Jake Paul and Canelo Alvarez
Jake Paul faces the newly-released Tyron Woodley in his next fight
Jake Paul is busy preparing for his next boxing venture against Tyron Woodley. The YouTuber takes on the former UFC welterweight champion on the 28th of August, a fight that marks the pro-boxing debut of Woodley.
Paul is already 3-0 up in his boxing career. He made his debut against fellow YouTuber AnEsonGib, beating him with ease.
He then took on ex-basketballer Nate Robinson and knocked him out viciously in the second round of their fight.
In his third fight, Paul took on a combat sports athlete for the first time. It was grappling specialist Ben Askren. Paul took him out with a first-round knockout.
‘The Problem Child’ is all pumped up for his next fight, and looks to be more confident than ever.
In a recent interview with TMZ Sports, Jake Paul spoke about his ambitions of continuing to be the most disruptive boxer in the history of the sport.
He said:
“Look, I just want to continue to be the most disruptive boxer in the history of the sport. And, I think it’s taking it on a fight-by-fight basis and continuing to build these fights and make them even bigger, even bigger, take on more serious opponents.”
Paul then took his ambitions to the wildest stretch ever possible. He claimed that he would be fighting the legendary Canelo Alvarez somewhere down the line, for the WBC or WBO belt. That’s farfetched on Gargantuan levels!
Paul was quoted as saying:
“I think anything is possible. I think I could be fighting against Canelo Alvarez for the WBC or WBO championship belt.”
Well, Paul has taken up boxing seriously and he does have some slick skills and talent. He will have to take things one step at a time, and remain grounded.
