Boxing’s Cruiserweight Champion Reveals What Forced Him to Get a Tattoo of Jake Paul

Jake Paul is one of the biggest boxing stars in today’s time. Paul witnessed an unimaginable rise in 2021 as he collected a total of three wins. With that, he placed himself quite well in the eyes of the fans. The YouTuber also garnered attention from pro-boxers, as well. Henceforth, the IBF cruiserweight champ, Mairis Briedis even got a tattoo of Jake Paul, leaving the fight fraternity in shock.

Recently, he was in a chat with Behind the Gloves. Here, Briedis revealed why he got a tattoo of ‘The Problem Child’.

“You know, he’s an interesting and very loud guy. Pretending to be a boxer. Being a blogger, I want to show him real boxing. That’s why this is like one year how I hummed him, like hunting.” he said.

The champ uploaded a video of getting a tattoo on Jake Paul’s name. “Jake’s Bad Karma” he inked.

Right after this, many fans and boxing pundits lashed out at Breidis for getting this tattoo. Also, with his above comments and these actions, it’s clear that the champ wants to square off with ‘The Problem Child’.

However, the YouTuber doesn’t seem in contention to take on a world champion now. Recently, Paul beat Woodley via a terrific KO in the rematch.
