Yes, Jake Paul wants to continue to cover more than his limited boxing talent can give him, and consequently squeezing very little, so little, that it is only enough for the moment for a confrontation with a boxer in frank decline like Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., who at 39 years of age faces a last call against the YouTuber.
But the ‘Problem Child’ aims very high, dreaming of being a world champion and facing the cream of current boxing, a pretension that he has never hidden, and that he boasted when he was very close to Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez giving him the opportunity to fight with him, something that is now almost impossible given the commitments of the Mexican with the Riyadh Season.
Exhibition fight with ‘Tank’

Something that by the way does not matter at all, as long as there are those who lend themselves to it and it is accompanied by many millions of dollars.
