Subtitles section

First up, let's say hello to Jake Paul.

Hello, Jake.

How are you?

I'm doing good, baby.

Let's go.

Fresh out of London.

Come on.

Firstly, you're going to get on my good side if you call me baby.

Let's keep that going.

Listen, we've got so much to talk to you about and Shadesha.

We'll say hello to her in just a moment.

But firstly, just tell us a bit about Shadesha Green.

Would you, Jake?

Well, I mean, Shadesha Green has the whole women's boxing scene on froze right now.

She's 12 and 0 with 11 KOs.

Just going through opponents like it's her job, the sweet Terminator.

And she really has the opportunity to make the biggest fight in UK women's boxing history right now, going up against Savannah Marshall.

She's next on the scene and I'm just super proud to be a part of her team and promoting her.

Jake, let's ask Shadesha a couple of questions then.

Shadesha, welcome to the show.

Can I just ask you first and foremost, obviously as the mandatory challenger now for the belts, can you knock Savannah Marshall out?

Absolutely.

I believe that's possible.

I mean, as long as I set it up correctly and I'm patient enough, I don't always go for the knockout, but I'm a finisher.

That's the reason why I'm signed with one of the best promotional teams in the company because, illful, finisher.

So anything is possible in the sport of boxing.

Savannah Marshall became the undisputed super middleweight champion of the world at the weekend.

It was live on Talk Sport as well.

What did you make of her performance?

I thought that she had a great performance.

I think that Franchon Cruz is a very rough and rugged fighter.

She comes forward, she slugs it out.

She makes it very difficult.

She makes it ugly.

And I felt like Savannah made adjustments going into the fourth round.

So she definitely took the belts from the champion, you know, and she definitely was victorious and I seen a victory.

Shadesha, obviously, look, fight fans across the globe are going to be fascinated, interested with this.

What are you going to bring to the party?

What are they going to see from you that perhaps we haven't seen from others?

A lot of skill, boxing IQ and punching power that will devastate women's boxing.

That, I mean, the last thing that we know that, you know, respects to Anne Wolfe.

Anne Wolfe had a devastating knockout over Vonda Ward.

We haven't seen that just yet besides Amanda Serrano.

And so I believe that highlight real knockouts and, you know, it just happens to come.

But most importantly too is skill, skill and technical capabilities.

Jake, let me bring you back for a moment, of course, as a boxing promoter.

We had Savannah Marshall.

She actually joined us on our show earlier on in the week.

She said that women's boxing is better off in the UK. It's not big business at the moment in the US. Why is that, Jake?

Well, I mean, I completely disagree.

The biggest woman's boxing event ever was put on at Madison Square Garden, promoted by myself with Amanda Serrano.

Amanda Serrano is coming back to fight on my card, August 5th.

So, you know, there's tons of fans here.

It's even bigger here.

There's more superstars here.

Clarissa Shields, you know, Amanda Serrano, Shadesia Green, even Franchon Cruz, obviously Savannah Marshall won the fight.

But this, I don't agree with the sentiment.

However, I do like the idea of Shadesia coming to the UK. I'll come to the UK and we can co-promote the event, the event, this event in the UK and make it one of the biggest boxing matches in women's UK boxing history.

Jake, let's talk a little bit about yourself.

Obviously, look, you've got, no doubt you're a very busy man as a promoter, but also you've got some serious stuff coming up yourself as well.

Live and exclusive on TalkSport, Jake Paul versus Nate Diaz.

How excited are you about that and how's all your training going, et cetera?

It's going better than ever.

Obviously, we're one month away here, 31 days exactly.

I'm in the best shape of my life.

I have that chip on my shoulder, that hunger, that drive, that motivation that I sort of lost as I kept on becoming more and more successful in the sport of boxing.

But I'm back.

We have a stacked card.

Even Ashton Silva's on the card.

Obviously, Amanda Serrano versus Heather Hardy.

So, Chris Avila taking on Jeremy Stephens.

So, just all the way through, it's gonna be an electric night of boxing on August 5th.

Let me ask you, we had Tommy Fury on our show a few weeks back, actually.

I asked him the question that when he got into the ring with you, did he feel as though he was fighting for boxing, for boxers?

I'll ask you the same question.

Do you feel as though you're fighting for YouTubers to prove that they're better than just a YouTuber?

Well, I'm more so fighting for the problem children out there, the people who were told there would never be anything, the troublemakers, the ones who didn't really have a clear path in their life, who were always the odd ones out.

That was me.

I'm fighting for those kids, the kids who didn't really have as much talent as everyone else, but had to work harder to get to where they're at.

I'm fighting to show those kids that anything is possible.

Indeed.

And what about after Nate Diaz?

I'm sure you're already considering other options, et cetera, that's what you guys do.

What's gonna be next for you?

Well, hopefully Savannah Marshall isn't scared of Shadesia like the rest of the whole boxing world is.

We're offering people record paydays to fight Shadesia and they just don't wanna do it cause she's that nasty.

So hopefully Savannah Marshall doesn't duck Shadesia and we can make this fight happen in the UK. I would love to promote that.

And then as far as my personal career, there's so many fighters, there's so many people out there.

We have offers out to Tommy.

We've been trying to do the KSI negotiation for years.

So there's just a lot down the horizon.

But when I knock out Nate Diaz, I think that Conor McGregor is gonna see me want a payday and come and get knocked out.

Is that what you're hoping for?

I'm guessing Conor McGregor not in an octagon in a ring, right?

Either one, either one.

We can fight in the PFL smart cage, whatever it is.

I told everybody that I would fight Conor in any form of fight because he, in my opinion, is that shot.

I'll do MMA.

I'm not afraid to step in there.

I've wanted to do that my whole career.

I'm a wrestler, a wrestler background.

So all I'd have to learn is some jujitsu and some kicks, which seems pretty easy to me.

Okay, let me ask you, while I've got you, talking of crossover from mixed martial arts to boxing, what do you make of Tyson Fury's proposed fight with Francis Ngannou?

I think it's huge.

I'm mostly excited for Francis because he deserves big paydays.

He's one of the most electric fighters in the world and Dana White was only paying him 500K.

So I'm excited for him to make tens of millions of dollars and prove to other MMA fighters that you can leave the UFC and become even more successful.

While I've got you, I should congratulate you, I suppose.

We understand, we read that your brother, Logan, has just got engaged.

Are you in charge?

I don't know if you call it, do you call it a stag do or a bachelor party?

What do you call it?

The party before you get married.

Are you in charge of that?

No comment.

Is that a big yes?

He must have something planned for him.

No comment.

Why can't you comment on it in case he's listening?

No comment.

If I just keep asking the same question, will you come?

No, fine, we won't do that.

Listen, let's go back to the reason we got you on to talk about Shadesha Green.

So what's the next step?

Where are we at with this?

When will it happen?

Say that again?

What's gonna happen with Shadesha Green then?

Where are we at and what's the next step?

Yeah, look, I mean, the WBC wants this fight to happen with Savannah.

And so it's just about getting in touch with Savannah Marshall's promoter and making this negotiation happen and put it all on the line.

And it's pretty simple.

The thing about boxing is that everyone complicates it and there's all these negotiations.

Oh, this size ring.

We want this money.

We want it here.

We want this.

No, it's really simple.

Like let's make the fight, boom, sign the contract.

People like to hide behind promoters.

And so we'll expose that if that happens with these negotiations, but it's pretty simple.

Let's just make it happen.

Okay.

I'm just curious, Jake.

You talk about the amount of money involved if you're getting in with Tommy Fury or when Tyson Fury fights and so on.

What sort of money are we looking at roughly?

I'm not gonna hold you to it.

I'm just curious as a boxing fan.

Where are the women at?

What sort of purse do the women get for big fights like this?

Well, they're getting bigger and bigger.

The interest has grown and that's all kudos to Amanda Serrano and Katie Taylor, really.

But, and Clarissa Shields on top of that.

And then Savannah Marshall is now entering into that picture and Shadesha Green is up next.

So the paydays are growing and we're looking to get them more and more into the higher seven figure range.

But now women have the opportunity to make seven figures for a fight, whereas before, they were making less than a hundred K. So in just the past 24 months, women's boxing paydays have 10 X'd.

Jake, what about the men's division right now?

The men's heavyweight division?

Where do you see that?

There's a lot of talk.

Of course, there's always hype and there's always, we're often led down the garden path believing a certain fight is gonna happen and then only to find that it doesn't.

Where is it right now for you?

For me, the heavyweight division's in shambles.

Like the heavyweight division right now is the only division that's not stepping up to the plate and making the big fights happen.

The lightweight division's doing it.

Obviously Earl Spence versus Terrence Crawford, but for some reason in the heavyweight division, we're not getting the Tyce, the Fury versus Joshua.

We're not getting the Fury versus Usyk.

We're not getting the Joshua versus Wilder.

We're not getting Wilder versus Ruiz.

What are these guys doing, guys?

Come on, make this stuff happen and let's make the sport a better place.

You guys don't get paid to spar.

You get paid to fight.

So get in there and stop ducking each other.

Whose fault is it?

Honestly, a lot of the times it goes back to the promoters and boxing, blocking everything and wanting to make the most money and who owns the rights to air the content on what platform.

So a lot of times it's DAZN fighting versus Showtime or ESPN Plus or do it on Top Rank, da, da, da, da.

And it's all these big parties that get involved.

But it's up to the fighters to say, no, let's push this forward.

Let's make this happen regardless of all these crazy things going on.

And that's why I give a lot of props to Ryan Garcia because he was the reason the Gervonta fight happened because he's the one that compromised a lot to make it work.

So some fighter on either side usually is going to have to compromise and really push the ball down the court to make the fights happen.

Okay.

Just finally, you touched on KSI.

How far away is that fight, if at all?

And how are you two at the moment?

You're speaking in terms, if you see him at your brother's wedding, will you have a little chat or a little fight?

With KSI, man, I don't know.

The kid's been saying for years and years, he has all of these excuses.

He's going on tour.

He's focusing on himself.

He's posting back on YouTube again.

He's doing all this stuff when I've just consistently been fighting and fighting and fighting and ready to go at any given time.

So as far as I'm concerned, he doesn't want the fight.

Okay.

Well, you can ask, will you keep going irrelevant of how you get on if you lose your next fight, will you carry on boxing?

I'll always be in this sport.

Okay.

All right.

And you reckon that rematch with Tommy Fury if the money's right will happen?

For sure.

I think it has to happen.

You know, I took someone who's been boxing since they were six years old to a split decision, put them on the canvas when he was the one saying he was going to wipe me on the floor.

It was a terrible performance by me.

I lost fair and square, but that's why I know I can come back, put on an electrifying show.

And I think the fans want it.

Okay.

You don't think Tommy slipped rather than you punched him?

Absolutely not.

Okay.

Jake, listen, thanks for coming on.

A pleasure speaking to you.

Thank you, sir.

Thanks pal, there you go.

Jake Paul.

Of course, a boxer and boxing promoter for Shadesha Green as well.

There's just so much money involved in boxing, isn't there?

I mean, his level, we're talking Titan View or whatever.

You can't help but admire someone in the way that he is, the way that he's got himself right at the top table.

He really has.

I admire that.

I mean, when he says the UFC is going to be basically wrestling with a few kicks, I'm not totally convinced about that at all.

If he fought Conor McGregor in the octagon, he would get his head weaved into the canvas.

I would have thought so.

And I would have thought Nate Diaz, if he's listening to that particular comment, I think he'd like to have something to say about that or probably will actually have something to say about that on the night.

But listen, the boy clearly is a very confident young man.

Business-wise, he's absolutely cleaning up everywhere he goes.

He's now promoting.

When I watched the Tommy Fury fight, I didn't see anything there that would make me necessarily wanna go and run out the door and go and watch him if he's fighting around the corner.

I get it.

It's not aimed at us.

I get it.

No, it's not.
