Paul and Rahman Jr. were scheduled to lock horns at Madison Square Garden in New York on August 6. The fight, however, failed to come to fruition as Rahman Jr. didn't adhere to the 200lbs weight limit initially agreed upon. Rahman Jr. and his team claimed he'd weigh in at 215lbs which later led to the fight being canceled, as was confirmed in an official statement by Paul's Most Valuable Promotions.

Refunds for all ticket and PPV purchases will be provided. Full statement below. https://t.co/thnjyjUEMT Rahman Jr. later shared a clip where he claimed that his body wouldn't allow him to make the 200lbs limit and that he's ready to fight Paul for the $5,000 minimum. Chael Sonnen, however, isn't buying into his claims. According to 'The American Gangster', Rahman Jr. was going to perform a dirty trick against Jake Paul had the fight not been canceled. Sonnen believes that Rahman Jr. wouldn't have pulled out of the fight despite failing to make weight and would've forced MVP to pay him the entire purse or refuse to fight on the night of the event. In a recently shared video on his YouTube channel, Sonnen said: "My guess is that he was going to come in, he was going to miss the weight, they were going to fine him and then and only then when the house is sold and the popcorn's being popped is when he reveals to them, 'Honor my purse or I don't walk through the curtain.'"

De La Hoya suggested that Paul join hands with his Golden Boy promotions and together they'll set up a blockbuster matchup against UFC star Nate Diaz. The Mexican promoter tweeted: "Sorry for your cancellation due to unprofessional fighters not making weight.
