Paul vs. Alvarez: A Fight Closer Than Ever?
Former video blogger turned pugilist Jake Paul is sizing up his odds for a future spar with Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez:
"The road I'm on, it's mapped straight for a clash with Canelo. Knock out these next few contenders, level up the competition, and bam – people will be buzzing about our fight. They'll say, 'Jake's gonna get schooled,'" he predicts with a grin.
But there's more in the ring corner of Jake's mind, akin to the heavyweight hype of Tyson Fury facing off with Francis Ngannou –a fight for the history books. "Canelo's thrown a jab of interest in a tangle with me, so maybe this fight's closer to the bell than it seems," Paul throws in.
Ring the bell for December 15: Jake's lacing up to face Andre August, who's not pulling punches with a record of 10-1-1, 5 KOs.
