Jake Paul doesn’t wait for the Chávez Jr. fight to end-he already names his next opponent: a boxer who once faced Floyd Mayweather

SPORTIVO
Article arrow_drop_down

Jake Paul’s fast-rising boxing career is set for a new chapter this Saturday, June 28, when he steps into the ring with a familiar name in the sport: Julio César Chávez Jr. While Chávez Jr. may not be considered a dominant force in the ring today, he carries the legendary name of his father-“El César del Boxeo”-and that alone is reason enough for Jake Paul to take this fight seriously.

Paul, 28, made the transition from YouTube celebrity to professional boxer and currently holds a record of 11 wins and 1 loss. This weekend’s clash with Chávez Jr. is not just a spectacle-it has been sanctioned by the California State Athletic Commission, giving it official status as a professional boxing match.

That sanction adds legitimacy and a layer of seriousness to the fight, which will be held at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California.

Official rules for the Paul vs. Chávez Jr. fight

According to California’s regulatory body, the bout will be contested under the following professional boxing rules:

Jake Paul threatens Canelo Álvarez and mocks Julio César Chávez Jr in shocking pre-fight antics

  • The fight is scheduled for 10 rounds, each lasting 3 minutes.
  • There will be a 1-minute rest period between rounds.
  • Scoring will follow the 10-point must system, where the round winner receives 10 points and the loser 9 or fewer depending on knockdowns or penalties.

The match will be officiated by certified judges and a referee appointed by the commission.

With the fight fully regulated, fans can expect a serious contest filled with intensity and real stakes-something more than the exhibition-style matches Paul has been criticized for in the past.

Jake Paul stirs the pot with more antics ahead of fight night.

Never one to shy away from showmanship, Paul again ignited the hype machine by arriving at his training camp in a flamboyant Mexican poncho and sombrero, gloves on and piñata stick in hand. In a viral video, Paul is seen smashing a piñata bearing the likeness of Chávez Jr., sending candy flying across the room. Perhaps. A premonition? That remains to be seen.

In the same video, Paul taunts:

Chávez will be my piñata on Saturday – then Canelo is the next.

A bold declaration that makes it clear he’s already setting his sights on the reigning king of boxing.

Jake Paul wants Canelo Álvarez next

Whether it’s bravado or belief, Jake Paul appears to be eyeing the ultimate challenge-Mexican superstar Saúl “Canelo” Álvarez. For Canelo, the mere mention of Paul’s name likely registers as little more than background noise. The Guadalajara native has more pressing concerns as he prepares for his highly anticipated September showdown with Terence Crawford.

But Jake Paul’s campaign continues, building headlines and hype-and if he defeats Chávez Jr. on Saturday under professional rules, it could be another step forward in legitimizing a career that began far from the boxing world.

Fantastická bilance, jakou NHL neviděla téměř 90 let. Švédský brankář je jako zeď

Wallstedt proti Oilers čapnul 33 střel a zajistil svému týmu hubené vítězství 1:0. Minulý měsíc chytal šestkrát a pokaždé se radoval. V rámci kariéry má na kontě deset výher a pět z nich přišlo s čistým kontem. To se v NHL nestalo těžko uvěřitelných 61 let. Naposledy v listopadu 1964 díky Rogeru Crozierovi.„Hokejem se teď bavím, hrajeme dobře. V našem pásmu bráníme skvěle, kluci hrají obětavě. Způsob, jakým přede mnou hrají, se nedá popsat jinak než jako velkolepý. Nepamatuji si, že by se mi někdy takhle dařilo,“ uvedl Wallstedt po skalpu Edmontonu. Rodák z Vasterasu se stal zaslouženě nováčkem měsíce listopadu.Jeho bilance je zkrátka nevídaná. Švéd se stal teprve čtvrtým nováčkem brankářem v historii NHL, a prvním po 87 letech, který zaznamenal čtyři čistá konta v šesti po sobě jdoucích zápasech.
