Jake Paul started his career as a YouTuber and gained immense popularity in the platform. But upon the explosion of crossover boxing in recent years, Paul has become probably the biggest name in this newfound space, having fought big names like Anderson Silva, Tyron Woodley, Nate Diaz, and more.
‘The Problem Child’ has now shifted completely from an influencer to a boxer and aims to achieve serious lengths of success in the sport, and has undoubtedly become far superior in skills over the years. He should not be taken lightly by any opponent.
Jake Paul picks Devin Haney over Gervonta Davis
Being a significant contributor to the sport of boxing at present, Jake Paul does not hold back on his opinions on other fights or fighters and goes public with some pretty big statements at times, stirring up drama with other names, which never fails to attract eyeballs towards him.
There has been a huge feud going on in boxing at present with the upcoming clash between Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney on April 20th. In their recent press conference, Garcia took over the headlines by leaking years old footage of a young Haney getting dominated by Gervonta Davis in a sparring match inside Floyd Mayweather’s gym.
This footage did slight harm to Haney’s profile, although he is very young in the video. However, Paul recently took to the internet to make a bold claim, stating that if Haney and Davis squared down again in a fair fight, Haney would get the upper hand. This did rounds on social media with tons of reactions from the public, with a major portion actually agreeing with Paul’s stance.
Jake Paul aims KO victory in next bout
We are only a day away from the star studded boxing showdown in Puerto Rico, which will feature Amanda Serrano taking on Nina Meinke in the main event, and Jake Paul clashing against a pro boxer and a former Golden Gloves champion, Ryan Bourland.
Jake has already faced a pro boxer in Tommy Fury before, where he lost a close decision. This is his second opportunity to showcase his boxing arsenal that he has built over such a long period of time, and shut down the haters. He is filled with confidence as he has openly predicted a knockout win over his opponent tomorrow night.
If Jake Paul truly comes out on top and makes his daring prediction come to life, there will be no denying him anymore. Critics round the world would have to give ‘The Problem Child’ his dues and finally accept him as a legitimate boxer, and not an influencer.
