Boxing legend Floyd Mayweather has weighed in on the possibility of a Jake Paul vs. Canelo Alvarez fight, and his reaction was nothing short of shocking. Speaking in a recent interview, Mayweather expressed serious concerns about Paul stepping into the ring with the Mexican boxing superstar.
“He might k*ll him!” Mayweather exclaimed when asked about the rumored matchup. “Canelo is on a whole different level. Jake Paul has improved, but stepping in with a guy like Canelo? That’s dangerous.”
Mayweather, who famously fought and defeated Canelo in 2013, knows firsthand the skill and power that the undisputed super middleweight champion possesses. He made it clear that while Paul has gained experience in the boxing world, he is still far from being ready to take on a fighter of Canelo’s caliber.
“Jake has done well for himself, he’s made a lot of money and proven he’s serious about boxing, but there’s levels to this,” Mayweather added. “Canelo has fought the best in the world for over a decade. This isn’t just another YouTuber fight.”
Jake Paul, who has built a controversial but successful boxing career by defeating former MMA fighters and social media personalities, has repeatedly expressed his desire to fight Canelo. However, many in the boxing community, including Mayweather, believe that such a matchup could end disastrously for the YouTuber-turned-boxer.
As speculation continues, fans are divided on whether this fight should even happen. While some see it as another major payday and spectacle, others, like Mayweather, view it as a serious mismatch that could be dangerous for Paul.
With Jake Paul continuing to call out big-name opponents and Canelo focused on cementing his legacy, the potential for this fight remains uncertain. However, if Mayweather’s reaction is anything to go by, Paul may want to think twice before stepping into the ring with one of the most feared fighters in the sport.
