Jake Paul has claimed he would have defeated Saul “Canelo” Alvarez “for sure” if the pair had fought in May, as the YouTube star continues to eye a bout with the Mexican icon.
Paul, 28, has gone 11-1 as a professional boxer and most recently fought in November, beating heavyweight legend Mike Tyson, 58, on points. He was then in talks to box super-middleweight star Canelo this year, but the latter opted to sign a deal with the Saudis instead, kickstarting what is due to be a four-fight run.
