Jake revealed he had to sell the mansion to move out of Los Angeles. The star also reiterated the support he’s received from his team, friends, and family on the issue. He said, “but me, my team, my friends, my parents, everyone thinks it’s the right decision.”
Jake has stated that he’s leaving his home in LA to pursue a career where he’s a “legitimate pro fighter”. He revealed that there are so many distractions in Los Angeles that could potentially dampen his ability to go far in his new-found career. “Being in Los Angeles, there’s so many distractions, there’s so much going on, and it doesn’t really allow me to focus on training,” he said.
