The boxing lovers are well acquainted with Canelo Alvarez’s rift with the YouTuber turned boxer, Jake Paul. A few months back, their feud was at the peak, wherein Paul himself was on the front foot, taking digs at Canelo. However, the p4p star paid little attention to the young gun’s antics.

Despite that, ‘The Problem Child’ hasn’t stopped. Recently, Paul took it to his Twitter to mimic Canelo Alvarez. In this video, Paul enacted Alvarez’s fresh interview response where he was asked whether he would fight the YouTuber.
He said, “We don’t know, we don’t know. We never say no. So we don’t know. If he can try and keep fighting and learn and we’ll see in the future.”
“Oh, lot of things. I’m no one to say I don’t like it.”
