Jake Paul was one of the loudest voices, who came out in support of Donald Trump yet again. The Republican nominee and possible 47th President survived a near-fatal attempt very recently. The longtime cruiserweight influencer-turned-boxer maintained the uprising it would have caused. The duo have had quite an aspiration for each other for some time. Now, he seems to have touted Paul’s best-kept secret due to their association.
Donald Trump is rebounding well from his assassination attempt while addressing a signature Republican campaign rally near Butler, Pennsylvania. Despite bookending his last RNC speech about de-emphasizing attacks on the current administration, he maintains his usual zeal against usual rally topics like inflation and immigration. He’s more of a straight shooter now in his post-shooting stump ways. He also spilled the beans on Paul recently.
Jake Paul... you don't wanna fight this guy... He's got a big fight coming with Mike Tyson. But he's glad he didn't fight Mike when Mike was 19. He told me that today...But he's a fantastic guy. A very talented guy in a lot of ways.Donald Trump at the Bitcoin Conference ’24, Nashville, Tennessee/? Credit: @HappyPunch on X
The seventy-plus maverick is opening up more and more to media availability rounds. During his keynote speech at the biggest and brightest of cryptocurrency virtuosos at the Bitcoin Conference 2024, Nashville, Tennessee, he touched root on ‘The Problem Child.’ During the ‘Impaulsive’ Podcast, Jake Paul wanted to one-up his brother Logan to purchase the hat Trump wore in the shootout. Additionally, he threw his endorsement behind him to the fullest extent.
A combat sports enthusiast, Trump thanked ‘Problem Child’ for the support. He is off of a recent sixth-round knockout victory over Mike Perry on the 20th of July fight. The date was earmarked for Mike Tyson, who he will face on November 15th at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, TX. Trump says he told him he’s glad not to have faced a prime ‘Iron’ Mike. He does laud Paul and his skills, though. It’s something he has done many times now.

The Trump tidbit ‘book of revelations’ that Jake Paul might be somewhat hinged in facing Tyson is nothing new. This lines up with his acknowledging the dangers of ‘Iron.’ During their lie-detector debacle, he did admit he’d be a fool not to have some concerns over it. Perhaps nothing underscores the ginormous age difference between them; Paul (now 10-1, 7 KOs), however, thinks he can get it done.

More so, he wants to respect the fact that Tyson asked the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulations to sanction it as a pro bout. Mike Tyson himself has also lauded the fact that Paul doesn’t duck contenders and challenges and is taking this leap forward despite the hindrances. During ‘The Donald Trump Interview ‘- Imapaulsive EP. 418, the 78-year-old namesake guest shared similar sentiments.
Look, Mike was fantastic, but, you know, Mike's a little older now, and you guys can fight...You guys can really fight, legitimately fight..[smiles] You are both good.Donald Trump to Logan Paul during ‘Impaulsive’ Podcast (@impaulsive)l EP. 418
There are those more streamlined legacy boxers who do not care for Paul and his culture of influencer crossover boxing. But old crops like Turmp (and even Tyson) have been through it all and know how much commission billing matters in this modern fractured era of boxing. The 27-year-old offers a sweet science affair and a sweeter payout. Alongside, he goes to war with even MMA guys who can very well play a standup game and outbox.
The older brother, a WWE US Champ in his first reign, also has two professional boxing stints under his name. Logan Paul has been a godsend to storyline-driven grinds like WWE. Trump, who is associated with both, praises what they have brought to combat sports circles.
