CLEVELAND, OHIO: Jake Paul began his online career on Vine before moving to YouTube, where he was dragged down by controversies and harshly condemned for his attention-grabbing videos.

He persisted though and eventually entered the world of boxing. However, he undoubtedly puts himself at risk when he fights since boxing is a risky sport. Paul recently revealed his mother's opinion of his risky career line,

What does Jake Paul’s mother think about his son?

Jake Paul just made an appearance on 'Hotboxin' With Mike Tyson' podcast by the legendary boxer. In the podcast episode, Mike Tyson's co-host questioned him about his mother's opinion regarding his involvement in the sport.

He asked, "Does your mom go through anxiety watching you fight?" Paul began by saying, "Yeah she's like–" as Tyson, the legendary boxer, interrupted him right away by bringing up his most recent fight with Diaz, jokingly adding to the question, “Did she think Nate was gonna kick your ass?”

Paul retorted that his parents were worried about him even if they didn't believe he would lose. He mentioned "the s**t talk" and the build-up that occurs before a fight, saying his mother doesn't like it. He did, however, also say that she understands his passion for the game.

“She doesn’t love all that, but she knows this is what I love to do and she knows how hard I work and how prepared I am. So that gives her that safety feeling. But at the end of the day, you are watching someone you love getting hit in the face,” Jake Paul said.

Even though his mother doesn't seem to be a huge lover of the sport, it seems that she is quite appreciative of the effort he makes to improve.

Logan Paul, Janko, and Mike Majlak have co-hosted Logan Paul's 'Impaulsive' podcast since its launch in 2018. However, Logan Paul seemed to make fun of Janko's religious convictions in the latter half of 2022.

George Janko has commented on the sibling conflict and highlighted that the Paul brothers should not engage in conflict with one another.



 

Janko stated, “All the people that you look at — your brand managers, your managers, your camera guy — all those people were not there when you guys were sharing each others' first birthdays, fifth birthdays, sixth birthdays, high school... that's family.”

He added, “You can't get rid of your family. So, keep it between you guys. You guys love each other. I know you guys love each other.”

He concluded, "Never, ever, ever forget that you guys, at the end of the day, you guys came through the same bloodline. Don't let this world tear you guys apart."
