BOXING fans all said the same thing after getting wind of Jake Paul’s latest outrageous claim.
Like many fight fans around the world, The Problem Child was tuned into Canelo Alvarez’s third defence of his super-middleweight titles against Jermell Charlo last Sunday morning.
The face of boxing dominated and dropped his middleweight counterpart on his way to earning a unanimous decision victory.
YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul, however, was far from impressed by the Mexican’s display and claimed he’d have difficulty dealing with his power if they ever fought.
He said: “Yeah Charlo is not really giving him anything, not really giving him that power.
“Yeah, wait till Canelo gets my power, you know? Just wait, brother.”

Another said: “Jake is delusional AF.”
And another said: “Gotta be kidding, right?”
One remarked: “Jake needs to chill.”

Another chimed in: “Bros gonna wait until Canelo hits 60.”
Paul has been publicly campaigning for a showdown with boxing’s former pound-for-pound king for the best part of two years.
Four-weight champion Canelo recently revealed he doesn’t respect the former Disney actor as a fighter.
But he’s not opposed to sharing the ring with him, telling The Nelk Boys: “I think it’s good because other people who never watch boxing, they don’t know anything about boxing.
“They want to watch Jake Paul because he brings fans from other worlds, not boxing fans.
“That’s good because everybody enjoys it. What they do, I think they do for business, and you need to respect that.”
Paul, 26, hasn’t set foot inside the ring since his August showdown with UFC legend Nate Diaz, whom he defeated via unanimous decision.
