JAKE PAUL\u2019s company is naming Top Rank Boxing Head of Content Strategy & Programming JOE SETLEY Senior VP\/Products & Digital Media, giving him what MVP says is oversight of its social media, website, mobile apps, newsletters and content library. He will report to MVP co-founder & CEO NAKISA BIDARIAN and MVP President LENNY DANIELS. <\/p>\n
