BUCHAREST, ROMANIA: Andrew Tate, the controversial influencer, has frequently expressed his confidence in being 'invincible' in any fight. Nevertheless, during a podcast conversation featuring Adin Ross and guest Jake Paul, Tate unveiled the reasons behind his decision to steer clear of a much-anticipated, multi-million-dollar bout with Paul.

Tate has consistently demonstrated his backing for Paul on numerous occasions.

He has even openly disclosed his preference for 'The Problem Child' Paul over his older brother, Logan Paul, citing Jake's superior fighting abilities.

Andrew Tate reveals reason behind avoiding bout with Jake Paul

During a discussion on an episode of the 'Emergency' podcast featuring Ross and guest star Paul, Tate recounted a past instance when he had called out Paul.

He mentioned that the occasion was around the time when Paul had initially challenged Conor McGregor, approximately 4 to 5 years ago.

Tate recollected conveying his willingness to fight Paul then too. He acknowledged that back then, Paul didn't possess the same level of recognition as he does now.

Since then, he has consistently emphasized to the public that he thinks Paul is one of the finest YouTube boxers and a worthy opponent.

But, even as Tate praised the YouTuber's boxing prowess, he also knew how to express his confidence about emerging victorious against all challengers in a fight.

However, given his ongoing legal predicament, Tate expressed doubt about the likelihood of a match taking place, noting his inability to even leave his residence much due to these legal circumstances.

Tate said, "There was a time where I called out Jake Paul… It’s when Jake first called out Conor [McGregor], I think this was like 4-5 years ago. I said, ‘Jake I’ll fight you.’"

"I remember saying it to him and at the time I wasn’t nearly as known as I’m now," he said, adding, 'Jake, I believe is the best YouTube Boxer."

"I believe he can beat them all and I think he’s training very hard and a fight against Jake will be a real fight and I do believe that he’s working hard in the gym and he’s more of a boxer than he is a YouTuber now. I don’t think we’re going to fight. Especially, due to my legal situation now. I can’t even leave my house," Tate complained.
