Don’t expect a fight between Jake Paul and Canelo Álvarez anytime soon. Following the news that Álvarez dropped out of his expected May 3 fight with Paul to sign a four-fight deal with the Saudi Arabian-based Riyadh Season, the influencer has fired some serious shots at his former opponent.
“Canelo Álvarez ducked me Jake Paul and is now an owned slave with no regard for the pride of the Mexican people who support him on U.S. soil. It’s not surprising when his whole career he has done nothing for the sport of boxing outside the ring,” Paul wrote in a post on X on Friday.
