Jake Paul, the king of self-promotion (well, his brother, Logan, of WWE fame, may argue that fact), returns to the boxing ring this December. He had been due to clash with Gervonta Davis last month, but with a civil lawsuit filed against the current unbeaten WBA lightweight champion, the scheduled bout was cancelled. Others would have decided to put their feet up for the festive period, but not Jake Paul. Instead, he decided to call out an even bigger name and more dangerous opponent, in the shape of former Olympic gold medallist and two-time world heavyweight champ, Anthony Joshua.
The forthcoming boxing extravaganza, which is taking place in Florida, may be controversial, but you know you’ll be watching like the rest of us. Let GOAL set the scene and give you all the viewing information you need.
It will be a huge step up for ‘Problem Child’, who has previously only fought MMA fighters and other social media stars. He is taking part in his 14th professional bout as he goes gunning for his biggest boxing scalp. He’s compiled an impressive 12-1 record since first embarking on a career in the sport in 2018 and is currently on a six-fight winning streak. The famous YouTuber had shown his punch power in earlier bouts, stopping three opponents in a row within eight months (2023-2024), two of those wins coming within the opening round. However, in his latest encounters with former ring legends, Mike Tyson (November 2024) and Julio Cesar Chavez Jr (June 2025), he had to rely more on endurance, as he claimed unanimous decision victories on both occasions.
Anthony Joshua, now 36 years of age, may have slid down the heavyweight rankings and not fought since September 2024, but he remains one of boxing’s biggest stars and most potent punchers, and although he won’t admit it, Jake Paul knows he’s taking on a very fearsome opponent.
Joshua had the world at his feet back in 2018 after claiming a stoppage win over Alexander Povetkin at Wembley Stadium, which saw him retain all his belts and extend his pro-record to 22-0. However, along came Andy Ruiz Jr. in June 2019 at Madison Square Garden, and AJ’s world turned upside down. Joshua may have avenged that loss a year later, but the Ruiz loss had exposed cracks that couldn’t be rectified. The Watford man would lose twice to Oleksandr Usyk (2021 & 2022) and get KO’ed by Daniel Dubois after just 5 rounds (2024), and he hasn’t been seen in the ring since.
Let GOAL assist you with all the crucial pre-fight info you require for Jake Paul's next boxing bout, including the tale of the tape, where the event is taking place and how you can watch the boxing bonanza.
