“You’re Not Fighting Boxers”- American Analyst Stephen A. Smith Rips Jake Paul for ‘Lying’

YouTuber turned boxer Jake Paul is presently living on cloud nine. Currently, the 24-year-old is undefeated in his boxing career and is coming off a win against MMA legend Tyron Woodley. Notably, Paul knocked Woodley into the sixth round of their bout with a powerful right hook. However, popular sports analyst Stephen A. Smith thinks Paul is deceiving everyone by taking on people who have no prior boxing experience.

Stephen A. Smith blasted Paul on his show. “Jake Paul can’t get away with lying anymore. He has been training with boxers and professional boxing trainers for more than four years, from my understanding,” He said.

Smith also mentioned that he fought with a basketball player, then Ben Askren, who is not Boxer but a wrestler. Besides, Smith also mentioned that Woodley had the power to knock Jake Paul out, but couldn’t do it as he was a wrestler too.

“You’re not fighting boxers. And somewhere along the way, people gotta stop walking around, laughing and acting like it’s alright for you to be beating up on cats[his opponents] that don’t box, while you’re calling yourself a boxer,” Smith continued.

Jake Paul is undefeated in his boxing career.

Currently, Jake Paul has registered five wins and zero losses in his boxing career. The YouTuber started his career with a win over fellow YouTuber Ali Eson Gib. Whom he defeated through a KO back in 2020.

Later, the YouTuber took on former NBA player Nate Robinson. Robinson also met the same fate against the Youtuber.
