‘He has no chance’ – Jake Paul is advised not to fight Alex Pereira after terrifying amateur boxing footage emerged showing UFC star knocking his opponents to the ground

‘He has no chance’ – Jake Paul is advised not to fight Alex Pereira after terrifying amateur boxing footage emerged showing UFC star knocking his opponents to the ground

Boxing fans insist that Jake Paul should give up the fight against Alex Pereira.

“The Problem Child” challenged the UFC light heavyweight champion following his sixth-round stoppage win over Mike Perry in July.

Paul is scheduled to face Mike Tyson on November 15, but after that he wants to face Pereira.

“Alex Pereira, you said you wanted to box, I am the king of it,” said Paul.

“Come on over, we can do this. I just beat a BKFC champion, I beat several UFC champions and he says he wants to box.”

“So, Alex Pereira, let’s make it happen after Mike Tyson.”

Unlike Paul’s previous UFC opponents, Pereira is no boxing novice.

The Brazilian MMA star has reportedly competed 28 times in amateur boxing (25-3), with all 25 of his victories coming by knockout.

Recently, terrifying footage surfaced online showing “Poatana” beating his unpaid opponents to the ground. In one clip, he can be seen throwing one of his opponents out of the ring.

Under the video, fans flocked to the comments section to urge Paul to stay away from Pereira.

One supporter wrote: “Jake Paul doesn’t want this smoke. He doesn’t stand a chance.”

Another tweeted: “Now @JakePaul regrets challenging him.”

Paul is scheduled to face Tyson on November 15th.

A third added: “He knocks out Jake Paul in two sets.”

It is extremely unlikely that the fight will take place in the near future, as UFC President Dana White has already insisted that he will not sanction the fight as long as Pereira is under contract with him.

White has a long-standing feud with Paul and told TNT Sports in June: “Let me tell you about Jake Paul [vs Pereira].

“That’s why people love him” – Dana White reacts to Alex Pereira’s plans for the time after UFC 307!

“The media believes his bullshit and prints it – that’s the craziest thing ever…

“I didn’t even know Jake Paul was fighting. I was on vacation in Italy and had no idea. There have been all these stories written, it’s ridiculous.”

“I stopped paying attention to Jake Paul when he lost to [Tommy] Fury.

“When he fought someone his age who actually boxed, he lost.”
