Professional boxer Teddy Atlas assesses YouTuber turned pugilist Jake Paul

Professional Boxer Teddy Atlas, who has trained many a champion from Mike Tyson to Alexander Povetkin, said that Jake is still new in the circuit and must hone his skills more to be a champion. On Jake's part, he is a YouTuber who landed up into professional boxing and is now in his sixth bout.

Jake Paul and his brother Logan Paul, both YouTubers, fought amateur against KSI and his brother Deji Olatunji. KSI and Deji are the founding members of Sidemen. After this, Paul fought Nate Robinson in an exhibition match that had Mike Tyson in the final round against Roy Jones.




Teddy believes that Jake likes to go in for short punches and judges his range and strikes quite cleverly; for this, he is respected. Given all the tactics that Jake deploys and taking his current five professional fights that he has fought and won to date, he still needs to deliver more on the table.

Teddy thinks that Jake is a fighter, but he is still raw on the inside. Something like a half-done steak that is still raw on the inside. They have served a raw dish on the table, and he is the underdog.

Jake is a boxer who likes to be an "inside fighter", staying close to his opponent so that it doesn’t give the opponent room to fight. However, the fighter in him is delivering on big fights and therefore he is respected.
