Heavyweight world champion Daniel Dubois recently made headlines by calling out YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul. This came after Jake Paul’s victory over Mike Tyson in a match that took place at AT&T Stadium in Dallas, Texas.
Daniel Dubois, who claimed the IBF heavyweight belt after defeating Anthony Joshua in a spectacular match at Wembley, is now looking for his next opponent. With no one locked in for his first title defense, Dubois took to social media to challenge Jake Paul.
In his message to Jake Paul, Dubois stated, “Hi Jake, good business on the weekend but how would you feel fighting for the legitimate heavyweight championship of the world this is Daniel Dubois calling you out. Let’s get it on.”
Jake Paul responded by highlighting his experience in boxing, mentioning that he has been boxing for 12 years with over 100 fights between amateur and professional levels. He also joked about Dubois having a few thousand fans, unlike the light heavyweight world champion Artur Beterbiev who also expressed interest in fighting Paul.
Artur Beterbiev, who recently became the undisputed champion after defeating Dmitry Bivol, also took to social media to challenge Jake Paul. Beterbiev mentioned that after four years, it’s time for serious challenges and questioned Paul about his acceptance or rejection of the challenge.
The call-outs from both Daniel Dubois and Artur Beterbiev have stirred up excitement in the boxing world, with fans eager to see if Jake Paul will accept the challenge and step into the ring with either of these heavyweight champions. It remains to be seen how Jake Paul will respond to these challenges and whether he will continue to take on professional boxers in the future.
As the boxing world eagerly awaits Jake Paul’s next move, one thing is for sure – these call-outs have added an extra layer of anticipation and drama to the sport. Fans will be keeping a close eye on social media to see if Jake Paul accepts the challenge and prepares for another high-profile fight in the near future.
