Jake Paul has taken the boxing world by storm and it turns out it's only the beginning for the YouTuber turned athlete. Paul wants to dabble in other sports and not all of them involve a ball.

The YouTuber turned boxer recently went on ESPN's First Take where he spoke about his plans once he retires from boxing. He plans on taking quite a few more fights and then making move over to other sports.

“I might mess around with [competing in MMA]. I was practicing my leg kicks the other day for the first time, and it was fun. I’ve got some big beefy legs. so I might go into MMA,” Jake Paul said about leaving boxing. “People forget I was an all-state wrestler in Ohio. Obviously, I already have the boxing skills, so I’m gonna go 10-0, maybe 12-0 as a boxer and then I’m either gonna go to MMA or to the NFL. Maybe Nascar. I’ve got a lot of options. I’m gonna go with the flow.”

The NFL idea was considered quite crazy by many people. Football is very different from combat sports and it's very difficult for someone like Jake Paul to just move over to the league.

The move to Nascar though was the one that shocked social media. Jake Paul also explained his inspiration and it's quite unique one.

“I’m gonna try and do both [NFL and Nascar] at the same time, 100%. My dream is to be like Will Ferrell in Talladega Nights. That’s my goal,” said Jake Paul.
