Jake Paul rode a chariot into the ring Saturday night to face Mike Perry in an eight-round cruiserweight bout. Hie mode of transportation continued a Roman Empire theme he began while promoting the fight earlier in the night.
A social media post hours earlier showed him in the same costume he wore while riding the chariot, one that made him look like he was going into battle for the Roman Empire — aside from the color-coordinating chrome car behind him.

"Fear no man. Fear no war," Paul's post on X read. "Fear only God who rides with me into battle tonight. I'm his servant to show the world what's possible when you believe.
"In 4 years I've accumulated more skill than a man who's been fighting 15."
While Paul’s costume might look silly, the words in his post are no joke. Earlier this week, Paul said without irony that he is “on a mission from God.’’
He referenced the talent of Perry in his post as well, calling him his "most dangerous opponent yet." The main card of the pay-per-view fight, which will stream on DAZN, was scheduled to begin at 9 p.m. ET.
