Speaking about his upcoming opponent, Andre August, a three-time Golden Glove champion with more experience and knockouts, Paul acknowledged the tough challenge ahead. Despite recognizing August’s strengths, Paul believes in his own skills, asserting that he is more skilled, sharper, and will outbox his opponent.
Jake Paul, in a matter of minutes at a press conference, contradicted his initial respect for opponent Andre August and quickly transitioned to insulting him. “I doubt he’s even going to land a punch, that’s really what it is. Sloppy feet, all that. I’m going to just dust him up real quick and you’re going to see who the better boxer is.”
