Jake Paul is no stranger to controversies, and neither are the 2024 Paris Olympics, apparently, as both parties have seen their names dragged through the mud recently after some interesting debacles.
Paris more recently due to the ongoing controversy surrounding the opening of the Olympic ceremonies, as some deemed one scene to be extremely controversial. The backlash for the Olympics only continued as two fighters were deemed eligible to participate in women’s boxing after failing tests, causing them to not be allowed to fight in the world championships.
One of these fights went insanely viral after Italian boxer Angela Carini faced off against Algerian boxer Imane Khelif during the 2024 Olympics. The fight was called off just 46 seconds in due to a punch thrown by Khelif.
The fight caused a massive online straw, so much so that it caught the attention of celebrity boxer Jake Paul, who was not impressed by the Olympic committee’s decision to allow the fight. Paul clarified his thoughts on X as he posted to the platform, stating, “This is sickening. This is a travesty. Doesn’t matter what you believe.”
