Jake Paul ‘ACCEPTS’ Gerwyn Price fight and says ‘name your price’ after darts star vowed to knock him out
@Source: thescottishsun.co.uk
GERWYN PRICE said Jake Paul ACCEPTED his boxing call out.
Price bragged in an interview with talkSPORT that he would knock YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul out with "one punch".
Asked for an update, Price said: "He's seen it, he's messaged me. He wrote back to me."
The Welshman, 40, then pulled out his phone and revealed a DM from Paul - bizarrely wanting a bout is Greece.
It allegedly read: "Come to Greece man just name a price."
The former darts world champion had not responded to the message and joked: "I was a bit scared! Nah, I need to get some training in."
Price is a former professional rugby player but the ex-hooker gave it up in 2014 to focus on darts.
In 2022, he was training for a charity boxing match but he later cancelled it on "medical advice."
But when probed about fighting Paul, he told talkSPORT in February: “I think it would just be one punch, and it would be all over.
“Out cold; it would be a waste of money for people to tune in.”

Paul is 11-1 in his pro boxing career, losing only to Tommy Fury by split-decision in 2023.
He most recently beat Mike Tyson in November after the heavyweight legend controversially came out of retirement at 58.
And Paul was recently in shock talks to fight Mexican superstar Canelo Alvarez, 34, in May in Las Vegas.
But Canelo pulled out to instead sign a deal with Saudi Arabia's Turki Alalshikh and Paul has instead turned his attention to Anthony Joshua.
He said on his podcast with boxer David Benavidez: "I want to fight Anthony Joshua - exclusive - because I know I will f***ing beat Anthony Joshua's ass.
"He doesn't have a chin, and he has no skill and he's stiff. I love you Anthony, we're friends, all this s*** but I want to fight you.
"I will beat Canelo, I will beat a lot of f***ing people."
Joshua, 35, and Paul, 28, then shared a phone call and teased a 2026 fight on social media.
