added. Timestamp of 3:12 As noted, while Jake has teased an announcement, there hasn’t been anything further from any companies that could connect the dots. While he’s spoken about potentially fighting in the UFC, that appears to be off the table given his long-standing beef with Dana White. Who knows though, maybe we’ll see Jake in Bellator or PFL before long.

  • Jake Paul in UFC? Dana White admits “never say never” over YouTuber’s MMA fight rumors – Dexerto

    Jake Paul in UFC? Dana White admits “never say never” over YouTuber’s MMA fight rumors YouTube: FULL SEND/NELKUFC President Dana White admitted that Jake Paul in the UFC is a possibility as he’ll “never say never,” but he has some doubts that the YouTuber would make the leap. Following his devastating knockout victory over Tyron Woodley in their rematch, all eyes have been on who Jake Paul will fight next. The 25-year-old has been tipped to fight former Middleweight boxing king Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. and has been called out by other boxers as well. However, the social media star has revealed that he’s been training in mixed martial arts too, and could even be in line to join the ranks of Bellator or PFL to step inside the cage. If he does step into the MMA world, fans would naturally want to see Jake in the UFC at some point, given that is the biggest stage. Though, he’s had a well-documented beef with UFC President Dana White. However, Dana is “done” with that from his side. The UFC boss joined the NELK Boys on their FULL SEND Podcast on January 20th, and naturally got to talking about the long-standing beef with Jake. “It’s not that he doesn’t have my respect, I don’t even know the kid. To be honest with you, right here right now, this is the last time you’ll hear me talking about him. I’m done with it,” Dana said, noting that Jake didn’t respond to his drug-testing challenge, so he’s over the back-and-forth. White was quickly quizzed by the YouTube stars on whether Jake could make the move to MMA and, eventually, the UFC too. “Would I let him (in the UFC)? Well, he can do whatever he wants to do. I don’t know. I don’t think that would ever happen but listen, I never say never anymore,” he responded. Topic starts at 14:05 The UFC boss noted that he never expected to promote a fight between a UFC fighter and Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather, but that happened back in 2017 with Conor McGregor, so nothing is off the table. Beyond talking a bit about Cesar Chavez Jr., and wanting to train in MMA at the famed AKA Gym, Jake has been a little more low-key about what his next move might be. So, we’ll have to keep an eye on things and whether or not his potential MMA switch becomes reality.

  • Jake Paul hits Elon Musk & Mark Zuckerberg with $100M fight offer – Dexerto

    Jake Paul hits Elon Musk & Mark Zuckerberg with $100M fight offer YouTube: BS w/ Jake PaulYouTube star Jake Paul has given tech CEOs Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg a $100 million offer to take their supposed fight to the Middle East and donate all proceeds to charity. The proposed MMA fight between Twitter owner Elon Musk and Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg continues to be a hot topic of conversation online, as fans can’t wait for two of the world’s leading social media figureheads to finally duke it out in the octagon. Although rumors continue to rise about this possible bout, nothing has yet been solidly set in stone… but Zuckerberg’s recent training session with UFC champs Alexander Volkanovski and Israel Adesanya is making speculation rise to a fever pitch. Jake Paul is the latest public figure to give his two cents about their proposed match. The YouTuber-turned-boxer has had his fair share of fights, and believes Musk will come out on top due to the supposed six-inch height difference between the two men. Jake Paul offers Elon Musk & Mark Zuckerberg $100M to fight for charity However, that wasn’t the major point of conversation regarding his opinions on their highly-anticipated fight. In typical Jake Paul fashion, he hit the billionaires with a massive deal, offering them $100 million to take their bout to the Middle East and donate their purses to charity. “I have a $100 million offer for Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg to take this fight to the Middle East, to promote it, to put it on for charity,” he announced during an episode of his podcast. “[I] can guarantee $100 million to charity. We wanna get involved and help make this a reality.” (Topic begins at 2:20) Of course, Paul couldn’t help but take shots at UFC prez Dana White during his spiel, who has supposedly been in touch with both Musk and Zuckerberg about their possible match. “It’s the biggest sporting event ever, and that’s why I think there should be people who want this sport to be better and not just greedy people like Dana White to get involved, because it’s gonna benefit the UFC,” Jake continued. “I think if Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg are true about their word, doing it for charity and doing it for a bigger cause… I don’t think he should partner with someone who’s a piece of sh*t like Dana White.” For now, Jake is gearing up for his own fight against Nate Diaz in August — but fans will have to wait and see if either Elon or Zuckerberg take him up on his offer.

  • Jake Paul hits out at fans “hating” 10-1 pro boxer as next opponent – Dexerto

    Jake Paul hits out at fans “hating” 10-1 pro boxer as next opponent YouTube: imPaulsiveJake Paul has hit out at critics “hating” on him for picking Andre August as his next boxing opponent, giving the 35-year-old a number of advantages over himself. When Jake Paul revealed that he’d be returning to the boxing ring on December 15 there was plenty of speculation about who he might fight. Tommy Fury wasn’t an option given he fought in October, so many pointed to former UFC fighter ‘Platinum’ Mike Perry as he prepared as the backup fighter for Logan Paul vs Dillon Danis. His Most Valuable Promotion brand teased that it’d be a pro boxer and a tougher test than the likes of those faced by Floyd Mayweather, Tyson Fury, and Canelo Alvarez in their respective ninth fights. However, fans were surprised to discover that it’d be Andre August. The 35-year-old from Texas has amassed a 10-1-1 record, but has mostly fought on small shows in his home state and took a four-year hiatus from boxing in recent years. Jake Paul hits out at criticism of him fighting Andre August There have been many critics suggesting that Jake, who is aiming to be a world champion, is still cherry-picking opponents to buff up his boxing record. However, he’s clapped back at those. “Ask and I shall deliver. August has more KO’s than me, more wins than me, more experience than me, but I like to gamble. The path to world champ starts here. Just straight up boxing,” he tweeted after the fight was announced. Jake quickly followed that up with another message to the critics too. “Shut the f*ck up if you still hating. Boxer true and true. Better record than me. More wins by KO than me. Same weight,” he tweeted after the announcement. The YouTuber-turned-boxer will likely enter the fight as a heavy favorite, despite giving the experience advantage to August, simply because he’s an unknown. He’ll also likely continue to face criticism right up to fight night and the time they first touch gloves. Though, in typical Jake fashion, he probably won’t be too fussed.

  • Jake Paul hits back at Dana White in ongoing UFC feud: “Pay your fighters” – Dexerto

    Jake Paul hits back at Dana White in ongoing UFC feud: “Pay your fighters” Wikimedia Commons / Twitter: Jake PaulJake Paul hit back at Dana White’s comments about the PPV numbers for his fight against Ben Askren, claiming the UFC President needs to “pay his fighters their fair share.” Jake Paul and Dana White have been feuding for a while now. However, it escalated in recent weeks after the UFC President threatened to take legal action against Jake if he keeps calling out UFC fighters. Seemingly unbothered by this, Jake showed up to the UFC 261 event in Jacksonville, Florida, despite being greeted by a symphony of boos and chants after being spotted in the crowd. In the post-fight press conference, a journalist asked Dana what he thought about the PPV numbers in the Triller Fight Club PPV, and he claimed they were “full of sh*t” and “didn’t pull those kinds of numbers at all.” Jake responded by writing a lengthy post on Twitter and hit back at Dana by claiming he’s already made more than “all but two UFC fighters have in history” and urged him to “pay his fighters their fair share.” “Dana, you claimed you would bet $1 million on me losing,” he said. [You also] set up Askren to train with Freddie Roach [and] gave him full access to UFC Performance Institute, and he still got his ass handed to him.” Then, he called him a “douche” and claimed he “made more in total pay than any other fighter in UFC history.” “Maybe it’s time to pay your fighters their fair share? No wonder they all want to get into boxing… Why are UFC fighters so underpaid [compared to] boxers? Why did I make more in my third fight than all but two UFC fighters have in history? I know why…” It’s not the first time the two have butted heads, and it won’t be the last. Perhaps the feud will compel Dana to consider making a fight out of spite, which is probably exactly what Jake wants.

  • Jake Paul hits back at accusations he’s taking steroids for Tyron Woodley fight – Dexerto

    Jake Paul hits back at accusations he’s taking steroids for Tyron Woodley fight Instagram: Jake Paul / ShowtimeJake Paul denied accusations he’s taking performance-enhancing drugs in the lead-up to his fight against Tyron Woodley, claiming he gets tested regularly and that people are doing it for clout. The highly-anticipated fight between Jake Paul and Tyron Woodley is fast approaching. Things were already heated between them. However, it kicked up a notch after one of Paul’s crew members appeared to have a verbal spat with Woodley’s mother. And if that wasn’t already enough drama, MMA coach Firas Zahabi, who coached UFC legend George St-Pierre, claimed he “definitely thinks” Paul is using performance-enhancing drugs to “make up for what he lacks.” But during an interview with True Geordie on the first episode of his new fighting podcast series, The Pain Game, Paul denied those claims. He explained how they’re wrong, and why he thinks people are making them. “My manager texted me [and told me] that George St Pierre’s coach is saying that you’re using performance-enhancing drugs,” he said. “These guys are trying to do anything at this point to discredit me, to make me look stupid, or to make any excuse. Paul also explained that the “craziest part” about the accusations is that they don’t count because he’s now doing “real professional fights,” and he gets drug tested regularly. “How can you even make this claim? It’s clout. They’re running out of excuses.” “I’m over here eating ice cream, and these guys are accusing me of taking performance-enhancing drugs. I’m packing on some fat because I’m going to drive that fat through Tyron Woodley’s skull. That’s what gives me my power.” The lead-up to the fight has been an eventful one, and the performance-enhancing drug claims are the latest addition in what has been a drama-filled roller-coaster ride. But once they step into the ring on August 29, the only thing that matters is who reigns supreme. And with Paul going in as the bookie’s favorite, Woodley could very well be the next stepping stone in his emerging legacy.

  • Jake Paul hits back at “stupid” claims that Logan beef is for boxing match – Dexerto

    Jake Paul hits back at “stupid” claims that Logan beef is for boxing match YouTube: Jake PaulJake Paul has said that the current drama between him and Logan Paul isn’t a marketing ploy for a boxing match, and it’s just the “downfall” of their relationship. Over the last decade, as Jake and Logan Paul have been dominating the likes of Vine, YouTube, and beyond, they’ve clashed heads like all brothers do. The YouTube stars have done everything from shade each other in diss tracks, have heated face-to-face arguments, and they even took over YouTube Rewind one year to put their beef on full view. Though, no matter what, they typically come back and support one another. In the past few weeks, they’ve been clashing again, specifically after Jake took issue with the fact that he and Logan don’t do business together and his brother sided with his longtime rival, KSI. Logan wanted to keep their beef private from now on, and it seems Jake is in line with that too as he doesn’t think they’ll settle it in the ring. Jake Paul explains why Logan Paul beef isn’t hype for a fight It came up during the September 7 episode of BS with Jake Paul as his co-host, Jasper, brought up the fact that some fans think the brothers are scheming for a big fight at the end of things. “Yeah, it’s stupid as f*ck. We’re not fighting,” Jake quickly answered, as his other co-host, Brandon, noted it’s the “downfall of the relationship” rather than genius marketing. “People really think we’re marketing a fight, that is crazy.” Jake poked fun at people claiming a fight is happening, adding that he’s “crying” while people are plotting. Though, he added it would be “great” marketing if they could really whip up a fake feud. Timestamp of 2:40 As noted, it’s not the first, nor will it be the last time the brothers butt heads about something. It’s happened so many times in the past. Plus, a fight between them has long been talked and their dad, Greg Paul, has repeatedly shut it down. So, it looks like a pipedream that is never going to happen.

  • Jake Paul hits back at Tyson Fury’s brutal fight prediction – Dexerto

    Jake Paul hits back at Tyson Fury’s brutal fight prediction Screengrabs via: iFL TV / Instagram: Jake PaulJake Paul has responded to Tyson Fury’s claims that younger brother Tommy Fury could have “his worst night ever” and still come out on top – perhaps more calmly than most would expect. YouTube boxing’s next major instalment is fast approaching – with many fans excited for Jake Paul to meet Tommy Fury on December 18, the first time Paul will fight a currently active professional boxer. We’ve seen him overcome retired basketball pros like Nate Robinson and former MMA fighters like Ben Askren and Tyron Woodley. Because of this record, Tommy Fury’s older brother Tyson, who recently defeated Deontay Wilder in an epic conclusion the pair’s boxing trilogy, has suggested it will be a walk in the park for his relative. He commented that Tommy could “turn up with broken ribs, a broken left hand, two left feet, his clothes on back to front and with the flu” and still win. Naturally, the provocative comments elicited a response from the American, but it was perhaps less fiery than one would expect. A December 3 tweet saw Paul simply comment: “I smell cap”. Paul’s comments essentially mean he thinks Tyson is grossly overstating Tommy’s talents, and that their December 18 bout will be much closer than he is making out. It’s a more restrained response than we’ve come to expect from Jake Paul, who has always been confident in his boxing abilities, even when going into fights as the underdog. That will of course be the case on December 18, but many believe that fighting a professional (and undefeated) boxer will be a step too far for the YouTuber. Some have even expressed concern for Paul while others, like KSI, believe his handling of big occasions makes him the favorite. We’re not far from finding out.
