Undisputed light heavyweight champion Artur Beterbiev recently doubled down on his fight offer to Jake Paul and made it clear that he was serious. He appears to be interested in fighting the YouTuber-turned-boxer, especially considering Paul's performance against Mike Tyson last Friday.

Following the win, Paul expressed his interest in becoming a world champion and claimed that other top boxers like Canelo Alvarez now needed him. The comments caught Beterbiev's attention, who issued a challenge and even offered 'The Problem Child' an undisputed light heavyweight title shot. Although he acknowledged the challenge by reposting it on X, to showcase how his career has changed, the 27-year-old American didn't answer.

Beterbiev took notice of 'The Problem Child's' silence and doubled down on his challenge. Paul's toughest challenge so far has been Tommy Fury, who earned a decision win to hand the Cleveland native his lone career loss. Beterbiev mentioned that he believes it's time for Paul to accept a serious challenge and urged him to give him an answer:

"After four years it's time to have serious challenges. Didn't notice your acceptance or rejection. So what are we gonna do?"
