Jake Paul has expanded his footprint pretty well in the boxing vertical. Moreover, he ranks among the most debatable names in ‘Sweet Science’ who’s only been on a rise with his in-ring activities and outside-the-ring antics. Paul often looks to be the best trash talker, and he jibes at countless rivals.

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.

Last year, Jake Paul scored 3 pro-boxing wins, raising his stakes in the fight universe.

With that, Paul hinted at going even bigger in 2022, looking to fight even better pugilists.

Will Jake Paul confront Deji Olatunji in 2022?

Jake Paul has all the focus upon his boxing run, and this year he’s looking to square off pro-boxers. In between, he was also reported to take on Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., but there’s no news on the same until now.

Citing Paul’s fighting plans, Deji Olatunji doesn’t fit as his ideal opponent for this year.
