Jake Paul is one of the most controversial people on the planet. While many still consider Paul a YouTuber, his step into the world of boxing has certainly been an interesting one for fans of the influencer.
He started his professional boxing career with a fight against fellow Youtuber AnEsonGib, where he would win with a first-round TKO. His latest fight came against the legendary Mike Tyson, who was nearly 60 years old, with Paul coming out on top of the controversial bout.
Most of the internet may hate Jake and his brother Logan, but there is no doubt that the two are insanely athletic. Logan proves his athleticism with the WWE, and now Jake is adding to his resume with a decent NFL-quality 40-yard dash time.
Jake and his betting company, Betr, took to X to post a video of his 40-yard dash. In the video, Logan and a few of his other friends timed Jake’s dash, and with little to no effort, Jake shattered the expectations of what some thought.

In the video, Jake Paul runs a stunning 4.74-second 40-yard dash. Jake then proceeds to call out the NFL, claiming that he wants to get signed by a team, strap on the pads, and hit his picks. Fans in the comments were none too pleased with his comments.
“Would love to do an Oklahoma drill against him,” went one user.
“Hell no. That was slow as hell,” commented another.
“Please, there are linemen that are bigger and faster than him,” added another.
“Not buyin it,” went another fan.
While Paul may be enhancing his speed via video editing, there’s no telling how fast he is unless the guy attends the combine, which he won’t be doing anytime soon. Odds are that he won’t be making the NFL in this lifetime, but crazier things have happened.
