Jake Paul, the YouTube mogul and brother of Logan Paul, is expected to face basketballer Nate Robinson at the end of this month, which is his second fight in his professional boxing career. Having defeated fellow YouTuber AnEsonGib in his debut fight earlier this year, Jake surely means business, and has also revealed his plans of having a successful boxing career.
He has recently revealed that he wants to prove the world that he is a legit boxer with serious skill and explosive power. Speaking in an interview with Mayweather Boxing Channel, he also told about his plans to eventually fight UFC big names.
“I want to fight Conor McGregor eventually” – Jake Paul
Jake Paul was quoted as saying, “I want to prove to people that I’m a legitimate boxer, a legitimate professional boxer with skill and someone that people should be scared of. I have knockout power, I’m dangerous, and to me that’s super important and again, that’s just going to take multiple fights to prove that. I want to fight the biggest names in the sport, I want to take UFC fighters like Ben Askren, like Masvidal, whoever it is and bring them over to boxing, put them in a ring and go head-to-head with them. I want to fight Conor McGregor eventually. Whoever wants to get in the boxing ring with me, I want to be able to do it and beat them.”
One might wonder, why Funky Ben is there! That is because the Paul brothers had a social media spat once, with the retired fighter.
On a scale of 1 to 10, how much of a successful boxing career will Jake Paul have? Does he have what it takes to beat, or at least stand a chance against UFC fighters?
