The ghosts of the viral Will Smith-Chris Rock incident have shown no signs of going away. In fact, YouTuber turned boxer Jake Paul recently channeled his inner Will Smith while defending his dog.

Paul was a guest at an episode of the ‘Impaulsive‘ podcast hosted by his brother, Logan Paul. Moreover, the podcast was co-hosted by Mike Majlak and George Janko. In conversation, Paul was having a hilarious tirade about his hatred for the animal rights organization, PETA. However, he also added that he was completely against the idea of using animal fur.

Meanwhile, Majlak asked him about his stance on fur, saying, “Are you sure you don’t have a fur coat because I saw your dog come into the gym today? With its entire coat shaved off.”

In response, Paul joked that his dog suffered from alopecia. However, when Majlak proded further, he defended his dog by referencing Smith. He said, “Yo, don’t talk about my f*cking dog like that. Yo, I’m gonna slap you. Will Smith the f*ck.”

It is also worth noting that Paul’s dog does not actually have alopecia, and he was only joking about the same.

What was the incident that Jake Paul was referencing?

Jake Paul was referencing the now infamous incident that took place at the 94th Academy Awards on March 27, 2022. Comedian Chris Rock was performing a comedic monologue which he was reading from a teleprompter.

Meanwhile, Smith and his wife were present in the audience. Incidentally, Jada Pinkett Smith was also sporting a shaved head. Notably, Smith shaved her head following her struggle with alopecia. As a part of his act, Rock told her, ” Jada, I love you. G.I. Jane 2, can’t wait to see it, alright?”
