Jake Paul won't stop trying to get Canelo Alvarez's attention. The YouTuber turned boxer keeps calling out the Mexican champion, but Alvarez isn't biting.
Paul recently announced he'll fight Mike Tyson, a move many see as a publicity stunt. He's also scheduled to face Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., using this bout to take another swipe at Alvarez.
"I just defeated the baddest man on the planet, and now I'm going against a former champion who conman Canelo couldn't finish. Chavez Jr. is Mexican, but I, El Gallo De Dorado, have the will and heart of the great Mexican fighters."
Paul's bold words ignore a key fact: Alvarez dominated Chavez Jr. in 2017, winning every round in a unanimous decision. To maintain any credibility, Paul will need to stop Chavez Jr., who's likely in worse shape now than he was seven years ago.
While Paul chases attention and financial gains, Alvarez focuses on his professional career. He's getting ready to fight William Scull in Saudi Arabia, aiming to reclaim his super middleweight titles.
Alvarez has made it clear he only fights "real boxers" and pays little attention to Paul's provocations. The contrast between the two couldn't be starker – one chasing publicity, the other chasing championships.
As Paul continues his quest for boxing legitimacy, Alvarez keeps his eyes on the prize. The YouTuber might keep calling, but for now, Canelo isn't answering.
