Jake Paul vs Andrew Tate on cards? Boxer sends Internet into a frenzy with face-off video

Almost a fortnight after his unanimous decision victory against MMA legend Anderson Silva, Jake Paul has teased a potential boxing bout against viral Internet sensation Andrew Tate. The YouTuber-turned-professional boxer took to his Instagram handle on Thursday to share a video where he can be seen facing off against Andrew Tate. Tate is a former kickboxing world champion, who went viral on social media earlier this year for numerous reasons.

“Negotiations,” wrote Paul, while also tagging his boxing promotion Most Valuable Promotions in the caption. Meanwhile, the video sent the Internet into a frenzy as the potential match-up became one of the biggest talking points for the sports world. Paul picked up a unanimous decision win after eight rounds of the intense fight against former UFC champion Anderson Silva in his last outing and silenced his critics.

While the former Disney star was constantly criticised for not facing a real boxer throughout his journey in professional boxing, Silva was seen as Paul’s first worthy opponent. However, the 25-year-old displayed his commendable skills inside the ring and picked up the win on October 29 after knocking down Silva. If the Most Valuable Productions manage to successfully negotiate a fight against Tate, it will certainly drive tons of followers and fans crazy.
