Even before Jake Paul's dominant victory over boxing legend Mike Tyson on November 15, Canelo Álvarez had made his stance clear regarding a potential matchup with the social media star turned boxer. Paul defeated Tyson in a lackluster bout in which the boxing legend showed his age and was unable to reverse time.

KSI holds a win over Jake Paul’s brother, Logan, and that would likely serve as the backdrop for a potential fight between the online masters. The Londoner has not fought since he was controversially beaten by Tommy Fury at the backend of 2023, but a return against Paul would do huge business.
