Look, I know as well as you do that Jake Paul’s boxing record has not always been against opponents in the prime of their careers.<\/p>\n
His first fight against YouTuber AnEsonGib was awkward and ugly, while ex-basketball player Nate Robinson and MMA fighters Ben Askren, Tyron Woodley (twice) and veteran Anderson Silva, almost 50, did not provide much resistance.<\/p>\n
Paul then lost against the first \u2018real\u2019 boxer he faced in Brit Tommy Fury, undefeated but himself with a padded record with no real opponents of serious calibre.<\/p>\n
Since then, he beat Nate Diaz by unanimous decision, Iron Mike Tyson in November 2024 and then Julio Cesar Chavez Jr in June. <\/p>\n
Sure, the usual caveats apply: Tyson was clearly past it at almost 60, Chavez Jr is not his father. But those are some big names for Paul to have got past.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Look, I know as well as you do that Jake Paul’s boxing record has not always been against…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":297484,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[447],"tags":[703,49,48,82],"class_list":{"0":"post-297483","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-boxing","8":"tag-boxing","9":"tag-ca","10":"tag-canada","11":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/297483","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=297483"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/297483\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/297484"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=297483"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=297483"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=297483"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
