Jake Paul leaks phone call with Canelo Alvarez as he makes monster $200 million fight offer

Jake Paul has contacted Canelo Alvarez and suggested he has $200 million for their potential fight.

YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul had signed a deal to face the pound-for-pound superstar last year.

But as his rival was about to put pen to paper, Turki Alalshikh lured the Mexican away with a lucrative deal.

Since then, Paul was brutally knocked out by Anthony Joshua in a blockbuster commercial clash.

He had his jaw broken in several places and was forced to undergo surgery, plunging his future into doubt.

And despite suggesting he could be forced to retire just days ago, Paul has stirred up new interest in a clash with Alvarez.

The ‘Problem Child’ has suggested he has a $200 million kitty to now make his fight with the Mexican.

And he has suggested Alvarez wants to make the clash happen.

“Canelo wants 200 million. I have the 200 million dollars for you, easy money,” he said.

“Jake Paul vs Canelo, let’s get it done. This is what the fans have been waiting for. This is the biggest fight that can possibly be made in boxing.

“Canelo says he’s down on the phone, so we’re going to make it happen.

“I have the 200 million and I think that’s going to be the next fight.

“Sign the contract Canelo. Much respect to you, let’s make the biggest fight in boxing happen.”

Paul leaks Alvarez response

As aforementioned by Paul, he has suggested that the former undisputed champion has already agreed.

And he posted video footage of himself on the phone with the boxing legend, mulling over the terms.

He first said: “I look up to you, you’re an inspiration.

“One day we will make a fight and until then we will be good friends.”

It is quite the U-turn from Paul who had heavily criticised the big-selling icon for his failure to put pen to paper.

But now he has suggested they are on their way to an agreement for a future clash.

It will be unlikely to happen until 2027, with Paul currently out of action.

Alvarez will also take his own showdown, with a September clash against Christian Mbilli plotted for Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
