‘The Problem Child’ has been living as much as his nickname over the past few days.
Jake Paul was certainly one of several fighters to comment on Chris Lillis and Hunter Hess’s admissions about representing the USA on the Winter Olympics.
The controversial boxer didn’t stop there when sharing his thoughts on one other topic that shares some similarities.
While it doesn’t seem like Paul will probably be fighting again until the second half of the yr, he’s still going to be actively involved with Most Useful Promotions.
Before he thinks about stepping contained in the ring again, his top priority could be to fix his relationship with the highest fighter on their roster.

Amanda Serrano responds to Jake Paul calling for people to boycott the Super Bowl half-time show
No matter what you concentrate on him and his profession, Jake Paul has had a big effect on the expansion of ladies’s boxing via Most Useful Promotions.
Fights like Katie Taylor’s trilogy bout with Amanda Serrano have set a brand new standard of what the feminine side of the game is able to.
Because the record holder for essentially the most world titles won by a female in several weight classes, Serrano has been a large a part of MVP’s success.
Paul’s recent post on social media telling people to “rally together” and boycott the Super Bowl LX half-time show since the artist Bad Bunny is ‘a fake American citizen performing who publicly hates America’ could change their dynamic.
Just like the artist who performed through the Seattle Seahawks’ win over the Recent England Patriots, Serrano proudly represents Puerto Rico, which led to her posting a response on X.
“Tonight I’m here where I’m presupposed to be in my beautiful Island with my people celebrating and watching with awe how well Benito represented us and our culture,” she wrote.”
“I’m proud to be Puerto Rican, and I’m proud to be an American citizen. Puerto Ricans aren’t ‘fake Americans.’ We’re residents who’ve contributed to this country in every field, from military service to sports, business, science, and the humanities, and our identity and citizenship deserve respect.
“I might not have the opportunities I actually have today without the support and belief that Most Useful Promotions and Jake Paul showed in me, and I’ll at all times be pleased about the role they’ve played in helping change my life and in elevating women’s boxing,” she continued, directly addressing Paul and MVP. “At the identical time, I would like to be clear: I don’t agree with statements that query the legitimacy or identity of Puerto Rican people, and I cannot support that characterization. It’s improper.
“I fight with the pride of Puerto Rico and represent my flag each time I step into the ring. I’ll at all times stand with my people, with respect for who we’re, and with pride in where we come from. I won’t ever change and can ceaselessly be a Proud Boricua.”

Jake Paul has already attempted to elucidate his comments
Following the backlash that Jake Paul’s comments received, he’s posted several times on social media to argue that his words were ‘misinterpreted’.
Paul said that he loves Puerto Rico and that Bad Bunny is a ‘fake’ due to his values and criticism of the USA, not due to where he’s from.
“To make clear: I wasn’t calling anyone a ‘fake citizen’ because they’re from Puerto Rico. I live in Puerto Rico, and I really like Puerto Rico,” he wrote on X. “I actually have used my platform to support Puerto Rico time and time again and can at all times accomplish that.
“But should you’re publicly criticizing ICE who’re doing their job and openly hating on America, I’m going to talk on it. Period. That’s the identical reason I called out Hunter Hess,” Paul continued. “In the event you profit from a rustic and the platform it gives you, but publicly disrespect it at the identical time, that’s what I mean by being a fake citizen. And I agree love is more powerful than hate. Love America.”
NBC said through the broadcast that Bad Bunny’s performance was the most-watched half-time show since 2018 with 135.4 million viewers.
