Jake Paul‘s latest claims have made boxing fans both confused and doubtful. Paul is getting ready to participate in the biggest boxing match of his professional career. The 27-year-old is scheduled to fight Mike Tyson on July 20. Ahead of the fight, Paul might be a little overconfident about his Boxing prowess.
During the pre-fight press conference, Jake Paul claimed to have more power than Tyson. Paul revealed that he’s definitely concerned about fighting the legendary boxer but wants to overcome the fear.
Everyone else is underestimating me, and I believe that I hit harder. I know it’s gonna be tough, I know I’m gonna have to fight through adversity, I know I might even go to the canvas. I’m scared, don’t get me wrong, but it’s not about the fear stopping me. It’s about going into it even though I am scared, and that’s what true bravery is.

Paul called out Mike Tyson way back and earlier this year the official announcement for the fight was made. However, it created a variety of mixed reactions from fight fans and experts. Many didn’t like the idea of a young Paul fighting Tyson who is in his 50s.
However, Tyson has taken the fight seriously and is already in good shape. The youngest-ever heavyweight champion is in no mood to play around. On the other side, Paul might be the one who is playing around with some hilarious jokes.
