Jake Paul has been challenged by Claressa Shields
She believes that Paul would not be able to beat her in a fight
Paul, 27, recently saw his highly anticipated clash with Mike Tyson be postponed until November 5.
The fight at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas was pushed back after Tyson suffered a health scare.
Despite Paul trying to make the best of his boxing career, Shields has not been impressed by his skills in the ring.
She believes that he would not be able to beat her in a fight and has challenged him to a “scrap”.
Shields, 29, told TMZ Sports: “The offer is always up there if Jake Paul wanna scrap with me.
“I don’t think that he’s that good of a boxer.
“I’m never ever going to say or even feel that Jake Paul can beat me in a boxing match because he can’t.”
It is not the first time Shields has called out Paul for a fight.
Four years ago, she claimed she would “whoop” his “ass” even if she weighed less than him.
She said: “I, Claressa Shields, will whoop Jake Paul’s ass.
“He can come in the ring weighing 180 pounds, and I will come weighing 168, and I will beat the s*** out of him!”
Shields is recognised as the best fighter women’s boxing has to offer.
She has been on a winning streak since turning pro after claiming Gold medals at the London and Rio de Janeiro Olympic games.
She has won titles across multiple weight categories and is aiming to progress further.
She is set to fight for the WBC heavyweight championship against Vanessa Lepage-Joanisse on July 27.
