Jake Paul entered the combat scene two years ago when several other social media stars were equally embracing the sport of boxing. However, ‘The Problem Child’ stood out amongst all for his constant progress, knocking out ex-MMA world champions on his rise to the top. Today, Paul boasts of an active record of 5-0 and he is seemingly heading towards potential appearances against pro-boxers.

Well, the trend actively began when Jake Paul took on Ali Eson Gib, a social media star in January 2020. After scoring a first-round KO, Paul went on a tear, which is still intact. However, he hasn’t moved on from his hatred towards KSI, the social media celebrity who beat his brother Logan Paul back in 2019. Ideally, Logan Paul and KSI had paved the path for other Internet celebrities to enter the boxing chain.

That said, Jake Paul has surpassed them all under legitimate parameters. But he is still keen on battling with KSI. Although Logan Paul and KSI have resolved the differences and are business partners now, Jake Paul doesn’t seem to have found any love for the Brit YouTuber.

In his latest tweet, Jake Paul posted a picture of him against Ali Eson Gib, and wrote, “2 years ago today I made my pro debut and dropped this little guy…KSI been running since.”

Well, Paul’s long list of call-outs includes the P4P king Canelo Alvarez, and UFC stars like Conor McGregor, Nate Diaz, Jorge Masvidal, and others.

While KSI also falls in that loop, it’s pretty evident, The Problem Child’s combat radar expands to a great extent. However, KSI doesn’t seem interested in squashing the beef in-ring as he shares the mutual hatred with ‘The Problem Child’.

The rivalry between Jake Paul and KSI is epic

KSI and Logan Paul have joined forces to launch a sports drink named ‘Prime Hydration’. The former opponent is now aligned to do business together, developing their relationship stronger. A few weeks back, KSI also appeared in Logan Paul’s Impaulsive Podcast as a guest. He shed views on several things over there. But couldn’t help himself from bashing Jake Paul.

A post shared by KSI (@ksi)

KSI said, “I’m sorry, Logan, but I think he’s a c**t. Obviously, he’s like smashed it, like he’s killed it like you know, with what he’s done. Yeah, fair f**ing play, like it’s pretty good. The way he knocked out Woodley, stupid. And people are saying it’s fake, it’s not fake. Like he cleaned him out, and it was like a great shot but, I don’t know, for me, I just can’t in my heart, be like oh I like him now.”
