Jake Paul Sets Sights on Canelo Alvarez After Defeating Mike Tyson
Jake Paul has set his sights on a high-stakes boxing match against Canelo Alvarez following his recent victory over Mike Tyson. The fight took place at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, where Paul defeated the legendary boxer by unanimous decision, setting the stage for what he hopes will be a future clash with the four-weight world champion.
In the aftermath of his fight with Tyson, Paul expressed his ambition to face Alvarez, stating, “This moment will prove I’m the face of boxing, the largest attraction,” emphasising that a bout with Alvarez for the cruiserweight championship would be significant in the sport. He noted that Alvarez, who holds an impressive professional record of 62 wins, 2 losses, and 2 draws, may be interested in the fight as he seeks further financial opportunities in his career.
Paul, who now boasts a professional record of 11-1, believes that defeating Alvarez could validate his status in boxing and lead to what he termed “the biggest upset in the history of boxing.” He cautiously acknowledged the challenges, admitting, “I might get my a** beat… it’s gonna be hard as f**k.”
Despite Paul’s persistence in calling out Alvarez, the Mexican champion has expressed mixed feelings about facing the YouTuber-turned-boxer. Previous comments from Alvarez suggested that he viewed the Tyson-Paul match more as a spectacle than a serious competitive fight, which he finds concerning.
As Paul continues to navigate his boxing career, which has been marked by a blend of entertainment and combat sports, he remains focused on challenging more established fighters, with Alvarez at the top of his list. Meanwhile, Alvarez has his sights on different opportunities, including a potential crossover fight with MMA star Conor McGregor.
With Paul’s fight against Tyson generating significant attention and revenue, the prospect of a showdown between him and Alvarez could capture the boxing world’s interest in the coming year. However, the outcome of Paul’s recent match will likely impact Alvarez’s willingness to engage in a bout against him.
