Jake Paul Foolishly Calls Out One Of The Best Boxers To Ever Live

Jake Paul apparently wants to get seriously hurt inside a boxing ring.

The YouTuber turned boxer improved to 9-1 in his boxing career after beating Ryan Bourland over the weekend. However, very few people take his boxing seriously.

Paul likes to beat up on former MMA fighters, boxers who aren't legit and the one time he fought someone with an ounce of skill - Tommy Fury - he lost.

Yet, the record certainly looks nice on paper, and he now wants a shot at Canelo Alvarez. Following his win over Bourland, Jake Paul told Alvarez to "stop ducking" him.

You can watch his hilarious comment below, and let me know your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.

Jake Paul calls out Canelo Alvarez.

This is a perfect example of why people don't take Jake Paul seriously. Canelo Alvarez is one of the best boxers to ever live. 

He's 60-2-2 in his boxing career, and you know what Canelo Alvarez does? He fights other elite boxers. Alvarez isn't busy fighting guys a decade out of their MMA prime.

Canelo Alvarez would destroy Jake Paul in a boxing ring. It's hard to imagine the fight would even be sanctioned given how lopsided it would be.

There's a serious argument to be made it's simply too dangerous to be allowed to happen to put a guy like Jake Paul - a YouTuber - against Canelo Alvarez.

It would be a disaster waiting to happen. And yet, Jake Paul can't seem to help himself. Be careful what you wish for because you just might get it.

A fight between the two will almost certainly never happen, but that won't stop Jake Paul from chirping. It's simply comical at this point. Let me know what you think at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.
