"They're losing the next day" - Jake Paul reveals how NBA players in Los Angeles become prey to the party lifestyle
Per Jake Paul, the City of Angels giveth, and it taketh. Paul believes life in Los Angeles is so fast that many successful athletes get enticed by the glitz and glamour and fall hard into the party lifestyle.
UFC superstar Bo Nickal recently traveled down to Paul's boxing gym in Puerto Rico to get some insights into how to build his brand in and out of the octagon. During the visit, the YouTube superstar told the fighter his rationale behind building his gym.
Per 'The Problem Child, ' life in LA offers many distractions, and his gym helps him to get away from all that and focus on his goal of being a world champion boxer. Furthermore, Paul insinuated that he has seen the party life catching up to many athletes, including NBA players:
"I did live a crazy f****g life in LA, it's n**s, man. You get caught up in all these crazy parties, and this lifestyle is very fast. So many events, there are a lot of distractions... So I needed to remove me from all of that... A lot of the influencers and stuff that moved to Los Angeles, its good for them at first, but then it ends up being like detrimental... Even athletes, bro, I would be out there, and you see these NBA players popping into the clubs like, and then they're losing the next day and s**t."
