In an interview alongside Fight Hub TV, Alvarez was asked whether he saw Jake Paul’s recent fight against Ben Askren.

To which he responded, “I didn’t see that fight. I saw the highlights, though. But look, there’s sunshine for everyone. That’s bringing a different audience to boxing, and that’s good for boxing. There’s sunshine for everyone. People who normally weren’t watching boxing are now watching boxing, and it’s good.”

Although a majority of fighters don’t enjoy Jake Paul‘s run in boxing, there are still many top-notch pugilists like Canelo Alvarez who have expressed words of wisdom for the young gun.
