“That was lit. I’m taking a moment to soak it in, I caught the boxing bug, I put the work in and I’m in love with this sport.
“My power and speed took him out in the first round.
“I dedicated the last five months of my life to this, I sacrificed everything for this. You all said this was my best competitor and I silenced him in one round.
“I didn’t even get to showcase my boxing ability.”
“Y’all said that this was my best competitor. He’s undefeated, he’s 2-0, he’s got energy, he’s got stamina. I didn’t even get to showcase my real boxing ability, it was all just natural instinct in there.” Jake Paul after beating Gib. (H/T – Sporting News)
Following his TKO victory, Jake called out KSI, who was seated ringside. KSI had previously defeated Jake’s elder brother Logan Paul last November at the Staples Center via a controversial decision.
