‘My Wife Thinks Jake Paul is a Creep’- Ben Askren Continues To Troll Jake Paul on Twitter
Follow Us
Jake Paul and his upcoming boxing match with Ben Askren still seems too bizarre to be true. Askren, who was challenging the likes of Georges St-Pierre two years ago, and is now retired from MMA and heading into the boxing ring.
Further, Jake Paul has started ramping up the insults to Askren by unfollowing everyone on his Instagram except Askren’s wife and Triller. Ben has taken it like the joke it seems to be, responding on Twitter with a video of him training.
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee, my wife thinks @jakepaul is so creepy!! April 17. @triller pic.twitter.com/pSNNvdasCv

Paul himself is a relatively amateur boxer, with his pro wins not coming against other boxers. However, Askren has the most combat sports experience. Even though Askren has used his wrestling to dominate in MMA, that doesn’t mean he never trained stand-up, on the off-chance he is made to use it in fights.

It seems everyone believes in Jake Paul now. While Askren is a hell of a fighter in MMA, he is arguably the worst boxer the MMA world could have sent. But if Ben Askren beats Paul, it will give us a swift end to the takeover of boxing by the Paul brothers.
Many may consider Askren losing to Paul a big skid mark on the skill-sets of MMA fighters. Askren’s biggest exposure to the mainstream is already negative because of the Jorge Masvidal KO. Adding another embarrassment like a loss to a YouTuber won’t look good for the fighter or the sport he represents.
