Jake Paul’s boxing record

In the lead-up to the 2018 fight between his brothers Logan Paul and KSI, Jake Paul began his boxing career with an amateur victory over fellow social media personality Deji Olatunji. However, he did not turn pro until early 2020.

There, he beat YouTuber Ali Eson Gib by technical knockout in January before impressively defeating Nate Robinson, three-time winner of the NBA Slam Dunk Contest, in November of the same year.

The following April, Paul surprised Ben Askern, an ex-UFC star, with a technical knockout in the first round. Tyron Woodley was the next opponent, and Paul defeated him again in August and December to maintain his undefeated record.

Last October, Paul scored his best performance to date with a unanimous decision win over Anderson Silva to improve his record to 6-0, but in February, Paul lost to Tommy Fury for the first time in his professional career, losing by a split decision in Saudi Arabia.

The following fight for Jake Paul goes the full ten rounds, making it the longest in his professional career to date. The troubled kid's first two fights each went six rounds, but all of his later fights went eight rounds.
