Jake Paul is aiming to clinch the cruiserweight world title by 2025, setting his sights on becoming a professional boxing champion. The YouTuber-turned-boxer, known as “The Problem Child,” is gearing up for a match against American MMA fighter Mike Perry in Florida on July 20, following a postponement of his bout with boxing legend Mike Tyson due to a health scare.
Paul’s boxing career has seen him face one professional boxer, Tommy Fury, among his ten fights, resulting in a record of 9 wins and 1 loss. Despite limited experience against traditional boxers, Paul remains confident in his abilities, stating in an ESPN interview that he believes he could realistically claim a world championship within the next year or by 2025 at the latest.
Throughout his professional boxing journey, Paul has competed across various weight classes, ranging from 185 lbs up to cruiserweight, showcasing his versatility and determination to pursue top honors in the sport.
