Photo: Jake Paul / Instagram   Jake Paul has become one of the biggest names in boxing, especially after his recent fight against boxing legend Mike Tyson .

Photo: Chael Sonnen / Instagram Chael Sonnen , former UFC fighter and current analyst, thinks professional boxers now challenging Jake Paul are only interested in his fame and success.

Sonnen criticized boxers now calling Paul out, saying they didn’t want to fight him before he became a star. “These boxers who suddenly found their courage should be ashamed,” Sonnen said. “They didn’t want to fight him when he was starting out.

Alvarez, however, is the reigning super middleweight champion with 62 wins and is widely considered one of the best fighters in the world.
