Could Jake Paul fight for a world title in the near future?. On June 28th, Paul is set to face off against former boxing champ Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. in Anaheim, California.
Paul believes a fight with Chavez Jr. is a big step up in competition.
“This fight has been brewing for quite some time now. The fans have wanted to see this, and I want to continue to elevate and raise the level of my opponents. This is a former world champion, and he has an amazing resume following in his dad’s footsteps […]. This guy is a great fighter, and I want to test myself against the best in the world.”
During a media scrum, Paul revealed that he’s currently in discussion to fight cruiserweight champion Badou Jack if he beats Chavez Jr.
“I’m super interested, I had Nakisa (Bidarian) contact his team behind the scenes, so those discussions are happening.”
