JAKE Paul is launching his own men’s care brand to battle his long-term insecurity while he fights in the ring.
The YouTuber-turned-boxer has launched a line of body wash, sprays, and antiperspirant deodorant to be sold in Walmart.

Paul, 27, said, “Sweating has been a long-time insecurity of mine.
“If you know me, you know I’m a clean freak.
“I always want to smell fresh, but training in Puerto Rico’s humid climate makes it a real challenge.
“I needed a product that could keep up with my lifestyle — one that smells amazing but isn’t full of junk ingredients, and honestly, one that wasn’t from 2006.
“That’s why I started W… to create products for guys that will boost their confidence and smell amazing, but also don’t cost $20 for a stick of deodorant.”
Paul’s announcement comes off the back of his postponed bout against boxing legend Mike Tyson.
The controversial clash was set for July 20 in Texas but 57-year-old Tyson suffered a health scare.
Iron Mike had an ulcer flare up when flying from Miami to Los Angeles.
He was advised by doctors to avoid training and rest up – forcing the fight to be rescheduled.
Paul issued a statement after the disappointing postponement news.
He said, “”Obviously, devastating news.
“I’m heartbroken, speechless, gutted. You [Tyson] said you wanna do this in Q4, I’m ready.
“You just need a little bit of time, so I’m ready whenever you are.
“This is too big of an opportunity and I think this fight is going to change the world and I turn all my Ls into Ws and that’s a motto I live by.
“We’ve been working so hard over here in this camp.
“I just feel bad for everyone involved in this event, the undercard. The opportunity has been ripped from all of us.”
It will now take place on Friday, November 15.
Tyson said: “Although we had to postpone the fight, I will resume training shortly.
“”I am thankful to the medical staff that treated me and to MVP, Netflix, and AT&T Stadium for working diligently to find the best reschedule date for all parties.
“While we have a new date, the result will be the same no matter when we fight. Jake Paul is getting knocked out.”
