Jake Paul has his sights set on his next opponent, and it appears to be Anthony Joshua.
Paul is coming off of a decision win over Mike Tyson in November in a fight that was mired in controversy before the opening bell rang. Now, his attention is on a matchup with the former unified heavyweight champion.
“I know my boundaries,” Paul said on his podcast BS w/ Jake Paul. “Here’s the thing: I want to fight Anthony Joshua — exclusive — because I know that I will f*cking beat Anthony Joshua’s ass.
“He doesn’t have a chin, and he has no skill, and he’s stiff. And I love you, Anthony. We’re friends, all this sh*t, but I want to fight you.”
Paul competed three times in 2024, which also includes knockout wins over Ryan Bourland and BKFC star Mike Perry. The 28-year-old suffered his lone boxing loss to Tommy Fury in February 2023, but has bounced back with five straight victories.
The YouTube star turned boxer has been quite confident in his skills, saying he’d defeat the likes of Canelo Alvarez, and other high-ranked boxers. However, Paul revealed who he wouldn’t feel good fighting because he’d know he’d lose — and it’s the man sitting in-studio with him for the episode.
“I will beat Canelo, I will beat a lot of f*cking people, I will not beat David Benavidez,” Paul said. “I would get torn up, bro. This guy is different.”
