ToggleCarl Froch Challenges Jake Paul to a Charity Boxing Match
Carl Froch has issued a new challenge to Jake Paul, proposing a boxing match with the YouTuber-turned-boxer for charity.
The former super-middleweight champion has strongly criticized Paul’s boxing career, repeatedly expressing his desire to return from retirement. After Paul’s victory over Mike Tyson, the Nottingham-born fighter made another attempt to secure a showdown through a video call, promising to end Paul’s boxing career. In his emotional video message, Froch clarified his charitable intent.
Froch’s Intention for Charity and His Aggressive Tone
“I will fight for charity. Don’t you understand that part?” the former champion declared. His challenge came with an aggressive tone as he continued, “I’m not asking for a paycheck, I’m just asking to shove Jake Paul’s teeth down his damn throat. Boom. Game over.”
Ending Paul’s Career: Froch’s Strong Message
Froch emphasized his desire to end Paul’s career, stating, “Jake Paul’s pathetic, fake career will end with just one punch. That’s all I’m asking for.” After months of silence, Paul’s advisor, Nakisa Bidarian, responded to Froch’s challenge with specific conditions.
Nakisa Bidarian’s Response to Froch’s Challenge
Speaking out, Bidarian said: “Alright Carl, make a reasonable offer – after all, he’s fighting for charity – he’s already said he’ll donate 100% of his earnings to charity.”
Bidarian stressed that any proposal must guarantee a seven-figure payout for Paul, who “has the largest following in the entire sport.”
Bidarian Rejects Approaching Froch First
He added that they would “be happy to talk” if these conditions were met. Bidarian dismissed the idea of approaching Froch first, emphasizing his age.
“We certainly don’t want to go to the UK to pitch to Carl Froch, 47 years old – a man who has never sold a pay-per-view ticket in the U.S., the most important market – and make him an offer,” he stated.
The Charitable Aspect of the Challenge
He reiterated the charitable aspect: “So, if and when they are ready to make us an offer that shows he will donate 100% of the proceeds and all the organizations involved will be for charity.”
