‘He’s going to risk getting hurt like that?’ - Chuck Liddell shoots down boxing match vs. Jake Paul

Jake Paul has a fresh new Showtime contract and a reported fight against Tyron Woodley coming up next. Before that bombshell news broke, Chuck Liddell was asked if he’d take on Paul.

The former UFC light heavyweight champion was interviewed by TMZ about a potential showdown with the social media celebrity turned 3-0 professional boxer. Liddell was known for his boxing and knockout power at the height of his career, and obviously the 51-year-old believes he still has the skills to take down someone who’s not even half his age.

“He’s not good enough to fight me,” Liddell said.
