JAKE PAUL is hoping to take another huge boxing scalp when he takes on Mexican mogul Julio Cesar Chavez Jr TONIGHT!
The Problem Child hasn’t competitively stepped foot in the ring since his controversial points win against legendary heavy-hitter Mike Tyson.
Fans feared for 58-year-old Tyson before the fight, and made their voices heard when the decision was followed by unanimous boos around the AT&T Stadium.
However, the victory meant that Paul extended his professional boxing career record to 11-1 – only losing a bitter grudge match to Tommy Fury in 2023.
And the social media sensation will be determined to build on that when he goes toe-to-toe with Julio Cesar Chavez Jr at the top of a huge Honda Center bill.
