Dolphins Tyreek Hill Challenges Boxing Star Jake Paul For A Fight

Hill indicated he would be interested in speaking with UFC CEO Dana White regarding a career in fighting, whether it be boxing or the cage, during an interview with Bob Menery on the Fully Tilted podcast (via FinsXtra).

“Just take it to the cage, bro,” Hill said. “That’s why I want to meet Dana White, I want to get in the cage. I want to get in the cage or I want to box.”

Hill shouldn’t hold his breath since White, 54, isn’t in the business of arranging amateur fights unless they include billionaires who own social media platforms.

Hill stated that Paul would be the ideal opponent for him to make his debut, shocking Menery with his claim that he was a lifelong boxer.

“My first fight needs to be like Jake Paul or something like that,” Hill stated. “I don’t think [he’s tough]. I grew up boxing.”

On the Instagram post, Paul, 27, posted a “oh no” comment. He’s already shown himself to be a very skilled boxer. Hill has to exercise caution.

Although the eight-year veteran has never engaged in professional boxing, he asserts that he boxed as a child, suggesting that fighting may be in his future.
It wouldn’t be simple to beat Paul, though, since the YouTuber who turned fighter has had a successful debut.

In his eight fights since his debut in 2020, Paul has an 8-1 record with five knockouts. His lone defeat came in a split decision against Tommy Fury in February of last year.

For the time being, Hill’s main goal is to have a successful season with the Dolphins.
