JAKARTA - cruiserweight boxer (90.7 kg) Jake Paul is eyeing IBF's super middleweight world champion (76.2 kg), WBA, WBC, WBO, and Ring Saul "Canelo" Alvarez and WBC Badou cruiserweight world champion Jack as opponents in the next boxing match.
"Canelo is next," Jake Paul wrote on his social media page monitored by ANTARA on Sunday.
Apart from Canelo, the YouTuber and boxer from the United States also made uploads on his social media by praising the World Boxing Association (WBA) led by President Gilberto Mendosa, who according to him has become a bully and is not afraid to recognize him.
Paul expressed his desire to fight World Boxing Council (WBC) Badou Jack.
"Looking at all these lists with the current champions, Badou Jack. Give me the next one," he wrote.
In his latest match, Paul defeated Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. to increase his record to 12 wins and one defeat.

After his victory with an absolute decision, Paul officially entered the WBA rankings by occupying the 14th place.
Paul, who was not satisfied with the victory, is now eyeing a world title fight in the next match.
Boxer nicknamed "The Problem Child" has struggled to gain credibility among boxing enthusiasts and analysts thanks to the list of opponents he faced in 13 games in his career.
However, if he can bring Alvarez or Jack into the ring and show that he can at least compete with them, it will be very helpful in changing the narrative around his boxing career.
