Over the past few months, Jake Paul has turned into a hot prospect in the boxing universe. The YouTuber turned boxer has fetched massive attention from casual as well as hardcore boxing fans with his antics. A few days back, he entered a cosmic brawl with Floyd Mayweather at the latter’s pre-fight press conference with Logan Paul.
More than the entire press conference, the backstage altercation between Jake Paul and ‘TBE’ struck everyone’s eye. In fact, it has become a talk of the town, accruing massive reactions from boxing hotshots.
Recently, Floyd Mayweather’s uncle, Jeff Mayweather, gave his take on the entire scenario and talked about Jake Paul.
In a chat with The Mayweather Channel, he said, “It seemed like to me Jake really wants to fight bad. Of course, it’s solely for the money. He had absolutely no f**king chance of winning. But I mean he’s, excuse me, he’s still outshining his brother. He stole the thunder from his brother at his own press conference,”
Jake Paul‘s elder brother and fellow YouTuber, Logan Paul, is all set to battle out ‘Pretty Boy’ on June 6. But Jeff Mayweather feels ‘The Problem Child’ turned the tide in his favor at the press conference and came out in the bigger picture compared to Logan Paul.
Just like ‘The Maverick’, Jake Paul is equally hungry to face Floyd Mayweather in the ring, thus put out a performance worth the hype.

Can Jake Paul really upset Floyd Mayweather in an exhibition bout?
The Ohio native is just 3 fights old in the boxing universe as of now. In his last fight, he battered the former MMA star, Ben Askren, and scored a vicious T/KO victory in round 1.
With that, he supremely up with his confidence, and the only fight he wants next is against boxing’s big cheese, Floyd Mayweather.
But competing and winning against ‘TBE’ won’t be that easy as the latter holds the experience of an entire world. Moreover, Paul is substantially a novice in the game, and fighting Mayweather at such an early stage in his career can derail the hype created around him.
Yet, it’ll be interesting to see if he really ends up touching gloves with Floyd Mayweather.
