The thrilling boxing battle between Jake Paul and Ben Askren is just a few days away. The pair have constantly mocked each other through their social handles, interviews, podcasts, and more. But the only vital thing left between the duo is getting inside the squared circle to face each other.
But it seems the ‘Problem Child’ will continue his war on words on his foe, Askren, until they actually get inside the ring.
Recently, the former UFC welterweight was on Logan Paul‘s podcast, Impaulsive. Here, the ‘Maverick’ played a video of his younger brother, Jake Paul, issuing a fiery warning to Askren and his family.

“Ben, what sup, you ugly mother****er.” asserted the ‘Problem Child’.
“You think this is a fun payday, and you think this is a way to get cloud, and yeah, you might be right, but I promise April 17th will be the worst day of your f**kin life.
“Ben Askren‘s kids, wife, please don’t watch this because your dad would be bloodied unconscious on the f**king canvas,”
Paul even disclosed that he asked Nate Robinson’s kids back in November 2020 to not watch their father’s boxing bout against him. True to his word, Paul knocked Robinson out cold in just the second round of the fight.
Can Jake Paul really batter Ben Askren?
Jake Paul will definitely have a certain edge over ‘Funky’ in this fight. This is because Paul has already put himself in a full-fledged boxing situation.

On the other side, Askren has been an elite grappler in his entire MMA career, and he barely relied on his standup game to beat his opponents.

Yet, he is a veteran in the combat sports world, and underestimating him might cause cosmic problems for the ‘Problem Child’.
That said, both the fighters bring in a certain amount of skill sets in this bout. And it’ll be exciting to see who among the two can overpower each other and add a sublime ‘W’ to their name.
