As per recent reports Jake Paul is far from done with his clashes against retired UFC stars. UFC fans may know that lately, Paul has been firing several verbal shots at the noted former UFC light heavyweight champ, Quinton ‘Rampage’ Jackson. Well, the former UFC star has also returned Paul’s jibes with his own digs at the ‘Problem Child’.
Paul is known for making offers to fight retired UFC stars. This is why the back-and-forth between him and Jackson has the combat sports community speculating a fight between the two. The noted combat sports covering ‘X’ account, ‘Happy Punch’ also put up an update about the recent online altercations between Paul and Jackson.

There may be nothing in plans involving the two right now. But the combat sports community won’t be shocked if these two decide to take on each other inside the boxing ring. However, ‘The Problem Child’s’ schedule states that the fans may have to wait if they want to watch him fight Jackson.
Who is Jake Paul fighting next?
‘The Problem Child’ may have defeated Andre August via a first-round KO in his previous bout. But it didn’t help improve his reputation among most fans. They also blamed Paul for selecting opponents who would be easier to beat and build up his record. This may be a reason why ‘The Problem Child’ has decided to make a quick return to the ring after his 15 December showdown. Lately, Paul took to his ‘X’ account once more and revealed all the information about his next fight.
Guess who’s back 🙂 … Jake already? Yes, I’m on a mission… But this one is much bigger than me. This one is for the greatest Puerto Rican boxer ever, Amanda Serrano. This one is for the people of Puerto Rico, from the Choliseo to the world. This one is for all of boxing to see… pic.twitter.com/zJzXFZXZ0v

But a look at Paul’s upcoming rival, Javon ‘Wanna’ Walton’s record will showcase that he only has one pro boxing fight under his belt. This is why several fans may criticize him once more for choosing a weak opponent just like they had done before his fight against August.
