Despite Agreeing to Floyd Mayweather’s Terms, Jake Paul Was Forced to Exit Dubai Arena

A vituperative outburst any day is tolerable to stealing the cap. Floyd Mayweather can attest since Jake Paul dared snatch his during a press conference in 2021.

Ever since, the two have been at loggerheads, never missing an opportunity to haul one over the coals.

In a video clip shared over the social media platform, Instagram, Jake, and his manager shared what happened in the background that led to the former’s recent absence from the Mayweather – Olatunji main card in Dubai.

Title holder in five weight divisions before he bid his final goodbye to boxing, Floyd Mayweather Jr., is active in the exhibition boxing landscape. Beginning in 2018, he has fought five exhibition bouts, out of which he won three. The remaining two were non-scorers.

When Jake Paul met Floyd Mayweather Jr.

It was the first non-scoring contest against Jake’s elder brother Logan that fanned the flames of animosity. During a press conference on May 6th, 2021, Jake Paul snatched Mayweather Jr.’s cap in the middle of a sharp-tongued exchange outside. The security detail and the camp followers quickly brought down a mini-brawl.

The much-hyped fight went on till the last round. Then, for most, it was apparent who had the upper hand. Later, Paul’s camp blamed Floyd and his team for not satisfactorily sharing the pay-per-view revenue.

On November 13th, Floyd’s latest exhibition against Deji culminated at the Coca-Cola arena in Dubai. However, before the fight got off the ground, it seems he had set an apparent demand for his appearance inside the ring – a complete ban on Jake Paul.

Won’t engage in combat until Jake departs

Now, as the video clip unfurls, one of the prerequisites Jake’s camp received was not to enter the ring. His manager confirmed, “…absolutely. Jake has nothing but respect for Floyd’s legacy, like he would never do that.”

The sine qua non had a few more strings attached; under the circumstances, Jake Paul shall not use a language depreciative of the former champion.

The crowning blow followed immediately. Jake and his team received information about Floyd’s condition.

Jake’s manager continued, “So Jake, for the benefit of the fans, rather making a stink gonna go home to his girlfriend Julia and have a great last night in Dubai.”

One can exercise his liberty to imagine what would happen if Jake had been present during the fight. The bangarang, after Tommy Fury failed the final weigh-in against Paul Bamba, and had to fight a substitute, Rolly Lambert, is still fresh in fans’ memories. However, Jake Paul was audacious enough to pick on both the father-son duo this time.

Run in with the flamboyant Andrew Tate thankfully passed on after a few snide exchanges.

To all appearances, Jake Paul is remarkably living up to his nickname, The Problem Child. Millions of fans keenly follow the attention-grabbing sneering and disdain. He can lash out his tongue on the back of fast punches. Whether this lethal combination is as effective against a boxer matching him in toto, time will tell.
