Rick Ross says he’ll offer $10M to anyone who will fight Jake Paul

Rapper Rick Ross said he’s willing to part with an eye-watering sum of $10 million if someone is willing to take on an undefeated Jake Paul in the ring.

The “Money In The Grave” hitmaker revealed his desperate bid to make the next fight happen as he claims people are “afraid” to take on the YouTuber-turned-boxer.

Paul, who is currently 5-0 in boxing, recently had a string of bouts that have all been canceled for one reason or another.

Taking to Instagram Monday, Ross posted a selfie with pal Paul as he offered up his own cash.

“Since everyone seems to be afraid to fight @jakepaul I’m down to put another 10 million on top to make the right match happen,” he wrote. “What fight would you want to see?”

Paul’s most recent bout with Hasim Rahman Jr, son of former heavyweight champion Hasim Rahman, fell through following a weight dispute.

The bout would have represented Paul’s first against a professional boxer since he started his career.

It’s also the second time the scheduled bout was forced to change plans. Paul originally had been scheduled to fight Tommy Fury, but had to pivot after Fury, a UK citizen, was denied entry to the US.

That led to Rahman, with whom Paul had previously sparred, taking the fight on short notice.

“He’s called me a b—h in our sparring sessions,” Paul told The Post ahead of the planned fight.

“He’s said he’s gonna beat my ass, he’s calling me a YouTuber, he says I’m not gonna make it far in professional boxing. There’s beef there. This is personal. I’ve always wanted this fight since we had that sparring session, since he disrespected me.”
