Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. Offered Fight with Jake Paul

Former world champion, 38-year-old Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. (54-6-1, 34 KOs), revealed that he has been approached with an offer to fight popular influencer and boxer Jake Paul (11-1, 7 KOs).

This is one of the options we are considering. Let’s see. I have a meeting this week.

I would be interested in fighting a champion, but a fight with Jake Paul, due to his popularity and media attention, would give me the chance to compete with others. I didn’t seek this fight, but the offer came. Nothing is concrete yet, but we’ll see what happens next,” said Chavez Jr.

In July, Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. defeated former UFC fighter Uriah Hall (1-1, 0 KOs) via unanimous decision. On November 15, Jake Paul scored a unanimous decision victory over Mike Tyson (50-7, 44 KOs).
