In a highly-anticipated showdown, Jake Paul stepped back into the boxing ring and emerged victorious against Julio César Chávez Jr. after a grueling 10 rounds at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California.
This latest triumph adds to Paul's impressive record of 11 wins and just one loss, with a stunning seven of those victories coming by way of knockout. The fight marked his return following a seven-month hiatus from the sport, and it solidifies his position as a rising star in boxing. Paul’s most notable duel prior to this was against none other than boxing legend Mike Tyson in November 2024, where he claimed victory in what became one of the most-watched sporting events on Netflix, attracting an unbelievable 65 million viewers.
On the other hand, Chávez Jr. boasted an impressive record of 54 wins, including 34 knockouts, with only six losses and a draw. Once a WBC middleweight champion, he faced various ups and downs in his career, suffering a setback against former UFC champion Anderson Silva in 2021—who was then defeated by Paul in 2022.
Prior to the match, Chávez Jr.'s father, the legendary three-division world champion Julio César Chávez, expressed confidence in his son's ability to take on Paul. "All fights are difficult. Jake Paul is young and strong, but he’s never faced a fighter like my son," he proclaimed at a press conference in May. He even went as far as to say, "I would’ve given Mike Tyson a better fight. He didn’t throw one punch the whole fight. This time is different." That bold statement set the stage for an electrifying clash.
The main card featured six other thrilling fights, with the co-main event showcasing Gilberto Ramírez's victory over Yuniel Dorticos, further adding excitement to the night.
Following his win, Paul didn't hold back, telling his critics to 'shut the f— up' as he reveled in his success. The boxing world is buzzing—will this victory pave the way for even bigger challenges for the 26-year-old sensation?
