Following the win, ‘The Problem Child’ had come across several greetings and a few feuds backstage. While the Paul brothers had interacted with several people by then, US comedian Dave Chappelle might have had the best chat with them.

Chapelle congratulated the 24-year-old for his win. Mike Majlak Vlogs posted the clip on social media where the comedian told the Paul brothers, “I gotta tell you, every time I see you guys. I don’t even know if you remember. You have been so incredibly kind.”

“Rumble, young man. Rumble, stay well.”

Although Paul is known for his loud mouth and uncanny statements, Chapelle recalls him to have had a familiar approach all the time. So, Paul’s brashy get-up might just be a business trick to generate more views that continue pressing his name amongst the other A-listers in the sport of boxing.

That said, he and his brother have been successful in making big moves. They have already become prize fighters and can continue riding the trend. While Logan Paul may stay relevant in exhibitions, Jake Paul wants to become a world champion pugilist. Hence., ‘The Problem Child’ can see a lot more in his combat career.

What’s next for Jake Paul?

After beating Ali Eson Gib, Nate Robinson, Ben Askren, and now Tyron Woodley, ‘The Problem Child’ can now compete against a professional boxer. Besides, a rematch against ‘The Chosen One’ is already being rumored. The WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury’s brother, Tommy Fury, has also shown interest in matching himself against the social media celebrity.

Adding to that, as Jake Paul has already started feuds with professional elites like Canelo Alvarez, Conor McGregor, Gervonta Davis, and others, there’s a lot before him at this point. Given his status, Paul might be able to cherry-pick his opponents since he is already the self-proclaimed “face of the fight game.”
