He said, “Maybe I’ll go pull out these guys you know, guys who think they could fight, they could box one of these internet guys, and beat the sh*t out of them.”

It was a general statement from ‘The Nigerian Nightmare’ which indicated the YouTubers who took part in the professional match.

Subsequently, Paul accepted the challenge from Usman, for which he tweeted on his account.

After that incident, Paul didn’t stop and kept mocking Usman on the internet. Well, this gave a rise to the beef between them.

Jake Paul is eagerly looking to fight Usman in the octagon, but it is only possible if Abdelaziz takes up the challenge.
