Of all his limited time in the ring, only once did Jake Paul face someone his own age and that was in February 2023 against Britain’s Tommy Fury, in a fight he lost by split decision in Saudi Arabia. Outside of that, his opponents have always left much to be desired and have raised suspicions about the comfort he clings to in order to maintain the narrative that he has some kind of serious future inboxing.
Jake Paul’s fiancé leaves him speechless with unusual dance moves
Another ‘tailor-made’ election?
Now, his next opponent after his media fight with Mike Tyson is Mexican Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., an almost 40-year-old boxer who had the talent and opportunity to go far in the ring, but threw his career away because of addictions and his difficult temperament.
Although Chavez Jr. boasts a respectable record of 53 wins in 61 fights, 34 by knockout, and is considered by Logan Paul, Jake’s brother, as “a dangerous opponent because he is a real boxer“, the reality is that the son of the legendary Julio Cesar Chavezhas nothing left to give in the ring, although many insist on thinking so.
And there are those who are convinced of that, among fans or professionals, as is the case of former UFC fighter Michael Bisping, who does not swallow anything that comes from Jake Paul, whom he called “a pathetic individual” since he announced his fight with Mike Tyson
Michael Bisping’s fierce criticism
Bisping lashed out at Paul in a video posted on the YouTube platform, in which he did not hold back: “That’s why I don’t respect Jake Paul as a boxer. It’s not that I’m jealous of his money or anything like that (…) Jake Paul is not a real boxer. He makes up the situation for fights and opponents that he knows he can win, like this new one with Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. Well, the guy is almost 40,” he said bluntly.
Bisping’s words are just the echo of what is said on social media, where the meme of ‘Jake Paul challenges 100-year-old Jimmy Carter’ is circulating again to criticise the announcement of his ‘brand new’ rival: “(Chavez Jr.) was beaten by Anderson Silva, he’s had substance issues and things like that, I think, in the past, and he’s got some losses on his record. He’s almost 40 years old, okay? And he’s not his father. This is another situation that Jake Paul has looked at; it’s calculated. Yes, he has to work hard, yes, he has to train hard, but he probably knows he can beat this guy,” Bisping concluded.

2025 NFL Draft winners and losers: Shedeur Sanders falls into both categories, Tom Brady makes the list
Getty Images After 257 picks, the 2025 NFL Draft is officially in the books. The draft started on Thursday with the Browns doing something crazy, and it ended on Saturday with the Browns also doing something crazy, so in a way, the draft truly came full circle. The first round started with a blockbuster trade between Cleveland and Jacksonville that saw the Jaguars move up from the fifth pick to the second overall spot so they could take Travis Hunter. Although Hunter went second overall, one player who had to wait longer than expected to get drafted was Hunter's college teammate at Colorado, Shedeur Sanders. Not only did he fall out of the first round, but he ended up falling all the way to the fifth round before the Browns took him with the 144th overall pick. For this draft, Sanders was both […]
Broncos 2025 NFL Draft takeaways: Building around Bo Nix with new targets, defensive depth
The Broncos closed the draft Saturday by acquiring a developmental pass rusher in the fourth round, a punter with the last pick in the sixth round and former basketball standout and converted tight end in the seventh round.Those moves punctuated a three-day event that was more substance than flash for the Broncos. After landing their franchise quarterback in 2024 and making the playoffs during Bo Nix’s encouraging rookie season, this offseason has been about careful upgrades designed to help Denver take another step forward in their quest to become real contenders — and not just in 2025.Advertisement“We did a good job in free agency to put ourselves in a position to really look at, three years out, how do we like this player?” Broncos coach Sean Payton said in the days leading up that draft.Only time will reveal whether this […]

El Clasico: What wild Copa del Rey final win means for FC Barcelona, and what loss means for Real Madrid
Getty Images After FC Barcelona won 3-2 against Real Madrid in the Copa del Rey final, in what was a wild 120 minutes of play, it's now time to think about what's next at both clubs, especially at Real Madrid, where there will be even more doubts about the future of Italian coach Carlo Ancelotti, who looks increasingly likely to end his successful spell at the Spanish club after winning 15 trophies. Despite the success, Real Madrid are facing the risk of ending the current 2024-25 season with no trophies, and this might lead the club's president, Florentino Perez, to look for another coach in the summer. Here's what we learned from the final of the Copa del Rey: Hansi Flick continues hot start On the other side, FC Barcelona are more than happy with the decision they made in the summer […]
