Roy Jones Jr. is throwing a new challenge into the ring—literally. The boxing legend recently suggested the idea of teaming up with fellow heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis for a tag-team match against Jake and Logan Paul.
Speaking to Covers.com, Jones shared his enthusiasm for taking on the Paul brothers in a unique crossover event when asked about the possibility of the match.
“I would most definitely,” Jones said. “That idea sounds great to me. I’d probably choose Lennox Lewis as my partner. Lennox is a big heavyweight, and both those brothers are big heavyweights. Lennox was a heavyweight champion, and I was a heavyweight champion. But I was never a true heavyweight. So if I’m going to fight two heavyweights, why not give me a heavyweight, too?”
Jake Paul is already rumored to be squaring off against Jones Jr. in his next boxing match, although nothing has been officially announced. The younger Paul is fresh off a win against Mike Tyson, a match Jones called from the commentary booth, which only adds fuel to the speculation about their potential clash.
Meanwhile, Logan Paul is set to return to WWE action on January 6 as Monday Night Raw kicks off its Netflix run, ensuring the Paul brothers remain the talk of both the sports and entertainment worlds.
This potential tag-team showdown could be one for the ages, blending the worlds of boxing and entertainment like never before. With Roy Jones Jr. pitching the idea and Jake and Logan Paul always ready to make headlines, it feels like the perfect storm for a spectacle. Whether this match becomes reality or just stays a wild “what if,” one thing is certain—the buzz around it isn’t dying down anytime soon.
