YouTube star-turned-boxer Jake Paul announced that he’s soon returning to the ring against an as-yet-unannounced opponent.
Jake Paul is one of the most prolific influencer-boxers out there. Boasting a 7-1 record with 4 KOs, Paul has shaken up the boxing world in a big way, even earning praise from the likes of Mike Tyson over the years.
After a streak of victories against professional athletes and fellow influencers, Paul suffered his very first loss against British boxer and reality TV star Tommy Fury earlier this year. However, he was able to make a comeback against Nate Diaz in August, who he defeated by KO in an explosive win.
Now, Jake is returning to the boxing ring to close out the year. Here’s everything we know about this match so far.
