, Jake Paul vs Canelo Alvarez: How boxers compare as YouTuber calls out Mexican for mocking Mayweather fight

JAKE PAUL wasted little time after his brother Logan’s fight with Floyd Mayweather.. by calling out super middleweight king Canelo Alvarez.

The Mexican, 30, was critical of old foe Mayweather’s decision to fight the elder Paul brother – labelling it as ‘irrelevant’.

Jake Paul wasted no time in calling out Canelo

And after Mayweather, 44, failed to knock Paul out in their eight-round exhibition bout, Canelo took to Twitter to take another dig.

He posted a facepalm emoji, presumably bemused at the spectacle.

But Jake hit back straight away, ripping into the legendary 56-2-1 fighter.. and calling him out in the process.

He quote tweeted Canelo’s initial post, writing: “You can’t sell PPV’s

“I would eat you alive.”

Given Canelo’s dismissive attitude towards the YouTuber brothers, he would be very unlikely to take a fight against one of them.

But if he did, he’d obviously dominate every category.

At 30, Canelo is at the peak of his powers compared to Jake at 24.

Canelo, on the other hand, has an incredible resume that has seen him win a remarkable 56 of his 59 pro bouts.

The legendary fighter has only ever lost once.

And that was to Mayweather eight years ago.

Canelo has drawn twice, against Gennady Golovkin in 2017, and as a 15-year-old against Jorge Juarez in Mexico.
