“As an Interviewer He Attempted to Disrespect”: Fans Jump In to Support Jake Paul for Blasting HBO Reporter with NSFW Remarks

Jake Paul, ‘The Problem Child’, is preparing well for his next fight against Tommy Fury in almost every aspect. He’s working hard physically and also trying to manage to get into as much promotion as he can, to bring a big audience for the event. Jake Paul recently went on an HBO show, Game Theory With Bomani Jones, where Bomani asked the Youtuber-turned-boxer about his plans if he loses the fight. Jake Paul didn’t take that question sportingly and was upset with the reporter for even asking that. 

In a recent tweet by Bleacher Report, there is a clip from the interview where Jake Paul went off on Bomani Jones, by saying he doesn’t even know who Bomani is. In the clip, Jake Paul and Bomani Jones can be seen having a heated conversation.

The video clip from the interview with Jake Paul

Bomani Jones asked Jake Paul what happens after the fight against Tommy Fury, and what are his future prospects. And then, as a follow-up, Jones asks Paul what would happen if he loses one of the fights.

Jake Paul responded that he does not understand that kind of mindset. He said that he does not train to lose and maybe the reporter has that mindset and maybe Bomani is projecting it onto him.

Bomani Jones immediately refused that he was not trying to project anything and then further tried to explain his question to Jake Paul. He said, “My question is, this is work because we’re all surprised that you keep winning these fights, right? But if somebody does beat you, how much interest stays in this when it stops being a surprise?”

Jake Paul then clearly got offended by the question again, “They won’t They won’t. Imma be honest bro, I don’t know who the f**k you are. My PR team set up this interview.”

Now, before every fight, for better promotion, the fighters need to go on several interviews and answer all kinds of questions. Some are good, while some go in a different direction altogether. Recently, Tommy Fury went on an interview with Piers Morgan, and the fans also had a lot to say about that interview.

Some fans came in favor of Jake Paul as they think it was not unpleasant of Bomani Jones to ask such a question to any boxer. And they come in support of Jake Paul saying what he said.

Fans’ reactions to the Jake Paul interview clip

A fan comes in full support of Jake Paul and claimed that it was a bit disrespectful for asking Paul, who is undefeated, such a question.

Another fan said that this clip sits well with the brand.

One of the fans said that it was obvious that Bomani got a negative response. If you will ask any boxer about the future after their loss they will give you a negative response.

One fan randomly commented about his opinion on a potential fight between Jake Paul and KSI.

Now not all the comments under the tweet were against Bomani Jones, else there were also some fans who were not siding with Jake Paul.

One fan said that just accepting that you do not know who the other person is, was not really a great insult.

Then another fan stated that Paul could have done some research about the man he is on a show with, and also wrote that he could have been more polite to the journalist.

The whole episode is going to come out this Friday on HBO. Well, it’s obvious the interview didn’t turn out to be as salty as this clip, but the clip definitely generated responses. What did you think about Jake Paul’s response to Bomani’s question? Let us know in the comment section.
