I respect Jake Paul’s passion to pursue his boxing career, he has a talent. He can fight so why not?
Paul last stepped into the ring against Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. in June this year in Anaheim, winning by unanimous decision. His record now stands at 12 wins (seven by knockout) and one loss.
Pacquiao will fight for the WBC welterweight title against Mario Barrios on July 20 in Las Vegas. In August 2021, Manny lost to Yordenis Ugas by unanimous decision. His professional record includes 62 wins (39 by knockout), eight losses, and two draws.
