    True or false Jake Paul is the most famous active American boxer?

    Since Money retired, I think it's a fact.

    What are you judging popularity by? Lotsa metrics one can use.

    Obviously Jake is huge on social media & was BEFORE boxing so yea I guess you could argue he's the most famous guy boxing although idk that I'd call him the most famous boxer per se since he's more in the novelty realm of the sport where boxing has often had celebs with lil to no desire to competitively pursue the sport. And I'd argue those types aren't real boxers despite having boxing bouts on their resume.

        It's possible tbh.

        Dark curiosity has me wondering how many people would actually pay for one of his PPV's at full price.

            He's not famous for being a boxer.
            No one takes him seriously
            He probably won't ever fight a boxer

            Shall I go on ?

              Jake Paul is a celebrity boxer that only fight youtubers, MMA fighters, and basketball players. Therefore, people like me don't hold him to the same standards as a professional boxer. He's just having fun and defending his Triller belt.

                Why isn't he a real boxer? He has a license to fight, he has a pro record.

                I mean if you and everyone else acknowledge Mayweather's 50th win, then we are acknowledging Paul's fights.
