Actor Will Smith was in the headlines very recently for his controversial stunt during the 94th Academy Awards. Comedian Chris Rock was hosting the Gala event. As the host made a joke about the appearance of Jada Pinkett Smith, Will Smith’s wife, the actor walked on the stage and slapped the comedian in the face. Millions of viewers remained a witness to the incident as the event was being broadcasted globally.

The action on part of Will Smith did not go down well with a major section of the viewers. They found it unwanted and worrisome.  Boxing sensation and You Tuber Jake Paul have offered to organize a match between the two. As the video of the unprecedented event went viral and reached viewers globally, Sal Vulcano, the actor-comedian took to his official Twitter handle and asked his followers to guess how much Jake Paul would offer for a fight between Will Smith and Chris Rock.

Vulcano posted on Twitter- “Over/Under on how much Jake Paul is gonna offer Chris Rock and Will Smith for a boxing PPV?”

Jake Paul was quick to respond to the Tweet. He replied with– “I got $15 m for Will Smith and $15m for Chris Rock ready to go. Let’s do it in August on my undercard.” He followed up this Tweet with another one where he urged his fans to help him get in touch with Smith’s boxing representative.

Speaking of the incident that sparked so much controversy, Chris Rock, while hosting the Oscars made jokes about the appearance of Will Smith’s wife. During one of his monologues, he referred to Jada Pinkett Smith’s baldness and said that he is looking forward to seeing her in GI Jane 22 in the title role.

This joke really annoyed actor Will Smith and he walked straight to Chris Rock and slapped him on his face. He returned back to his seat shouting at Rock, “Keep my wife’s name out of your f****ng mouth.” He was soon back on stage, however, this time for the right reason. He received his maiden Oscar Award in the Best Actor category and apologized to the academy during his speech.
