A win over Mike Tyson moves Jake Paul closer to his goal of one day becoming an undisputed bpxing champion, but that day may be here much sooner than expected.
‘The Problem Child’ has managed to bring many new fans to the sport and will likely continue to do so as his career unfolds. The influencer is setting more ambitious targets with each outing, but the next potential opportunity could be his biggest yet.
After scoring a lackluster decision victory over Mike Tyson, Jake Paul pushed forward with his controversial rise in the sport.
As expected, Paul has painted a target on his own back for fellow boxers to set aim. One man that decided to throw his name into the hat to step into the squared circle with the Ohio native next is the undefeated Artur Beterbiev.
Noticing the audience Jake Paul manages to attract, Beterbiev has taken to social media to announce his interest in the fight.
The Russian is willing to give up not only a height and weight advantage to his opponent, but also put his undisputed light heavyweight titles on the line against the YouTuber-turned-boxer.
“Jake Paul what can you do in [the] ring against the current undisputed champion?” Beterbiev stated in a post directed at Paul.
“Just know that I’m always open to any suggestions.”

Artur Beterbiev is regarded as one of the best boxers in the world at present.
His last win came when he took the always-dangerous Dmitry Bivol’s undefeated streak.
Beterbiev is now ready to welcome any future challenges against the surging prospect.

Alongside his title aspirations, Paul has hinted at another major move in the boxing world.
