Jake Paul registered his third professional boxing win on Saturday night when he knocked out MMA fighter Ben Askren.

The 24-year-old Paul moved to 3-0 in his career, and now he is being talked about by several people who now want a piece of him.

“It’s been four months. I’ve been in training camp every day,” Paul said on Triller following the fight. “I deserved that s—. This is the craziest moment of my life.

“I told y’all I was going to do it in the first round. I told y’all I’m a real fighter. I don’t know how many times I’ve got to prove myself this is for real.”

When Kendall Gill played in the NBA for 15 seasons, he was never really known for being the kind of player who engaged in physical confrontations. Those days have changed.

Among the people who want to fight Paul next is former NBA star Kendall Gill, who went 4-0 as a boxer after his basketball career ended.

We’ll see if Paul responds back to him this time, since Gill tried to get his attention back in December as well.

Gill was taken No. 5 overall in the 1990 draft by the Hornets. He also played for the SuperSonics, Nets, Heat, Timberwolves, Bulls and Bucks during his 15-year career. For his career, he averaged 13.4 points, 4.1 rebounds and 3.0 assists in 966 games.
