Anthony Joshua vs Jake Paul could be in jeopardy as ‘The Problem Child’ receives direct threat

Talks over one of the most anticipated fights in the boxing world, between Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul, have become complicated. Despite initial rumors suggesting a showdown at the iconic Wembley Stadium in England, Joshua’s promoter Eddie Hearn has revealed that the bout will likely be held in the United States

The main reason behind this decision is the safety concerns of the British Boxing Control Board, which sees Paul’s lack of experience as a risk in facing such a talented heavyweight. This news has put a damper on the euphoria of English fans, but it has not diminished the excitement for the fight.

A challenge for Jake Paul

Meanwhile, another boxer has entered the scene with a direct challenge to Paul. Four-weight former champion Adrien Broner, known as ‘The Problem’, has released a video on Instagram in which he challenges Paul with blunt language: “Jake Paul, I’m going to knock you out”. This challenge has generated a lot of buzz in the boxing community, as Broner, despite his title history, has been inconsistent and has struggled with personal and legal issues in recent years.

Adrien Broner’s challenge has sparked debate among boxing pundits and opinion is leaning in Jake Paul’s favor. Former UFC fighter and podcaster Brendan Schaub addressed the issue on his show, admitting that Broner is “without a doubt a better boxer,” but highlighting his size disadvantage. Schaub emphasized that Broner is “much, much smaller” than Paul, who last competed at cruiserweight.

The obstacles of Jake Paul

Although Paul has been in talks to fight big names such as Gervonta Davis, those negotiations were ruined after Davis’ draw against Lamont Roach Jr. Now, with the obstacles facing the possible fight against Anthony Joshua and the direct threat from Adrien Broner, Jake Paul’s immediate future in boxing is full of uncertainty

The decision to change the location of the fight with Joshua and Broner’s unexpected challenge show that Paul’s path in the world of professional boxing will not be as straightforward as some might think.
