Jake Paul is one of the biggest topics in boxing right now. The undefeated YouTuber-turned-boxer is always in the headlines thanks to his trash-talk and eccentric behavior. And ‘The Problem Child’ has shown this again, this time taking aim at his arch-nemesis KSI.

Paul is all set to shock the world again as he prepares to face former UFC champion Tyron Woodley on August 28. This shows his desire to move up to bigger and better opposition. However, the American has not forgotten where it all started.

The 3-0 boxer spoke to ‘The Boxing Social’ on YouTube and made a bold claim about fellow YouTube boxer, KSI. He said, “A lot of UK fans and UK people hit me up all the time and they’re like, ‘Yo, we hate KSI, we don’t like him over here.’ So I don’t know.”

The Problem Child’ then thanked his fans in the UK and made a surprising admission. “I f**k with y’all, thank you for riding with me, I know I got a lot of UK fans who have to be silent sometimes because they don’t want to, you know, post up that they like me. But I know y’all are there,” said Paul.

Jake Paul and KSI: The rivalry

Although Paul has now made massive strides in the professional game and attracts a lot of attention, he is not the first YouTuber to enter the boxing ring. British YouTuber KSI fought fellow Brit Joe Weller in a white-collar boxing event in 2018. After winning, KSI called out both Paul brothers.

Logan Paul was the one who accepted the challenge and took on the Englishman. However, KSI was bad-mouthing both Paul brothers throughout. This added an extra spark to the event. Ultimately, the first fight was a draw, and in the second, KSI beat Logan Paul.

After the bout, Jake Paul cried. Since then, both KSI and Jake Paul have teased a potential fight between them. However, so far, it is highly unlikely that they will settle their beef.
