What has Jake Paul said?
Paul explained last week: “I am on a trajectory to become the biggest prizefighter in the world.
“I think that’s so special and people don’t get to follow that journey very often.
“As it stands, for the kids, I look like Mike Tyson.
“Your grandpa had Muhammad Ali and Mike Tyson, your dad had Floyd Mayweather, this generation has Jake Paul.
“If they wanna see a highlight reel knockout, they wanna be a part of the viral conversation – so far, that’s what I’ve delivered.”
