YOUTUBER-turned-boxer Jake Paul and Mexican icon Julio Cesar Chavez Jr will fight at the top of a Honda Center bill – and the undercard is just as thrilling!
The Problem Child suffered a lot of criticism the last time he competitively stepped foot in the ring.
Paul, 28, outpointed boxing legend Mike Tyson, who is 30 years his senior.
It was a fight that ended with unanimous boos in the AT&T Stadium and one fan even labelled the bout “the saddest watch in boxing history”.
However, Paul has a huge chance to get boxing lovers on his side once again as he takes on the son of pound-for-pound legend Julio Cesar Chavez.
But before these two cruiserweights dance in the ring, there are several scintillating fights on the undercard.
