Nico Ali Walsh Rejects Jake Paul Fight Offer

Nico Ali Walsh, grandson of Muhammad Ali, revealed he rejected a multi-million dollar contract from MVP Promotions to fight YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul. Instead, Ali Walsh chose to focus on what he considers 'real boxing,' securing a victory over Sona Akale despite a dislocated shoulder. Ali Walsh emphasized his commitment to legacy over money, criticizing the 'circus league' of boxing that he associates with Paul. Paul responded by accusing Ali Walsh of avoiding the fight and benefitting from his famous last name. The bout with Akale was a rematch, with Ali Walsh avenging his previous defeat by unanimous decision. Ali Walsh also addressed disparaging remarks from Teofimo Lopez, stating his dedication to the sport and legacy over fame and money.
