The young Montreal Canadiens defenseman, Arber Xhekaj, faced another question about Jake Paul today.
Let’s just say it led to a rather unusual moment.
Asked moments ago about the possibility of fighting Jake Paul, Xhekaj responded:
Journalist to Xhekaj: «What would you do if Jake Paul challenged you to a fight?»
Xhekaj: «For $20 million, I’d go for it (laughs). But I’m probably too fresh for him!»

The fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson is still causing a stir in the Canadiens’ locker room
One thing’s for sure, we’re far from done hearing about it.
Let’s also recall what the rugged defensemen mentioned on Saturday, the day after the boxing match that took place live from Dallas, Texas.
Arber Xhekaj (also) wasn’t a big fan of the fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson:
«I was sitting in the box and told myself, we have to give the people a better show than last night (referring to the fight between Tyson and Paul)»
In any case, Mathieu Olivier and Arber Xhekaj definitely put on quite a show for those disappointed by the one between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul.
On another note, still regarding the recent press conferences at the Montreal Canadiens camp, here’s a statement from Jake-Evans:
He’ll try his best Phillip Danault impression!
What’s your prediction for tonight’s game between the Montreal Canadiens and the Edmonton Oilers?
