After months of pushing, Jake Paul may have finally persuaded Canelo Alvarez to accept a fight.
Alvarez eems to have had a change of heart regarding a potential fight against Jake Paul.
‘The Problem Child’ has been making waves in boxing for several years, but his career rose to an all-new high during his fight with Mike Tyson. While the clash failed to deliver, it did garner much attention—so much so that it broke the records for the biggest gate in combat sports history outside of Las Vegas and the most viewed boxing event with more than 100 million total viewers.
Throughout his rise, Jake Paul has been making a case for why Canelo Alvarez should fight him, and he may now have his wish.
The legendary Mexican boxer has now welcomed a meeting with Paul in the ring, though it comes with a condition.
“[Would I fight Jake Paul?] When I’m done with boxing, why not?” Alvarez confirmed on the Full Send Podcast. “Maybe, maybe I’ll do it.”
“Yeah [when I’m done competing at the top]. I think it’s good because what happens is there are other people who never watch boxing or they don’t know anything about boxing.”
