It would be a huge opportunity for Jake Paul’s career since he hasn’t fought men of Garcia’s caliber as of now. So, if he wants to prove his might, he must overcome the hurdle named Ryan Garcia. In a heated FaceTime conversation, Jake Paul said, “F**k you b***h. I will beat your a** and you know that.” Later Paul also talked about how Garcia is a lightweight while he competes in the cruiserweight division. At this time, Garcia stated that he’d jump weights to square up against ‘The Problem Child’.

Furthermore, Paul swore to emulate the liver punch delivered by Gervonta Davis on Garcia during their fight. He said, “Imma put you back on the canvas like Tank did.” After this, both of them took some personal jabs at each other and Garcia hung up. Furthermore, Jake Paul addressed Ryan Garcia’s callout in the post-match presser as well.
