Was the recent scuffle between Jake Paul and Floyd Mayweather a PR stunt? 'The Problem Child' reveals
A viral video of Jake Paul almost getting into a scuffle with Floyd Mayweather and his 25-person entourage has now been declared a publicity stunt by 'The Problem Child'.
Paul has a background in YouTube and children's shows, and alongside his brother Logan, they have created some incredibly viral content. 'The Problem Child' entered the world of boxing several years ago, but it seems that he has not totally forgotten his sensationalistic past.
'The Problem Child' was recently interviewed by Wade Plem, where he declared that the Jake Paul-Floyd Mayweather scuffle was a PR stunt. Paul also showed Plem a photo of both men at dinner together, which 'The Problem Child' used to claim that the beef is fake.
"Yeah [me and Floyd] were like, 'Let's set this up and make this go viral.' And viral it did [go]. Bro it went on every single news page, outlet, we got exactly what we wanted out of it... We needed people to think it was real."

Logan Paul, Jake's older brother, had a boxing match with Floyd Mayweather several years ago where 'The Problem Child' initially caused problems with 'Money'.
Paul stole Mayweather's hat at a media event, which instigated a melee between both parties. Following a recent video of Paul getting attacked by Mayweather's team, many believed that the beef was still ongoing.
Muhammad Ali's grandson responds to Jake Paul calling him out
Biaggio Ali Walsh, the grandson of boxing legend Muhammad Ali, was recently signed by surging MMA promotion, the Professional Fighters League (PFL). His younger brother, Nico Ali Walsh, is a professional boxer.
Recently, Jake Paul called out both Walsh brothers to a fight. 'The Problem Child', who also recently signed with the PFL, claimed that he would fight Biaggio Ali Walsh in MMA and fight Nico Ali Walsh in boxing.
Biaggio has now responded to Paul's callout and said this:
"Nico fights at 162 [pounds], I fight at 155 [pounds]. I have no problem with Jake Paul but he should fight someone his own size. I don't know why he's trying to fight people smaller than him. He fought at 185 [pounds], at cruiserweight, in boxing. Fight at 185 [pounds] in MMA."
