Jake Paul is an American professional boxer, YouTuber and promoter, born in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1997. He built his following on Vine and YouTube alongside his older brother, Logan Paul, and played Dirk Mann on the Disney Channel series Bizaardvark. He made his professional boxing debut in January 2020 and has since beaten former MMA stars Tyron Woodley, Anderson Silva and Nate Diaz. In November 2024 he beat Mike Tyson in a heavyweight bout that streamed live on Netflix, and in June 2025 he beat former world champion Julio César Chávez Jr. by unanimous decision. His two professional losses came against Tommy Fury in February 2023 and Anthony Joshua in December 2025, a fight that left him with a broken jaw.

The company merged with the Professional Fighters League in 2026, and Paul is scheduled to face kickboxing champion Cédric Doumbé in Dubai on Dec. 24, 2026.
