Jake Paul takes things seriously.
Last month, Paul posted on social networks that he “asked my team to vigorously pursue anyone who invented lies on my boxing career”.
Well, a representative of Paul confirmed the information according to which the Youtuber boxer hired Big Shot’s lawyer, Alex Spiro.

“I was retained by Mr. Paul to continue a legal compensation for the damage he suffered,” Spiro said in a statement to PK Press Club Digital. “If someone uses his public soap box to hurt him and sport with lies, there will be consequences.”
“The declarations are categorically false and damaging to Mr. Paul, his partners and the sport as a whole,” the most precious promotions (MVP) told PK Press Club Digital. “The reputation and value of Jake as an adhesive will be protected with all the strength of the law.”
Spiro represented Elon Musk and defended Aaron Hernandez during his double homicide affair, in which he was acquitted.
The co-founder of the MVP, Nakisa Bidarian, said on social networks that Piers Morgan could “count” Bidarian pursuing him after the Talk-Show animator said that the fighting was “staged”.

“This is one thing to say:” You are not a good boxer. “This is another thing to say:” You fight older guys. “But when you say that the fights are staged, aka era, then you have brought us off, Bidarian told PK Press Club Digital in a recent interview. “You destroy the value for its brand, for the MVP brand and what we defend, which is the integrity of sport.
“You actually attack the California State Athletic Commission which supervised this event (Paul against Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.). Then you say that we risk going to the federal prison for organizing events.
“Each Jake Paul fight was sanctioned by a sports commission,” added Bidarian. “Each Jake Paul fight has had sports betting available on this subject. Each Jake Paul fight has been with a great media partner. To make someone say that one of Jake’s fights is something other than fights sanctioned by professionals with clear rules, is ridiculous.”
Calls on rigged fighting increased strongly after Paul fought Mike Tyson. At the time, Bidarian told PK Press Club Digital that Everything was legitimate.

Paul improved at 12-1 in his career with his last victory against Chavez Jr. The fight also led him to be ranked 14th in the WBA Cruiserweight ranking, which makes him eligible for a title fight.
