00:00 We see Mike Tyson in the doc where he talks about
00:02 how you are helping to save boxing.
00:05 - I'm a fan of people that know how to put ashes in seats.
00:08 Those are the guys I look up to.
00:10 - What does that mean to you?
00:11 And how are you preparing for this fight with Nate Diaz
00:14 where he doesn't want to engage with you?
00:16 - Yeah, look, with Mike Tyson, it means the world.
00:20 You know, when one of the greatest boxing legends
00:24 of all time in the history of the sport is supporting me,
00:29 you know, saying that I'm saving the sport,
00:31 like what else do I need?
00:33 What other support do you need other than that?
00:35 And so it means the world.
00:37 And Uncle Mike's an amazing person.
00:41 And in terms of Nate Diaz,
00:44 I think this is just a massive fight,
00:46 regardless of the promotion, just because of our two names
00:50 and how many fans we both have.
00:52 He beats to his own drum and he can do whatever he wants,
00:55 but I'm used to having to carry all of these promotions
00:59 because these fighters don't really know how to promote,
01:03 which is probably why I'm the only fighter,
01:06 active fighter with a promotional company
01:07 that's actually doing anything.
01:09 - Jake Paul can fight.
01:10 - You are a YouTuber, you ain't a boxer, Nate.
01:13 - Is Jake Paul a boxer?
01:14 The truth will be revealed.
01:19 - How does it feel to prove people wrong
01:22 or at least show people that this is a real endeavor?
01:26 - Yeah, look, man, well, it's, I guess, the name of my story
01:31 like that's kind of what I've always been doing,
01:34 you know, since my peers in high school
01:37 first were ripping me down
01:40 and saying I would never accomplish anything,
01:42 making fun of me for making videos.
01:46 And you either have two options, you know,
01:50 let it fuel you or give up.
01:53 And I'm not gonna give up.
01:55 So that's not even an option.
01:57 So it actually just always has fueled me.
02:01 And, you know, rightfully so.
02:03 I don't mind the fact that people didn't understand
02:07 what it was that I was doing.
02:09 I'm used to being the odd one out.
02:10 I'm used to being not fitting in.
02:12 I'm used to being the unicorn in the room.
02:16 So I get when people don't see my vision
02:20 because most people don't have my vision.
02:22 And so I get that I'm an artist
02:24 and I'll paint that picture for everyone over time.
02:27 And with my mind and like what I'm capable of,
02:31 I'm going to accomplish everything that's in there.
02:34 And I see the painting before it's done,
02:37 but I have to show that to others.
02:39 And as I'm painting, they start to see it
02:43 and they respect it.
02:46 - So much of what we see in this movie
02:48 shows the genius of your promotion,
02:50 your promotional abilities.
02:52 How much of your life is constant promotion
02:55 and how much of it is really you?
02:58 - I am a marketer and promoter.
03:00 I guess like that's what's so innate about it.
03:04 That is my special gift and special ability
03:06 is like understanding audience,
03:09 understanding reach and understanding content
03:12 and how to give an audience a specific type of content
03:17 that they're going to like and enjoy and share.
03:22 - But Jake, how hard is it being the guy
03:24 who knows how to get under people's skin?
03:27 Like you have a innate ability to get under people's skin.
03:32 - Yeah, yeah.
03:34 I think that comes from like just being in high school
03:37 with my friends, like we would talk so much (beep)
03:41 to each other and would say the craziest things.
03:45 And like, that was just what we thought was fun and funny.
03:48 And sometimes things would get under your skin,
03:52 but I guess it's just like a part of who I am.
03:56 I don't know. I don't know.
03:59 I just like have fun doing it.
04:01 And to me, when other people like say crazy things to me,
04:06 I laugh at it.
04:08 Like I think it's hilarious when someone roasts me good
04:12 and it's just like fun for me.
04:14 I don't know, I don't really know what it is.
04:16 - Who next?
04:17 Is there anybody out there that you're gonna,
04:19 you're looking for next?
04:20 Like who's the pinnacle?
04:21 - Yeah, for me, I've said it since the beginning,
04:25 but I wanna fight Canelo.
04:26 - Have you reached out to him and told him that?
04:28 - My team's talked to his lawyer, yeah.
04:30 - So you're trying to get it done.
04:33 - Trying to get it done.
04:34 - All right, congrats to you.
04:35 I'm telling you, you've done it.
04:36 - Yeah, man.
04:37 I'm gonna continue to go on this journey
04:39 and prove more people wrong.
04:41 - Yeah, kudos to you.
04:42 You have done a hell of a job in changing the industry, man.
04:45 (upbeat music)
