Jake Paul warned about fighting UFC star as \u201ccrazy\u201d boxing KO video surfaces YouTube: Jake PaulJake Paul has been warned about calling out UFC star Alex \u2018Poatan\u2019 Periera after \u201ccrazy\u201d footage of his amateur boxing days surfaced online. Over the years, Jake Paul hasn\u2019t shied away from calling out some of the biggest names in the fight game. The YouTuber-turned-boxer has gone after Conor McGregor on numerous occasions, as well as Jorge Masvidal. After defeating \u2018Platinum\u2019 Mike Perry back in July, the \u2018Problem Child\u2019 upped the stakes again. He decided to call out current UFC light heavyweight champion Alex \u2018Poatan\u2019 Periera for a fight. The Brazilian didn\u2019t exactly shut it down, either. Since then, Jake has been repeatedly warned about trying to fight \u2018Poatan\u2019 because of how dangerous he is. Well, that has now continued after footage of Alex in boxing matches appeared online. In the short clips, Poatan displays some pretty explosive power, knocking down a handful of opponents and constantly backing them up against the ropes. \u201cThe knock out was crazy,\u201d one viewer noted. \u201cThis is exactly why Jake Paul calling out Alex Pereira is actually even worse than the Mike Tyson fight,\u201d another viewer said. \u201cHe KOs Jake Paul in two rounds,\u201d another added. \u201cJake Paul doesn\u2019t want any of that smoke. He stands no chance,\u201d commented another viewer. \u201cAnd Jake thinks he can beat him,\u201d another said, attaching a handful of laughing emojis. As noted, the social media star hasn\u2019t been backed down from anyone. He\u2019s fighting \u2018Iron\u2019 Mike Tyson in November and, despite being the favorite, Jake knows that the heavyweight legend still carries serious power. One hurdle getting in the way of a potential fight with \u2018Poatan\u2019 is the fact that the Brazilian is still contracted to the UFC. Plus, UFC boss Dana White hasn\u2019t shown a willingness to work with Jake. In fact, they\u2019ve had plenty of beef at times. So, anyone worried about him mixing it up with Pereira shouldn\u2019t have any immediate concerns.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
