That said, he went after Deji Olatunji a few days back, and the latter recently addressed all that the Ohio native spoke about him.

Speaking to Behind The Gloves, he said, “‘He said, he called me a pu*e because obviously, I mean, unfortunately, I can’t grow the best beard.”

“And yeah, I guess he called me an idiot, but it’s true though because with Deli, he’s changed my whole mindset like my attitude. He’s instilled discipline into me. Before I never had that, I was just lazy. I never took it like serious, but now with Deli, as well as Calvin, it’s a different level.”

Not many know, but Deji Olatunji and Jake Paul fought each other on KSI vs Logan Paul‘s first fight. This fight didn’t go in ‘The Problem Child’s professional run, but Olatunji seems eager to run it back.
