Pittsburgh Steelers star Cam Heyward has provided his opinion on a potential Tyreek Hill vs Jake Paul bout.
In an interview with Bob Menery on the Fully Tilted Podcast, Hill said, "I think my first fight needs to be like Jake Paul or something like that. I don't think he (Paul) is as tough as he looks."
Hill confirmed that he grew up boxing and sees a potential career change into combat sports, saying, "I want to get in the cage, or I want to box. That's why I want to meet Dana White, I want to get in the cage."
Paul responded by saying, "You can play football. You can't play boxing. Tyreek will end up the same as Nate Robinson, turned into a meme. But if he wants to do it, we can do it."
Understandably, the news has captured the NFL world's attention. On his Not Just Football podcast, Heyward chimed in with his opinion. Heyward said, "I'm all for Tyreek wanting to box. But I want to see Jake Paul box a true fighter in his prime. Not someone starting. I don't even know if they're the same size. Tyreek's fast, but what weight level would this be fought at?"
