Artur Beterbiev: A Force to Be Reckoned With
After his resounding unanimous decision win over Mike Tyson this past weekend, Jake Paul once again became the center of attention. Countless boxing icons are eager to silence 'The Problem Child' and seek revenge for Iron Mike. However, few would have anticipated that the undefeated light heavyweight king, Artur Beterbiev, would enter the fray as a potential opponent. In a respectful and genuine manner, Beterbiev wrote on his Instagram page in response to Jake Paul's teasing of a future showdown, stating, "What can you do in [the] ring against the current undisputed champion?" and adding that he is "always open to suggestions." A few hours later, Paul reacted on X, and like the rest of us, 'The Problem Child' was astonished at the possibility that the 21-0 champion would be interested in fighting him. He commented, "Just seen this… Top 5 pound for pound fighter in the world calling me out. Hahahahahhahah. 4 years in and I run this sport." While his claim of "running this sport" didn't sit well with boxing purists, it did draw Beterbiev's attention once more, who then reaffirmed his fight offer by saying, "After four years, it's time to have serious challenges. Didn't notice your acceptance or rejection… So what are we going to do?"Daniel Dubois: A Heavyweight Challenger on the Horizon
Artur Beterbiev isn't the only champion vying for a fight with Jake Paul. Heavyweight powerhouse Daniel Dubois is also teasing a showdown with 'The Problem Child.' Paul shared a screenshot of an alleged direct message from 'Dynamite Dubois,' which read, "Good business on the weekend but how would you feel about fighting for the legitimate heavyweight championship of the world. This is Daniel Dubois calling you out; let's get it on." Paul responded with an image of a ticket machine, telling Dubois to "get in line," and then re-shared the image to his own social media. He quipped, "Man been boxing for 12 years, has over 100 fights between amateur and pro and fought on my undercard…hahaha… But f*** it…I'm going to have Nakisa talk to Frankie Warren and get you in line for the throne. Unlike Artur, at least you have a few thousand fans."
