Jake Paul and FaZe Banks in negotiations to officially fight in 2019 Jake Paul, FaZe Banks – InstagramControversial YouTuber Jake Paul has officially decided on his next opponent in the boxing ring \u2013 and they\u2019re one of the FaZe Clan\u2019s most popular personalities. Paul addressed his upcoming bout in the KSI vs Logan Paul rematch during a vlog on December 8, where he traveled to the Wilder vs Fury fight under an exclusive invitation (thus explaining his widely-speculated appearance there). Upon his drive home after the fight\u2019s conclusion (which ended in a disappointing draw \u2013 not unlike KSI and Logan Paul\u2019s first match), Paul admitted that he had been in talks with FaZe content creator Ricky Banks in regards to an upcoming fight preceding the 2019 rematch. \u201cI know this is gonna sound crazy, but I have been texting back and forth with FaZe Banks,\u201d Paul stated. \u201cI want to fight him. \u2026So, FaZe Banks, bro, I\u2019m publically calling you out now. Are you gonna back down, bro?\u201d Paul even admitted that he feels a fight with Banks could be bigger than the KSI vs Logan Paul fight from August 2018 \u2013 and may even dwarf any grudge match in history, ever. https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=9pQILRT42Cg Paul\u2019s long and dramatic history with Banks centers around his ex-girlfriend, YouTuber Alissa Violet, who began dating Banks after hooking up with Jake\u2019s older brother, Logan Paul (out of apparent revenge for Jake\u2019s own hookups during their on-again, off-again relationship). The two likewise feuded after Paul accused Banks of assaulting his assistant, Meg Zelly, in a nightclub in summer of 2017, which Banks has vehemently denied. Since then, Banks and Paul have exchanged multiple verbal blows via social media \u2013 and now, it looks like things have finally come to a head. Banks has since responded to Paul\u2019s challenge with a poll, asking users to like his status if they truly want to see him throw down with the YouTube star. Do I fight @jakepaul or is it dead beef? Like if you wana see it \u2014 FaZe Banks (@Banks) December 9, 2018<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
