Jake Paul is going from fighting one former world champion to another next up but the weight jump is no joke.
Heavyweight boxing is different.
He takes on former heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua next December 19th in Florida.
Many are not aware of this whom are new fans to the sport of boxing.
Here’s a look at the facts on this.
Paul’s Leap from Chavez Jr. to Joshua Nightmare
Paul’s last fight was a decision win over 39-year-old Chavez Jr.
Chavez landed only 12 punches in six rounds against Paul.
Joshua throws triple that volume in single combinations.
Chavez weighed in 15 pounds below Paul on fight night.
The leap skips every active top-15 heavyweight.
Chavez had lost seven of his last ten fights.
Paul’s team called Chavez “perfect preparation” weeks before Joshua.
Training footage shows completely different sparring intensity.
Chavez himself laughed at the comparison when asked.
This jump is bigger than Paul’s move from NBA players to Tommy Fury.
Overall, this cannot be underestimated by Paul.
The fight at heavyweight.
He trains at that weight however and has fought there but live fight night will tell a lot.
One thing about Jake Paul, he doesn’t genuinely appear to have any fear in him.
That’s a great thing.
Jake Paul is part of something bigger than boxing — he won’t be stopped whatever happens.
Pressure is on Joshua, not Paul.
