Jake Paul offers $15 million to Will Smith and Chris Rock to fight a boxing match

Will Smith and Chris Rock have been trending for the past few days. Both of them were involved in an ugly incident during the Oscars 2022. It all started when the comedian made a joke about the Hancock-star's wife.

During the ceremony, Smith went on to the stage and slapped Rock. While people initially perceived it to be some kind of a prank, they realized that it wasn't as the Hollywood superstar even asked Rock to not utter his wife's name. The whole world was shocked to see this live on television.

To add fuel to the fire, Jake Paul has offered 15 million dollars to Smith and Rock to have a professional fight. The Youtuber-turned-fighter took to Twitter to announce the same. When actor-comedian Sal Vulcano (Also known as The Impractical Jokers) asked how much money would Paul offer for a fight between the two celebrities, he replied that he would pay $15 million.

"I got $15m for Will Smith and $15m for Chris Rock ready to go. Let’s do it in August on my undercard," read Jake Paul's Tweet. This instantly went viral in no time as fans loved the idea. At the same time, some felt that it was too unrealistic a task to happen. Paul then added another Tweet where he asked someone to help him get in touch with Smith's boxing representative.

"Someone get me on the phone with Will Smiths boxing representative asap" read the Tweet. As far as the incident at the Oscars is concerned, then Rock was anchoring the 94th Academy award. He then joked about Jada Pinkett Smith’s baldness.

This didn't sit well with Smith who went on stage and slapped the comedian. In the meanwhile, the actor also won his maiden Oscar and went on to apologise to the academy. He later apologised to Chris Rock as well. It will be exciting to see if Smith or Rock responds to Paul's offer.
