Jake Paul's recent win over Mike Tyson in an exhibition match didn't go unnoticed by Julio César Chávez Jr., who seized the moment to challenge the influencer and boxer. Through his social media, Chávez Jr. questioned Paul's true skills in the ring and proposed a fight against a more experienced fighter like himself.

"You say you can fight anyone, which is probably true because of the money. But you won’t fight someone who knows how to box, like Julio César Chávez Jr. It's time, Jake," wrote the Mexican boxer, along with a photo of the two from a previous event. The message was meant to pressure Paul into accepting a fight that, according to Chávez Jr., would truly test his skills.

Chávez Jr. made his return to professional boxing in 2024 after overcoming personal struggles, securing a win in his fight against Uriah Hall. Now, he's looking to revitalize his career by facing bigger names like Paul, who has faced criticism for picking opponents based more on their media appeal than their boxing abilities.

Meanwhile, Jake Paul continues to draw attention with his interest in fighting figures like Conor McGregor or Saúl "Canelo" Álvarez, although the latter has publicly rejected the idea. For now, Chávez Jr.'s challenge remains unanswered, leaving the door open for a potential match that could be pivotal for both the Mexican fighter and the influencer in their respective boxing careers.
