Jake Paul Next Fight: Who's Next In the Ring with The Problem Child?
Love him or hate him, Jake Paul's next fight is always a massive event. The YouTuber-turned-boxer has built himself a serious reputation for shocking the professional boxing world, taking on some of the biggest names in the game.
With his win over Mike Tyson locked in—securing a unanimous decision victory last November—boxing fans are already asking: Who is Jake Paul fighting next? Let's break it all down—the rumors, the possible opponents, and what's at stake for The Problem Child as he continues his climb towards becoming world champion.
When and Where is Jake Paul's Next Fight?
While the official Jake Paul next fight date hasn't been confirmed yet, he's teased that a boxing announcement will be coming soon.
He recently took social media by storm, hinting at a potential fight against his WWE star brother, Logan Paul. However, this turned out to be a promotion for a docu-series titled Paul American, which will be airing on HBO Max on March 27. It'll be featuring unseen footage and behind-the-scenes on the brothers, showing the "raw, unfiltered truth" behind their lives.
We'll update this article with more information as soon as Jake Paul announces his next opponent and fight date. But you can expect any upcoming fights to be aired on platforms such as DAZN, ESPN+, YouTube, and Netflix.
One thing's for certain, Paul loves to put on a good show. Whenever or wherever the next fight happens, expect a massive event with celeb appearances, high-energy promos, and a full-on spectacle leading up to fight night.
Who is Jake Paul's Next Opponent? Rumors & Possibilities
Jake Paul has a current boxing record of 11-1, seven of those being KOs. As such, whoever he cherry picks as his next opponent will be one to up the score, not bring it down lower. His name has been linked to multiple fighters and you can bet he's keeping things spicy by teasing potential fights on social media.
Here are some of the most talked-about possibilities for Jake Paul's next fight. Bear in mind that none of these are confirmed and are just rumors at this stage.
Logan Paul
A fight between Jake and his older brother Logan Paul might sound crazy, but the idea has been floating around recently, especially on social media. Both have made waves in boxing, and a sibling showdown would made headlines.
Would they really go toe-to-toe in an all-out bout or is this just a pipe dream? Time will tell whether The Problem Child and The Maverick will ever 1v1 in the ring.
Canelo Alvarez
Jake has repeatedly called out Canelo Alvarez, one of the best pound-for-pound boxers in the world. While most boxing purists may scoff at the idea, Jake thrives on "picking the biggest and toughest challenges" out there and proving people wrong. If this fight ever happens, it would be the ultimate test of his skills.
Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.
A more realistic step up in competition would be Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., a former WBC middleweight champion. Chavez Jr. has the name value and boxing credentials to make this a legit fight, and if Jake could pull off a win, it would be his biggest statement yet.
Tommy Fury Rematch
Paul's only loss has come at the hands of Tommy Fury, and you know he'd want that one back. Their first fight was close, with Fury taking the split decision win, but Jake has improved since 2023.
A rematch with Fury would give Paul a shot at redemption, regain relevancy, and prove he's got what it takes to be a professional boxer.
KSI
Let's be real. Jake Paul vs. KSI is THE fight everyone's been waiting for. Their beef goes back years and after years of constant back-and-forth jabs on Twitter, this influencer boxing fight needs to happen. However, due to difficulties in agreeing on a suitable weight-class, this seems unlikely to happen. But we can dream.
Honorable Mention: Claressa Shields
Claressa Shields also threw her hat in the ring, cofident she'd easily defeat Jake Paul in a boxing match. The two-time Olympic gold medalist dismissed any chance of Paul KO'ing her.
She explained she spars with men regularly as part of her training, adding "The men I spar against will whoop Jake Paul’s a**. So [there] ain’t no doubt in my mind what I would do to that amateur." A potential matchup between Shields and Paul is definitely unconventional, which actually makes it right up Jake Paul's alley.
Why Jake Paul's Next Boxing Match Matters
Every boxing match is a chance for Jake Paul to prove himself. Whether you think he's a legit boxer or a marketing master, he's drawing more attention to the combat sport and bringing legions of new fans to boxing.
His fights aren't only about winning, they're about making a statement and securing valuable promotions. His next move will say a lot about where's he's headed next.
- If he fights a "real" boxer (like Mike Tyson or Tommy Fury again), it's another step toward true boxing credibility and a shot at competing for a world title.
- If he takes on another MMA for UFC fighter, it's a crossover event with massive appeal to fans new and old.
- If it's KSI, it's the influencer-boxing bout fans have been waiting years for, settling a years-old rivalry.
No matter who he faces and when it happens, one thing's certain—Jake Paul's next fight is going to be a must-watch.

Jake Paul's Journey So Far
Before stepping into the boxing ring, Jake Paul was already making waves online, but in a completely different world.
Social Media Superstar
Jake Paul originally blew up on Vine (the OG TikTok), where his stunts and hyped energy earned him millions of followers. When Vine shut down (RIP), he transitioned to YouTube. Here, where he built a bigger following and his own squad, aka Team 10, posting vlogs, pranks, and music videos (remember It's Everday, Bro?), that all racked up billions of views.
His online success landed him a role on Disney Channel's Bizaardvark. However, this was short-lived due to his history and bad-boy persona.
Transitioning to Boxing
Jake Paul's combat sports journey began in 2018 when he stepped into the ring for a high-profile boxing match against Deji Olatunji, fellow social media star and the younger brother of KSI. Jake won by TKO, proving he had real potential to building a boxing career.
His professional boxing debut came in 2020 against AnEsonGib, another YouTuber, whom he dominated with a first-round TKO.
From there, Jake moved onto bigger names, like basketball star Nate Robinson, while tallying up more wins on his path to obtaining a boxing world title.
Setbacks & The Comeback
In 2023, Jake took his first defeat against Tommy Fury, the younger brother of heavyweight champ Tyson Fury, through a split decision. It was a close fight, but Fury's experience as a lifelong professional boxer gave him the edge. Many thought it would be the end of Jake's boxing career, but The Problem Child bounced back with a dominant win over Nate Diaz, proving he's still a serious threat.
He went on to defeat Andre August at the Caribe Royale Orlando and Ryan Bourland in San Juan that same year. However, his most controversial win is also his most recent fight, and he hasn't been back in the boxing ring since.
In November 2024, Jake Paul defeated Mike Tyson, the former heavyweight champion and over thirty years his senior, via a unanimous decision. After months of hype and bold KO promises, Jake Paul's Las Vegas showdown with Iron Mike fell flat for many fans. Instead of fireworks, Paul outstruck Iron Mike for eight two-minute rounds in a fight that never delivered the explosive battle everyone expected.
Paul hasn't stepped in the ring since the Tyson fight. Now that the dust has settled, fans are buzzing to see who Jake Paul is fighting next.
Final Thoughts
Like him or not, Jake Paul is making moves in the boxing world, drawing more attention that ever before. His next fight is guaranteed to bring fireworks, drama, and controversy, and we're all here for it!
