Jake Paul offered Italian boxer Angela Carini a chance to fight on one of his undercards after her controversial Olympic bout against Imane Khelif.
Jake Paul offered promo services to Angela Carini of Italy
Jake Paul has extended his promotional support to Angela Carini, the Italian boxer who forfeited her Olympic match against Algerian competitor Imane Khelif after just 45 seconds. The decision came after Khelif, previously disqualified from the 2023 Women’s World Championships for failing to meet gender-related guidelines, landed a powerful punch that forced Carini to withdraw from the bout.
Jake took to social media to express his support for Carini and criticize the circumstances surrounding her Olympic exit. He posted, “To Angela Carini, although your dreams couldn’t come true today because of the crazy agendas that are at play in our world at the moment, I would love to offer you to fight on an MVP undercard, to show the world your talents on a fair platform and not against a man. Internet, help this find her.”
Paul’s company, Most Valuable Promotions [MVP], which he co-founded with business partner Nakisa Bidarian in 2021, has made significant strides in combat sports regarding women and their treatment. The firm focuses on brand building, content creation, promotion, and strategic advisory and has signed athletes like Amanda Serrano. It made history by co-producing the first female fight to headline at Madison Square Garden and frequently featuring Serrano as the co-main event or headliner of its own cards.
Angela Carini was defeated in 45 seconds by Imane Khelif
Controversy flared during Carini’s 145-lb Olympic matchup against Khelif following a powerful right-hand punch to Carini’s face, which led to an audible reaction from the crowd. Carini signaled for a timeout and retreated to her corner, where her coach attempted to fix her headgear, which had slid due to the impact. But Carini ultimately decided to withdraw from the match, citing severe pain and concern for her safety.
In a tearful post-fight interview, Carini explained her decision: “I wasn’t able to finish the match, I felt a strong pain in my nose. And I said to myself, ‘For the experience that I have and the maturity as a woman that I have, I hope my nation won’t take it badly. I hope my father won’t take it badly.’ But I stopped. I said stop for myself because it could have been the match of my lifetime, but I had to preserve my life as well in that moment, and I felt to do so.”
MVP promotions is home to Amanda Serrano
Khelif’s eligibility has been a contentious issue. She was previously disqualified from the Women’s World Championships due to elevated testosterone levels, although estrogen levels were never reported. Critics, including UFC contender Israel Adesanya and boxing star Claressa Shields, have argued that her participation in women’s boxing is unfair due to physiological differences.
Khelif has competed in the women’s division since her debut in 2018, where she won by unanimous decision. Despite the backlash, Khelif has received support from former opponents, including UK veteran Amy Broadhurst, who has faced Khelif.
She defended Khelif on X, stating, “Have a lot of people texting me over Imane Khelif. Personally, I don’t think she has done anything to ‘cheat’. I think it’s the way she was born & that’s out of her control. The fact that she has been beaten by 9 females before says it all.”
