After a Jake Paul right hook sent Tyron Woodley limply to the deck in their boxing match on Saturday, just about everyone has been weighing in on who the YouTube star should fight next. Paul remains undefeated in his boxing career, though he's never fought a real boxer, and one of the latest people to call him out could actually present an intriguing matchup, even if he doesn't have a history in the sport.
Free-agent NFL running back Le'Veon Bell took to Twitter after Saturday night's showdown in order to call out Paul and propose a bout between the two of them.
@jakepaul fight me, stop tryna fight ppl who can’t box
— Le'Veon Bell (@LeVeonBell) December 19, 2021
Despite not having any professional boxing experience, Bell challenged Paul to a fight and indicated the 24-year-old needs to stop going after people who can't box. Bell has long been a boxing enthusiast and often posts videos of him working on his craft while training for the NFL season.
After his statement knockout over Woodley on Saturday, Paul issued a challenge to UFC star Jorge Masvidal, who replied saying he would love to take him on in an MMA fight.
As for Bell's challenge, it seems to have fallen on deaf ears, though if he keeps pushing he certainly has the platform to at least get the attention of Paul and his camp.
Paul was initially expected to fight reality TV star Tommy Fury, who is the brother of boxing legend Tyson Fury. Fury pulled out of the fight, however, and was replaced by Woodley for Jake Paul-Tyron Woodley II. Based on how the first two have gone, we expect Woodley won't be quite as eager to step into the ring if invited for Round 3.
