Jake Paul brags after inclusion in list with Ronaldo and Jordan
Jake Paul has been named one of the "most clutch athletes of all time", and he is certainly lapping the attention up.
The YouTuber-turned-boxer was named on the list alongside esteemed names such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods.
Streamer Edwin Castro – known as @Castro1021 – named the internet star fourth on his list behind Manchester United star Ronaldo, six-time NBA champion Jordan and 15-time major winner Woods.
Castro1021 tweeted: "Most clutch athletes of all time in the correct order: Cristiano Ronaldo. Michael Jordan. Tiger Woods. Jake Paul. Born winners."
After being made aware of the social media post, the 24-year-old posted the tweet on his Instagram story for his 17.6 million followers to see.
Paul is undefeated in the boxing ring with four wins from as many fights so far in his short professional career.
In his last fight, he prevailed via points decision against former UFC champion Tyron Woodley, who was making his boxing debut.
Fans will not have to wait long to see Paul in action again.
After months of jibes and going back and forth, the American and Tommy Fury have finally agreed a deal to fight each other.
The pair will finally settle their long-running feud in the ring on December 18, with the Briton travelling to Tampa, Florida for the grudge match.
Who will come out on top between Jake Paul and Tommy Fury? Let us know in the comments section.
Following the fight confirmation, Paul took to Instagram and aimed more digs at his future opponent.
He penned: "It’s finally official. Timothy had no choice but to sign the contract so he could finally pay his bar tabs, afford a shirt for the club, and stop living off Molly!
"December 18th in Tampa Bay Im changing this w****r's name to Tommy Fumbles and celebrating with Tom Brady.
"Pucker up Timmy… it’s time to kiss your last name and your family’s boxing legacy goodbye. Ez money lineup here aye? #PaulFury One Will Fall.”
In response, Fury posted a social media message of his own which read: "Time to do what should’ve been done to you a long time ago….You’re getting knocked spark out."
Paul appears confident in his abilities to best Fury after agreeing to pay the Mancunian an eye-watering £367,000 out of his own purse if he loses.
That bonus is in addition to Fury's show purse in excess of £734,000, which is the amount he's understood to have turned down shortly before a fight agreement was reached.
