Jake Paul vs. Ben Askren fight: Three biggest storylines to follow in cruiserweight boxing match
CBSN
The two men are set to throw down on Saturday night in a unique PPV from Atlanta
Triller returns to pay-per-view on Saturday with another celebrity-driven boxing card. In the main event from Atlanta's Mercedes-Benz Stadium, YouTube star Jake Paul will look to improve to 3-0 as a professional boxer when he faces former UFC star Ben Askren. The event is certainly appealing to a different crowd than the standard boxing card, but Paul has proven to be nothing if not a big draw. He has brings tons of controversy from his time as a Disney Channel star to YouTube influencer, and during his short career as a boxer, he has tried to call out big names ranging from UFC megastar Conor McGregor to UFC president Dana White. Instead of McGregor, Paul will face Askren, who retired from the UFC in 2019. It's an odd fight, but one that is going to draw plenty of interest. With that in mind, let's take a look at three of the storylines to watch when Paul and Askren throw down in Atlanta.More Related News
