Rival KSI Responds to Jake Paul’s $30 Million Dig

American Youtuber turned boxer Jake Paul is steadily establishing a name for himself in the boxing world. He started boxing in just exhibition fights first, but then he turned professional and has been undefeated in 5 fights till now. He always stays in the news due to his controversial remarks. He recently commented on his British rival KSI, to which the latter replied in a pretty direct way. 

Paul stated on the DAZN boxing show, “I don’t think he ever fights me. Why would he sign up for that risk? He knows what would happen… I wouldn’t even have to train to fight KSI. I could make $20/30 million, show up eating pizza and knock him out. Two rounds max.”
