He further added, “Tommy’s never really fought no one and he wants to fight Jake, who has shown to have knockout power and great high ring IQ. It would be a mistake for Tommy to face Jake. When you look at Tommy, Tommy’s a very stationary fighter. And you got Jake Paul who likes to use the ring, stick and move.”
Jake Paul and Anthony ‘PrettyBoy’ Taylor share a good camaraderie, and their Instagram posts justify it.

He continued, “For Tommy to land his punches he needs you stand and bang with him. Jake is not going to do that. Jake’s in and out, in and out. Tommy will struggle with Jake’s style. But I don’t see any worth in that fight. He doesn’t bring anything besides a UK fan base and social media presence. You have his dad and his brother to promote the fight, that’s all. Other than that, there’s no interest. Why would Jake fight him?”
