Internet personality and aspiring boxer, Jake Paul, has his sights set on a big name in the combat sports world for his upcoming boxing match. Although the identity of this contender has not been disclosed yet, it is hinted to be a renowned icon of the fight world.
Since his transition into professional boxing in 2020, Jake Paul has been known to court controversy as he pursues opponents with significant profiles in the sports arena. This potential face-off follows the same pattern, with Paul consciously choosing high-stakes confrontations.
Past opponents include former NBA player Nate Robinson, whom Paul knocked out in a 2020 event that was organized by Triller, and more recently, ex-MMA athlete Ben Askren. The fight with Askren, which took place under the Triller Fight Club banner in April 2021, ended with Paul securing a first-round knockout victory.

There’s no official word yet on who his next opponent will be, nor any confirmation regarding the time or venue of the proposed fight.
While the identity of the potential opponent remains a mystery, Paul’s aspirations hint at a significant combat sports figure, further demonstrating his ambition to contend with the biggest names in the boxing world.
