In his short yet attractive boxing run, Jake Paul has pinned himself as one ultimate boxing sensation. He’s also engaged in several rivalries with fighters across boxing and the MMA vertical. That said, the YouTuber turned boxing star never fails to spare his opponents and always rolls out some fiery words to counter them.
Recently, he took a dig at his arch-nemesis, Dillon Danis, who’s been on his hit list for a long time. Speaking exclusively to Brian Custer, Paul evaluated his chances of competing with Danis and revealed where he’d actually fight his rival.
“I think it could happen, but again, it’s like he’s not a striker. So you know after I beat Tyron, it’s like wow he just knocked out a 5-time UFC champion who has knockout power. Now he’s going up against some Jiu-Jitsu guy who isn’t a striker like it’s a hard sell for that fight. I think I’m going to handle that one in the streets,” said Paul.

This is not the only time when Paul and Danis have exchanged some verbal blows with each other. In the past, too, they’ve gone all out against each other.
