Jake Paul brings back ‘Gotcha Hat’

A couple of days ago, Jake Paul and Ryan Bourland came face to face with each other for the first time since finalizing a fight deal. And, of course, the opponents got into a verbal battle!

He further added, “When you said you were going to take me into deep waters, do you realize that rhinos are land animals?” However, the highlight came when the presser was wrapping up. Paul pulled his old ‘Gotha Hat’ mover on Bourland as Paul snatched his hat. Previously, Paul had done the same thing to Floyd Mayweather, which led to a brawl later.
