“Hey New York, shut the f***** up, New York. Boo yourselves,” Paul fired back at the crowd. “You’re just like Mike Tyson – you were good 20 years ago. F*** you, dumba** Democratic city.”
The controversial remarks came with New York Mayor Eric Adams also in attendance at the event, though his response to Paul’s comments was not publicly recorded.
Jake Paul, known for his outspoken support of former President Donald Trump, has previously made headlines for his politically charged statements. Just last month, he claimed that God had intervened to save Trump from an assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. “I believe that God stepped in and saved him… We need this guy to come back in and make America great again,” Paul said at the time.
The YouTuber-turned-boxer further added saying, “And I’m not even gonna say, like, it’s Democrat-Republican, what does it matter? It’s the people who are running the government now, the path that they were leading us to was gonna be catastrophic and terrible. And I think God really intervened, like, ‘We need this guy right now. Everyone needs to flip sides. We can’t have a close election – we need a landslide. We need this guy to come back in and make America great again.'”
Paul’s latest outburst is likely to stir more controversy, adding to the tension surrounding his upcoming fight with Tyson. The event has already drawn significant attention, not just for the matchup, but for the drama that continues to unfold outside the ring.
