Jake Paul Claims Alex Pereira’s Team Is Interested in Boxing Match

Jake Paul claims the UFC is getting in the way of a potential boxing matchup against Alex Pereira.

Paul was scheduled to fight Gervonta Davis in an exhibition boxing matchup on a Netflix card on Nov. 14 in Miami. However, the fight fell through after Davis was sued by his ex-girlfriend Courtney Rossel for aggravated battery, among other charges.

Paul is on the lookout for new opponents to headline a Netflix boxing card by the end of the year. “The Problem Child” is eyeing Terence Crawford , Ryan Garcia, Saul “Canelo” Alvarez, Oleksandr Usyk, KSI and Alex Pereira.
