Jake Paul claims \u201cscared\u201d Floyd Mayweather is ducking boxing fight with him YouTube: Jake Paul\/ShowTime SportsJake Paul is eager to fight Floyd \u2018Money\u2019 Mayweather at some point, but he believes the boxing legend is \u201cscared\u201d to step into the ring with him. Since swapping the world of YouTube for boxing, Jake Paul has called out some of the biggest names in the fight game to step inside the ring with him for a fight. Despite the noticeable weight difference, \u2018The Problem Child\u2019 has gone after the likes of Saul \u2018Canelo\u2019 Alvarez, Conor McGregor, and Floyd \u2018Money\u2019 Mayweather \u2013 managing to rile up \u2018Money\u2019 by stealing his hat in the build-up to his fight with Jake\u2019s brother, Logan. With Logan still embroiled in legal drama with Floyd as he awaits payment for that fight, Jake has gotten involved with a few taunts of his own, and he even wants to fight the undefeated boxing icon at some point. Jake Paul wants to fight Floyd Mayweather On the first episode of his Betr show \u2013 BS with Jake Paul \u2013 the YouTuber-turned-boxer was interviewing boxing star Devin Haney and took a moment to call out Floyd after Haney praised the boxing legend. \u201cYeah, no, Floyd we respect you bro,\u201d Jake said. \u201cI took your hat but if you asked anyone in my camp, I always talk about how awesome you are and how legendary you are. \u201cSo, we respect Floyd on this side of things and I know you\u2019re scared to fight me in a real professional bout.\u201d Timestamp of 30:43 As noted, while a fight between Jake and Floyd would generate some serious interest, it is a massive mismatch when it comes to size. Jake has been fighting at Cruiserweight and was supposed to fight at Heavyweight against Hasim Rahman Jr, which is around 50lbs heavier than Floyd\u2019s size at Welterweight. If Jake was to drop significant weight and get closer to Floyd\u2019s size, the pair could engage in a catchweight fight but questions would no doubt remain. It seems unlikely that the pair will ever square off inside the ring, but it is something to keep an eye on.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
