      Inside Jake Paul’s fight diet for Julio Cesar Chavez Jr fight with favourite dinner and cheat meal revealed

      by

      JAKE PAUL has been training off a diet of tasty chicken and the occasional cheesecake in preparation to fight Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. The YouTuber-turned-boxer returns to the ring on Saturday night against former middleweight world champion Chavez Jr. Jake Paul’s fight camp diet has been revealedJake Paul returns against Julio Cesar Chavez JrCredit: GettyHe switched his training from his adopted home of Puerto Rico to Atlanta, Georgia where Paul recently purchased a £29million ranch.And with him all the way was personal chef Eric Triliegi – who has worked with the likes of Conor McGregor and Ryan Garcia in the past.Triliegi – an expert in helping fighters cut weight through nutrition – has the job of making sure Paul is fuelled for 12 weeks of training.He told SunSport: “For someone like Jake or an athlete it’s actually very simple. READ MORE IN boxing “We want to make sure he’s getting enough carbohydrates so he has enough glycogen storage in his muscles to be able to perform.”We gotta make sure he has enough fat so we can give him some of that good fat energy as well and then he has to have the right amount of protein so we keep him lean.”When we do the water load, we like to have him have more muscle mass because water and muscle cell combine, water and fat don’t combine.”So I like to make sure that he’s lean with muscle, got enough muscle so when the water load happens, it’s doing the right things.”Most read in BoxingJake Paul vs Julio Cesar Chavez JrJAKE PAUL’S controversial boxing career rolls on this weekend with the Problem Child facing boxing royalty in Anaheim, California.Paul will face Julio Cesar Chavez Jr, a highly-decorated former world middleweight champion.The Mexican, 39, has fought just once in the last four years but has the best boxing resume of any fighter to step into a ring with Paul – bar Mike Tyson, who was aged 58 at the time they fought.Watch Jake Paul vs Julio Cesar Chavez Jr LIVE on DAZN PPVINFOLATEST NEWS & FEATURESCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITSPaul’s favourite fight camp meal is chicken marsala – an Italian-American dish made of shallots, garlic and a wine sauce. He has up to four meals a day – breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks mixed in with smoothies between his sessions.Jake Paul vows to send Julio Cesar Chavez Jr into sad boxing retirement and goads ‘I’ll be there for you’And if Triliegi fancies treating Paul , he serves up a sweet treat – all still healthy, of course.He said: “Honestly, I’m not big on cheat meals but I will do a no-bake cheesecake, passion fruit cheesecake, things like that. “But I use all healthy ingredients.”Paul’s last fight was up at heavyweight in November when Mike Tyson controversially came out of retirement aged 58. He jumped up to 227lb (16st 2lb) before winning on points and now drops back down to the 200lb cruiserweight limit of 14st 4lb. And Triliegi said: “The last fight camp for Tyson we were having over 3,400 calories a day – maybe a little bit more.”We were gaining weight, so it was a lot easier. Now with this, he came in camp light around 215, so the weight cut’s been real easy, real simple.”Triliegi has to make sure Paul’s calories are reduced as the fight edges closer and the weigh-in approaches.But the chef – who brought out his own book called Fight Food – even tracks the boxer’s SLEEP to help him shed the unwanted pounds Triliegi said: “I monitor everything, his sleep cycle, light, deep, in REM, his training, rest blocks.”If everything is going smoothly, he can eat the food that he wants, he can eat when he wants. “But we just monitor a little bit of the portion control. But other than that, we’re monitoring sleep, making sure he doesn’t eat too late. “If you eat too late when you go to bed instead of resting, you’re digesting so it’s taking away from the purpose of sleep so we pretty much keep track of everything.”Jake Paul’s chef Eric Triliegi even lives with the boxerJake Paul tucking into one of his meals More

      Jake Paul confirms rules for Gervonta Davis fight despite FIVE STONE weight difference with exhibition in works for 2025

      by

      JAKE PAUL has confirmed what the rules will be in a fight against Gervonta Davis – with talks for an exhibition underway. The two were close to announcing a shock bout despite their huge weight difference. Jake Paul has teased an exhibition fight against Gervonta DavisCredit: SportsfileDavis fights five stone lighter than Jake PaulCredit: Getty Images – GettyBut Davis controversially drew with Lamont Roach in March with the pair to rematch in the summer. And Paul told Ariel Helwani: “That was on the one-yard line as well but he has to rematch Lamont Roach. “He wants to get that back. Then we’ll be back in discussions with Mr. Gervonta. “But this is the nature of boxing, you have massive fights on the one-yard line but things just fall through.” READ MORE IN BOXINGPaul’s last fight was up at heavyweight when Mike Tyson controversially made a comeback aged 58.But a huge 100 MILLION tuned in to watch on Netflix as Paul won an eight-round decision in Texas.He was then closing in on a deal to fight Canelo Alvarez, 34, back down at cruiserweight on May 3 in Las Vegas. But Canelo walked away from the deal to instead sign with Saudi Arabia’s Turki Alalshikh, beating William Scull, 32, in Riyadh in May. Most read in BoxingCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITSSo after Davis’ draw with Roach in New York, Paul watched another mega-fight fall by the wayside. He said: “I never really thought Tank was that good it would just take the right fighter to pick him apart, to be honest. Tyson Fury’s DMs to Jake Paul leaked ahead of potential Tommy rematch”Someone who had high activity and wasn’t afraid of his power. So, I always saw so many holes in his game. “To me it wasn’t that surprising that someone finally gave him some good work.” Paul, 28, now returns on June 28 against ex-middleweight world champion Julio Cesar Chavez, 39, back down at cruiserweight. But the 14st 4lb limit of 200lb is still FIVE STONE above the 9st 9lb lightweight division of 135lb where Davis reigns as WBA champ. As a result, a bout with Paul would not be able to be professionally sanctioned due to the size difference. So the YouTuber-turned-boxer admitted it would be an exhibition, over ten, three minute rounds where he would weigh no more than 195lb. Paul added: “No restrictions. Just the fact that we couldn’t actually get it professionally sanctioned.” The American is now eyeing the fight for the end of the year after his return against Chavez – son of the legendary Julio Cesar Sr. Paul said: “We’re working on it behind the scenes to make that happen. “Obviously, that’s a fight where the fans are going to win, and it’s going to be the biggest event of the year.Read More on The Sun“I’ll give anybody the smoke.
