Jake Paul has been accused of several illegal doings since he entered into the sport of boxing. Umpteen people, including NBA star ‘Big Shaq’, tagged his latest fight against Tyron Woodley as rigged. A reporter came across Jake Paul’s girlfriend Julia Rose with a similar accusation, which Rose didn’t like one bit.
Besides, UFC President Dana White has constantly accused ‘The Problem Child’ of using steroids. The banter which began on social media took such a toll that Jake Paul agreed to enter the UFC cage with minimum pay. But he put certain conditions, like increasing fighter’s pay and testing all the UFC fighters medically. Well, White ignored it, getting busy with his back-to-back event plans for 2022.

Jake Paul wrote, “If 1942 is steroids then yes I’m guilty.”
