Jake Paul is mocked after his performance at the King's League World Cup Nations final

Since making the transition to the world of martial arts, Jake Paul has become one of the biggest faces in the industry.

While many rail against his stardom, there is no denying what he has achieved, with the polarizing character recently fighting Mike Tyson in front of 72,300 spectators.

However, it is fair to say that the 27-year-old has not developed the same level of fame in the football world.

On Saturday, Paul attended the King's League World Cup Nations final in Turin, Italy.

Despite his best efforts to get the crowd talking, the spectators in attendance gave him very little in return, making it a somewhat awkward experience for the fighter.

He then had the honor of pressing the button that sent the ball flying and the match started.

Naturally, KSI fans saw the appearance as a great opportunity to mock the man who shared such a fierce rivalry with their hero.

One person wrote: “Jake Paul kicked off the Kings League World Cup final in Italy and the crowd went silent,” while another added: “The people in the stadium don't care.”

A third raged: “He doesn't understand the sport. What is he doing there?”
