De la Hoya on Paul: "He would fight champions if he was serious about his career"

Alexandr Ormanji March 16, 2024, 10:49 a.m.

Former world champion and now a successful promoter Oscar de la Hoya spoke about Jake Paul 's prospects in boxing. Oscar noted that if Paul was serious about his career, he could already box not with veterans, but with such current champions as Artur Beterbiev, Dmitry Bivol and others.

"Jake can win a championship title, but not in a fight with Mike, who I love and respect. If Jake was serious about his career, he would fight guys like Jay Opetaia, Artur Beterbiev, Dmitry Bivol and Mairis Briedis. But he won't fight them, because you can't make easy money on these fights," De La Hoya said.

Recall, his next fight Jake Paul will hold against 57-year-old Mike Tyson.
