Jake Paul is not happy with Canelo Álvarez after the latter reportedly backed out of a boxing match with him to sign a four-fight deal with Riyadh Season.
“Canelo Álvarez ducked me, Jake Paul, and is now an owned slave with no regard for the pride of the Mexican people who support him on U.S. soil,” Paul tweeted Friday.
“It’s not surprising when his whole career he has done nothing for the sport of boxing outside the ring. I’m the new face of boxing. You cannot have the biggest fight of 2025 without my name involved. When all of your events tank and lose money, you will all realize who the king of the sport is.”
On Thursday, Álvarez was reportedly finalizing a deal to fight Paul on Netflix in a May 3 event in Las Vegas, with an announcement seemingly imminent.
