Jake Paul explains why he doesn\u2019t think Floyd Mayweather fight will happen YouTube: Jake Paul, REVOLTAlthough Jake Paul is currently gearing up for his August 29 bout with Tyron Woodley, his beef with Floyd Mayweather is still fresh in everyone\u2019s minds \u2014 but the \u2018Problem Child\u2019 isn\u2019t sure that a bout with the 50-0 champ will actually happen. YouTube star-turned-pro boxer Jake Paul snatched headlines after stealing the spotlight at the Logan Paul vs Floyd Mayeather press conference in May. Once the interviews were over, the youngest Paul brother approached Mayweather to talk some trash \u2014 and ended up stealing his hat, resulting in a massive brawl. The fiasco went viral, prompting speculation that, after taking on Logan, Mayweather would seek out Jake, next\u2026 but the champ had a very specific condition, should the two ever touch gloves. “”Got your hat!”” Floyd Mayweather & Jake Paul got into a scuffle at the #MayweatherPaul press conference \ud83e\udd2fpic.twitter.com\/uFEueh6FWk \u2014 Dexerto (@Dexerto) May 6, 2021 \u201cJake Paul talked about me and him fighting in a real fight,\u201d he said in a June interview with Rob Moore. \u201cIf it\u2019s a real fight, then I\u2019ll go down to my real fighting weight class, which is 147 pounds or 154 pounds. If Jake Paul can come down to 154 pounds, then we can see his skills.\u201d (Topic begins at 2:24) It\u2019s because of this statement that Jake Paul isn\u2019t too certain he\u2019ll ever meet Mayweather in the ring, as told during an interview after his press conference with MMA champ Tyron Woodley on July 13. \u201cI don\u2019t think it\u2019ll happen,\u201d Jake admitted. \u201cHe wants me to cut down to 147 lbs, and then he\u2019ll fight me. So, before he fought my brother, we were \u2018fake fighters.\u2019 And now, he will only fight Jake Paul if I cut to 147 lbs, which is physically impossible for me to cut that much.\u201d (Topic begins at 2:44) Unfortunately for fans, it doesn\u2019t look like these two will ever face off \u2014 \u201cnot if he doesn\u2019t want to fight me at a reasonable weight,\u201d according to Jake. For now, it looks like this potential bout will remain a \u201cwhat-if\u201d for boxing fans the world over. Paul is set to face off with Tyron Woodley on August 29, marking his fourth professional bout in his boxing career.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
