One name he has mentioned was Kamaru Usman as he wanted to fight a current UFC champ. Usman, responded to Paul saying he would beat him up but now after UFC 268, Paul believes the fight would be easy as he didn&#8217;t think highly of his performance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI mean, he could barely beat up a 170-pounder. Took a lot of shots, man. He\u2019s getting old, right? He\u2019s 35 and I think that\u2019s starting to show. I think he is out of his prime already. He\u2019s light work,&#8221; Paul said to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=0_GvrOB21Qs&amp;ab_channel=TMZSports\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">TMZ Sports<\/a>. &#8220;You know, I respect Canelo and his boxing ability but as far as Kamaru Usman getting into the boxing ring, like I said, it\u2019s light work. Look what I did to Tyron [Woodley], the five-time UFC champion. Kamaru is I don&#8217;t even know how many time UFC champion, I know Kamaru beat Woodley, but in boxing, completely different. I make light work of him like I said.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Although Jake Paul believes he beats Kamaru Usman with ease in boxing, it&#8217;s unlikely it will ever happen. Usman is the current welterweight champion and a big star for the promotion so the UFC and Dana White wouldn&#8217;t want to let him out of his contract, they have also made it clear they don&#8217;t want to work with Paul.<\/p>\n<p>Even though Paul vs. Usman will never happen, it is smart for him to continue to talk about it <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mma-news\/dana-white\/jake-paul-thanks-control-freak-dana-white-for-promoting-his-fights-you-literally-tee-up-every-single-fight-for-me-perfectly\/\">as it gets people talking<\/a>. It will also hype up his December 18 showdown against Tommy Fury which will be a massive fight.<\/p>\n<p>Do you think Jake Paul would beat Kamaru Usman in a boxing match?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jake Paul believes he would beat Kamaru Usman in a boxing match with ease.
