Mairis Briedis, the first Latvian boxer to hold a major world boxing title, has hit a new low. The three-time cruiserweight world champion got himself a tattoo for the sole purpose of calling out Jake Paul. Briedis uploaded a video on his Instagram page to let Paul and the world know that he has laid the gauntlet.

In the video, Briedis made his way to a tattoo studio with ‘The Problem Child’s song ‘Fresh Outta London’ playing in the background. He showed the fans a picture of Paul’s tattoo which said ‘Karma’ followed by a photo of his tattoo which reads, ‘Jake’s bad karma’.

“Today we make some crazy things. Let’s go and see what’s happening, Jake,” Briedis said in the video.

Briedis showed the process of getting the tattoo made in the rest of the video. As he showed off his brand new ink, he said, “Hey, Jake, I got something for you. Jake, now is your turn.”

Is Jake Paul fighting Mairis Briedis?

At the time of writing this article, Paul has not responded to Briedis’ challenge. As ‘The Latvian Punisher’ has proved to be a problem for experienced vets in the division, Paul should not be a problem for him. However, Paul is not fighting Briedis as he has his eyes set on making a debut in the MMA world.

Although Briedis is a formidable boxer, he will not be able to generate as much hype as some of the opponents Paul has lined up. Furthermore, it would behoove Jake Paul to fight other professional boxers first before trading blows with a world champion.
