A lot of people want to punch out YouTube star Jake Paul, and that includes former Major League Baseball superstar Jose Canseco.
Canseco wants to set up a boxing match with Paul, who recently knocked out ex-NBAer Nate Robinson and a lot of it stems from Paul's failed relationship with Canseco's daughter, Josie.

"He seemed like a very nice young kid — to me, seemed a bit on the arrogant side. But, then all of the sudden they broke up," Canseco toldSports Talk Chicago onAM 1530 WCKG.
"I gotta give you the final details, they will come up … but you know, it left me with a little bit of a bad taste in my mouth."
Once Canseco, 31 years Paul's senior mentioned boxing, Paul had a brutal response on Twitter, saying: "No problem. I love to smash Cansecos."
That got Canseco fuming. The former American League MVP and World Series champion said he'd train with Floyd Mayweather and vowed this was no joke.
"If I get in the ring with him, I'm going to use 270 pounds, get him in the corner and it's gonna be simple — blunt force trauma. A lot of power," Canseco said.

JOHNNY FOOTBALL IS BACK
After flameouts in both the NFL and CFL, Johnny Manziel appears to be back.
The quarterback recently signed a deal with the new Fan Controlled Football League.
It is set to debut on Feb. 13 and the plan is for Manziel to have a microphone and live camera streaming from his helmet.
Manziel will play for the Zappers and said he's mostly doing this for fun. The FCP is a full-contact league with tons of fan involvement.
Fans determine things like the uniforms, logo and play-calling and it's played on a 50-yard long field with 10-yard end zones.
Rajon Rondo and a friend in an alleged incident. TMZ screengrab
NBA star Rajon Rondo is being sued over an incident in a parking garage involving himself, his girlfriend and another woman, TMZ reported.
In a video TMZ acquired, the long-time Boston Celtics player, currently with the Atlanta Hawks, appears to nudge a woman into a car and watches while his girlfriend punches her in the face.
The video was shot in July in Los Angeles and the woman, Toktam Jorshari, filed a lawsuit saying things escalated from an argument about a parking space at an apartment complex.
Jorshari alleged in the lawsuit that Rondo's Rolls-Royce SUV was parked in a spot reserved for the disabled and Jorshari parked beside it.
Jorshari alleged Rondo got angry, saying she parked too close and that he cursed at her before things got physical.
Jorshari claimed she suffered injuries and was suing for assault and battery, infliction of emotional distress and conspiracy. She is seeking damages in excess of $1 million.
Rondo's lawyer Mark D. Baute told TMZ in a statement: "Mr. Rondo tried to separate them and keep them away from each other, he did not push anyone."Baute said Jorshari didn't wear a mask, refused to move her car and immediately hired a lawyer, adding Rondo had a broken thumb at the time.
A wild soccer brawl in Brazil. SporTV screengrab
Soccer is usually one of the least physical sports one can play, especially in Brazil, where dazzling plays are the norm.
But one teenager there went full on Karate Kid and started a huge brawl by delivering a flying kick recently.
Fluminense and Athletico Paranaense were playing for the U-17 Brazilian title when Fluminense's Joao Neto tried to create a scoring chance late in the game.
An opponent, known as Ataide took Neto down hard and Neto wasn't pleased. He got up and shoved his opponent, which raised the ire of Athletico's Joao Gabriel. He delivered the flying blow to Neto's face with his metal cleats.
Other players stomped on the fallen Neto and a wild brawl ensued. To make matters worse, Gabriel ran away!
Nine players were reportedly sent off from the game for bad behaviour and Neto had a clear wound on his face.
Fluminense won the match.
