YouTube streamer Tim ‘TimTheTatman’ Betar brought up this phenomenon during a live broadcast after Paul’s latest victory.
While he doesn’t necessarily believe Jake is on par with legends like Mike Tyson and Muhammad Ali, Tim does argue that the youngest Paul bro is certainly bringing life back into the ‘sweet science’ thanks to his audience.
“Do I think Jake Paul is on any level like Muhammad Ali or Mike Tyson, or any of these legends, right, that I know from boxing?” he asked. “Obviously not.”
“Obviously, those guys are in their own ballpark, in my opinion,” he continued. “But, at the end of the day, Jake is getting eyes on boxing. Regardless of whether you hate him or you love him. That is something you may’t deny. You can’t deny it.”
