Jake Paul names Tom Aspinall, KSI, Darren Till and Chris Eubank on his list "before I rest"
Paul posted 12 names on X, from Canelo Alvarez and Francis Ngannou to Sean Strickland, but Tommy Fury, the first man to beat him, is not among them.
Jake Paul has put Tom Aspinall, KSI, Darren Till and Chris Eubank on a list of the opponents he wants. "Before I rest…" he posted on X, naming them alongside Canelo Alvarez, Francis Ngannou, Conor McGregor, Sean Strickland, Ryan Garcia, Edgar Berlanga, Deontay Wilder and Nate Diaz.
He marked McGregor for "Boxing & MMA", Aspinall for "Boxing" and Diaz for "MMA", ended the list with "World Title" and tagged his promotional partner, Nakisa Bidarian: "Make it happen."
Tommy Fury is not on it. Fury beat Paul in 2023, becoming the first man to beat him, and Bidarian has wanted a rematch as Paul's next fight, though Fury's father and trainer John disputed agreeing to a December date and said February or March 2027 would work: John Fury on the rematch date.
The list came about an hour after Paul posted "If you want your fair share call MVP when you are free", following a post from UFC middleweight champion Strickland, who is in a pay dispute with the UFC, saying he was "contemplating just going to 205 knocking out my contract and scrapping with @jakepaul": Strickland on pay and Jake Paul.
