Ready for Jake Paul’s Next Fight?
Although his path has been orthodox in boxing, Jake Paul has passed every test so far through his rise through the boxing ranks — Mike Tyson, Nate Diaz, Anderson Silva, and more. Chávez brings something different — actual boxing pedigree, although he is over a decade removed from owning his belt in a different weight class.
A win here would put Paul further into the cruiserweight conversation, though he’s likely still a ways away from a title shot.
