YouTube sensation Jake Paul cannot seem to catch a break as his scheduled fight on August 6th has been canceled yet again. Paul was initially supposed to take on British boxer Tommy Fury, however, he pulled out from the fight after he was denied entry into the United States. Heavyweight boxer Hasim Rahman Jr. served as his replacement, but it was announced that he won’t be able to cut his weight down to the limit stated in the contract.

First Tommy Fumbled and now Hasim Rahman Crumbled. These boxers are the most difficult people to work with and continually lack professionalism and confidence to fight me.

Who can Jake Paul face next?
Although Paul is not in the best situation right now, the fight getting cancelled has opened a lot of possibilities for the Youtuber. Middleweight boxer Chris Eubank Jr. has already called out Paul for a fight and accused him of being a ‘clout chaser’. Moreover, there was also speculation of Paul taking on boxing legend Mike Tyson before the fight with Rahman was announced. Another possible option for him could be a fight with Tommy Fury.
