Jake Paul says the price for a Canelo Alvarez fight is $200 million, and he claims he has the money ready.
In a video shared by Happy Punch from Paul’s Kick livestream, Paul said Alvarez wanted $200 million and pushed him to sign for a boxing matchup that has been teased, reported, dismissed, revived, and dragged through the circus more than once.
“This is me talking to Canelo,” Paul said.
Paul then stated the number he says Alvarez asked for.
“How much money did he want?” Paul said. “Canelo wanted 200 million.”
Paul followed by telling Alvarez he could meet that demand.
“Canelo, I have the 200 million dollars for you,” Paul said. “Easy money. Jake Paul versus Canelo. Let’s get it done.”

Paul Says Canelo Told Him He Was Interested On The Phone
Paul is listed with a 12-2 boxing record, including seven knockouts. Alvarez is listed at 63-3-2, with 39 knockouts, and has won major world titles across multiple weight classes from light middleweight to light heavyweight.
The matchup has been around the boxing rumor mill before. Paul was previously linked to a Canelo fight before Terence Crawford entered the picture, and later claimed Alvarez backed out after a signed agreement. This time, Paul said the fan demand is already there.
“This is what the fans have been waiting for,” Paul said. “This is the biggest fight that can possibly be made in boxing.”
Paul also claimed Alvarez gave him a positive answer during a phone call.
“Canelo said he’s down on the phone,” Paul said. “So we’re going to make it happen. I have the 200 million and I think that’s going to be the next fight.”
The video does not include Alvarez confirming the agreement. It shows Paul making the claim, naming the price, and calling for the contract.
“So sign the contract, Canelo,” Paul said. “Much respect to you. Let’s make the biggest fight in boxing happen. That’s the exclusive Kick livestream. Jake Paul versus Canelo. Official, official, official. You heard it here first.”
