The much-anticipated Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson showdown became the most-streamed sporting event of November. The legendary boxer and the rising star faced off at AT&T Stadium, where Paul emerged victorious against the 58-year-old icon. But while the fight stirred up plenty of controversies and left many fans disappointed, there’s a new twist. LiAngelo, LaMelo Ball‘s brother, is apparently ready to step into the ring with Jake Paul—if the price is right. The drama continues!

LiAngelo Ball hosted The WAE Show, which became the stage of discussion about the possibilities of who could take on Jake Paul in a fight. It was mostly Mike Tyson‘s $20 million that intrigued the Charlotte Hornets star’s brother. However, how preps does one need to go up against a pro boxer? Someone says two months and someone says a year. But LiAngelo says he needs six to eight months.

But, LaMelo Ball’s brother will fight only if the money is right. He said: “I would say six to eight. Ten if they’re being generous. For $20 million, I’m fighting in a month.”

This declaration has thrown fans into frenzies. Mixed reactions and a bold message for Jake Paul have now surfaced in the comment section of the post.

LaMelo Ball’s brother vs. Jake Paul idea causes a stir among the fans online

Fans are taking a bold stance, suggesting that LiAngelo Ball could break Jake Paul‘s leg if the two face off. “Liangelo might break his legs in the match,” they boldly claimed. While LaMelo Ball’s brother lacks experience in boxing, supporters believe he can take on Paul. Moreover, LiAngelo’s height could be an advantage in the fight. Who knows?

Another fan advised Ball and also reminded everyone: “Given the Ball brother’s injury history, I don’t think this is is a right idea — even if money is right 😭” Well, they’re not wrong though. LiAngelo Ball has suffered from persistent ankle sprains and injuries during his time in the NBA Summer League. Meanwhile, LaMelo Ball too has suffered from ankle woes. On the other hand, Lonzo Ball of the Chicago Bulls is currently sidelined with his right wrist issues.

Meanwhile, fans are roasting LiAngelo Ball for seemingly focusing on everything but basketball. “Dude doing everything but playing basketball.” While LaMelo Ball and Lonzo Ball have made it to the NBA, LiAngelo is yet to make his debut in the elite league. He is currently in the Mexican basketball league CIBACOPA.

Now fans are also calling out celebrities attempting or planning to face Jake Paul. They claim it’s less about the sport and more about the paycheck. They believe these fights are cleverly marketed spectacles designed to generate buzz and cash rather than true competitive matchups. The fans say: “Everyone just fighting Jake for the bag let’s be honest. It more of a marketing scheme than a fight.”

Some fans are confident Jake Paul would dominate the fight, with one even joking about betting their house on him. This highlights the skepticism around LiAngelo Ball’s chances in the ring, given Paul’s boxing experience.

“Lol now this is a fight im betting the house on Jake Paul.” However, it would be interesting to see how a basketball player would fight against a pro, don’t you think so?

But, another fan believes, LaMelo Ball’s brother’s condition would be like Mike Tyson’s if he faces Jake Paul. This meme-worthy comment reflects the absurdity some fans feel about the idea of LiAngelo taking on seasoned fighters like Jake Paul, let alone a boxing legend.
