Nico Ali Walsh criticizes Jake Paul after Tyson defeat and rejects fight offer
Muhammad Ali's grandson, Nico Ali Walsh, criticized Jake Paul after his recent victory over Mike Tyson, calling Paul an "embarrassment" to boxing. The fight, which saw Tyson, 58, lose by unanimous decision, drew significant viewership but upset many fans. Nico Ali Walsh rejected a lucrative fight offer from Paul, stating it was beneath the Ali name. He emphasized the importance of pride over money, despite the offer reportedly exceeding $3 million. Rasheda Ali, Nico's mother, expressed that her father, Muhammad Ali, would have been "mortified" by the fight's nature, despite recognizing the financial gains for boxers today. She noted that boxers in her father's era fought for survival, unlike today's lucrative matches.
