Jake Paul has been warned.
Ben Askren is gearing up for his boxing match against Jake Paul on April, and he now has custom-made training equipment to give him some extra motivation. As he unveiled on social media, the former MMA champion received a heavy bag that has his opponent’s face printed on it.
“Oh my god. This is glorious,” Askren said. “I’m going to hang this up in the academy and the kids are going to go nuts.”

Jake Paul has been officially put on notice, and his previous threat just seems to be more real now.
“He’s going to think ‘wow, there’s a lot easier ways for me to make money in life. I kind of thought this was a good idea, I thought this was cool and now maybe I’m thinking twice about this’,” Askren told MMA Fighting.
