Callouts continue to flood in for Jake Paul.
After Paul’s controversial fight with Mike Tyson, the ex-Disney star was set for another high-profile Netflix event one year on. Those plans, however, have collapsed after the cancellation of Paul’s match against Gervonta Davis.
That bout, which had split opinion owing to the huge size difference and exhibition stipulation, was set for Miami’s Kaseya Center on November 14. But Netflix and Paul are scrambling for a replacement for a delayed date after new allegations of domestic abuse against Davis.
Paul’s initial hit list featured Francis Ngannou and boxing stars like Ryan Garcia. Both of those options are a no-go, and a new rival for the Cleveland native remains unconfirmed.
As the search goes on, Paul has received a different type of offer from a 400-pound behemoth who recently made a splash in his MMA debut.

Eddie Hall would fight Jake Paul ‘with one hand’ tied behind his back
Eddie Hall, a former strongman who was crowned the World’s Strongest Man in 2017, has been gaining plenty of attention in the combat sports world.
After a boxing match with Hafthor Bjornsson, known for his role as ‘The Mountain’ in Game of Thrones, Hall won his MMA debut at KSW 105 this year by knocking out Mariusz Pudzianowski in just 30 seconds.
The 37-year-old Englishman is on the hunt for his next prominent bout, and he would not mind it coming in the ring against Paul.
Hall became the latest to call out ‘The Problem Child’ on social media. He even offered to handicap himself in the potential fight to even the odds.
“I am an easy man to get hold of. And I’d do it with one hand tied behind my back,” Hall wrote on X.

Eddie Hall has been linked to an MMA fight against Dillon Danis
While he is setting his sights on Paul, the strongman competitor looks to have his hands full with another brash personality from the combat sports world.
After Dillon Danis won the first-ever Misfits MMA fight in August, he faced off in the ring with Hall and the pair agreed a super-fight.
In the latest update, Hall confirmed that plans are moving forward for the matchup.
“Coming soon,” the Englishman wrote via Instagram.
“Some say Dillon’s world-class jiu-jitsu would be too much for me.
“Others say he’s never felt a real punch, and I’ve got the hardest recorded punch on the planet, fact. Who will win?”
