Dillon Danis and BJ Penn among fighters interested in boxing Jake Paul next

By Adam D Martin - April 18, 2021

Bellator fighter Dillon Danis and UFC Hall of Famer BJ Penn are among the fighters who are interested in boxing Jake Paul next.

Dillon Danis, Ben Askren

Paul knocked out Ben Askren in devastating fashion on Saturday night during a highly-anticipated boxing event promoted by the Triller app. Paul landed a monster right hand just a minute into the fight and the referee waved off the fight after Askren’s legs went wobbly. It was a solid performance by Paul, to be sure, and it’s the kind of big-name win that should set him up with another big name in his next outing. Whenever Paul is ready to step back into the boxing ring, then he’ll have a number of fighters waiting for him in it.

Taking to their social media, a number of fighters including Danis and Penn called out Paul.

It seems as though Paul has no shortage of opponents to pick from for his next fight. Even though so many people in the MMA community think he’s a joke and criticized him in the lead-up to this fight, no one can ignore the amount of money that Paul and Askren made, and it seems like a number of fighters are hoping to get their big payday against Paul. So far, Paul has proved to be a very tough opponent for everyone who has faced him in the ring, but there are a number of fighters who could give him a tough test on this list.

Who do you want to see Jake Paul box next out of the list of these fighters include Dillon Danis?
