“Wants to chill my free speech” Jake Paul sues Eddie Hearn for over 100 million

As a seasoned gamer and observer of the boxing world, I find myself intrigued by this latest turn of events between Jake Paul and Eddie Hearn. Having followed both parties’ careers closely, I can’t help but feel a sense of deja vu – it seems like we’re back to another round in their ongoing feud.


Ever since Jake Paul started boxing, he hasn’t limited himself to just throwing punches. He’s also been involved in verbal exchanges with various athletes, legends, analysts, and promoters. Recently, another heated exchange has started between Paul and Eddie Hearn, the head of Matchroom Boxing, who organized Jake’s first professional match in the past.

Hearn vs. Paul

Following Paul’s initial bout, he and Hearn parted company, but lately, their journeys have intersected once more. Now, Hearn has voiced doubts about Paul’s abilities and labeled him as a “circus sideshow act.

In response, Jake asserted on platform X (previously known as Twitter), that Glenn Feldman allegedly accepted bribes to bias his decisions towards Matchroom boxers in specific fights.

Consequently, Hearn and Matchroom began suing Jake for $100 million in damages.

Currently, Jake Paul has taken a retaliatory action. He’s initiated a lawsuit as a response, with his legal representative arguing that this move from Hearn is an attempt at intimidation. The allegation is that Hearn aims to restrict Jake’s freedom of speech and muffle other critical voices within the boxing industry.

As per Jake’s statement, he aims to prevent Matchroom from instigating expensive and prolonged lawsuits that restrict the freedom of expression for journalists, media entities, and anyone discussing related subjects.

What do you think of Jake Paul’s countersuit? Is it justified, or just another outburst?
