Fans reacted weirdly to the meme

After the meme became viral on the internet, fans mocked Jake Paul for not having the guts.

A user named sinforso said, Damn don’t hype him up like that. He ain’t ready for that smoke.”

Another user said, “Burger King cashier might actually be in the same division as him. I don’t get why nobody calls out the fact that he’s not fighting people the same size – give him Yoel Romero or Paulo Costa”

Vr6bomber said, “Is there even an MMA fighter that can be less competitive in any combat sport than the turd Ben Askren? Honest question, we all agree that CM Punk and Askren are on the lowest possible level correct? I mean I give Artem way more respect than Askren as a fighter and as a human.”

Another Reddit user said, “Problem is there are no amateur boxers with name value. Ideally, he would be fighting actual amateur boxers of the same size and similar time in the sport but that’s not gonna make him money. So basically finding willing competitors from adjacent sports with a name and personality is pretty much the only thing that will work for him. Which is why he’s calling out Mike Perry now lol. I kinda hope Dana lets Mike take that fight…”

Another user said, “The only big name I could think of him to fight would be Tommy Fury. They’ve both called each other out and they’re both boxers.”
