Nicknamed "The Rhino," Bourland is a former Golden Gloves champion with 19 pro fights under his belt. 

Bourland has a career record of 17-2.

Paul has made Puerto Rico home in recent years, crediting the island for his boxing success and saying he’s been able to train more diligently and lock in more easily.

But he didn’t exactly have much of a home ring advantage at Distrito T-Mobile in San Juan.

Plenty of Rhino supporters were in the crowd, some chanting "F--- Jake Paul" when he entered the stage.

So Paul, a master of the troll, egged them on in response. When asked by reporter Ariel Helwani about his emotions, he chanted his response.

"F--- the Rhino," he sang several times.

Bourland supporters responded with a "F—- Jake Paul" chant.

But Paul had the final word.

"I'm sick of these dumba-- rhinos walking around this motherf---ing island. Tomorrow, the rhinos are going extinct. I promise you that."

JAKE PAUL IS ‘BASICALLY A NEVER-ENDING MACHINE’ FOR THIS REASON

At Thursday’s press conference, Paul even joked about the nickname, saying Bourland didn’t "embody the true rhino spirit" after Bourland said he is not vegan.

At that point, Helwani asked Bourland if he felt Paul respects him.

"It don't matter," Bourland replied.

Paul is coming off a fight that didn't last a single round. On Dec. 15, he knocked out Andre August and waved goodbye to him on the mat. That fight improved his professional record to 8-1.

Saturday will mark Bourland's first fight since Sept. 17, 2022.

Biden admin shredded for referring to illegal immigrants as ‘newcomers’: 'Not serious people'

Congressional representatives and conservative commentators mocked the Biden administration for referring to those illegally crossing the border as "newcomers," arguing it is the latest of many euphemisms for illegal immigrants.

In a fact sheet distributed by the White House press office to advocate for the bipartisan border agreement President Biden has endorsed, officials pointed out that the bill includes $1.4 billion "for cities and states who are providing critical services to newcomers."

This was scorched by the official House Republicans account on X, writing, the "Biden White House is now referring to illegal immigrants as ‘newcomers.’ Joe Biden is not serious about stopping the illegal immigration into the United States. This is a catastrophe by design."

This post went viral on social media, and multiple public figures roasted the Biden administration’s rhetoric. 

"We're witnessing the planned and controlled destruction of our nation at the hands of our own leaders," former NCAA swimmer and women's sports activist Riley Gaines wrote.

"From illegal immigrants to migrants to ‘newcomers.’ It is all an attempt to normalize this invasion," media personality and radio host Lisa Boothe wrote.

"Biden Admin calls illegal immigrants ‘newcomers.’ California Gov. and politicians call homeless ‘the unhoused,’ and ‘clients,’" Katy Grimes, the Editor in Chief of the California Globe wrote. "What do they call US citizens - the people paying for their subversion?"

WHITE HOUSE CALLS FOR SANCTUARY CITIES TO COOPERATE WITH ICE AMID FUROR OVER ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT CRIMES

Many congressional representatives and political figures slammed White House leadership as well.

‘ILLEGAL’ – Forbidden by law. ‘ALIEN’ – Terminology in Title 8 of U.S. Code to describe a person who is not a citizen or national of the United States," Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Fla., wrote. "If a noncitizen enters the United States unlawfully & without U.S. authorization, they are by definition, an ‘ILLEGAL ALIEN.’"

"How many more ‘newcomers’ will you welcome in to murder Americans?" Rep. Keith Self, R-Texas., asked.

"Wholly unserious," the press office for Rep. Cammack, R-Fla., wrote.

"Newcomers? The flood of illegals coming across our southern border are breaking the laws of the United States and many have been found to be known terrorists," Rep. Robert Aderholt, R-Ala., wrote. "Let’s close the borders and enforce the laws of the land. Biden isn’t serious about the crisis at the border."

"These are not serious people," Former acting DHS Secretary Chad Wolf wrote. "The American people want solutions, not the aggressive use of a thesaurus."

"Just a reminder that the illegal ‘newcomers’ that ‘qualify’ include individuals who entered our country ILLEGALY and evaded detection for 14 days," Rep. Bill Posey, R-Fla., wrote. "It also provides MORE taxpayer dollars for cities who have already received and spent BILLIONS aiding illegal immigrants."
