In one of the skits, the SNL cast hosts a parody of the hit talk show hosted by Ellen DeGeneres, renaming it Mellen. They introduce the host as Mellen, the male Ellen played by Jason Sudeikis. In one segment of this parody, they introduce the guest as “The Man, the Myth, the Myth, Jake Paul”. Pete Davidson plays Jake ‘The Problem Child’ Paul, with a blonde wig and tattoos to match.
Mellen then asks, “So Jake, you wanna announce your next fight?” to which ‘Paul’ replies saying, “Actually yeah I do. Yo Muhammad Ali, I’m coming for you. In the ring, in the streets,” Mellen interrupts him to remind him that Ali is no more. ‘Paul’ then continues, “In the graveyard! You can’t hide from me forever Ali.”

Jake Paul and Pete Davidson – Where the beef started
Before Jake Paul fought Ben Askren, SNL comedian Pete Davidson met Paul in his dressing room and interviewed him. Davidson first calls Askren a tool and tells Jake he’s excited to see him knock Askren out. he then goes to Ben Askren’s locker room and talks to Askren about how Paul is a bad influence and why he doesn’t like him.
This led many fans to call Davidson two-faced. Following that, Davidson also berated Paul while he was commentating during the fight. Davidson called Paul, “a piece of s***”. Davidson also sniped that Paul and Askren “both suck, but at least somebody’s gonna get hurt”. Paul took offense to these comments and later went on his brothers’ podcast and asked for Davidson to be banned from commentary during boxing fights.
