Jake Paul reveals why he chose Andre August despite his lack of popularity

Jake Paul received backlash from sone when he announced that he was going to fight Andre August. While his fans are used to big events and him going up against rather popular fighters, the decision to fight August came as a shock to many.

However, Paul decided to fight August because of his long-term goal in the sport. 'The Problem Child' has been quite vocal about how he wants to become a world champion. While speaking about it during a recent appearance on The MMA Hour, he said:

"There’s a lot of reasons. It’s mostly for me, for my experience, my road to world championship, and to grow inside the squared circle, those four corners. And to get the time under my belt. I think people, when I said I wanted to become world champion, thought it was just some gimmick or I was saying it just to sell more fights or to gain people’s attention. When I said it, I actually meant it."

Jake Paul continued:

"This is me acting like a boxing prospect. It’s me building my experience in the ring, taking challenges, and staying sharp in camp. Working, working, working. This is the time I need to be able to get to that level of being the best in the world."
