Jake Paul: Pics of the YouTube Star & Fighter
Jake Paul became famous for his YouTube videos, but has pursued a career in boxing, and is preparing to face Mike Tyson in the ring. See his photos here.
Jake Paul rose to fame on the video platform Vine, but these days, he’s the reigning king of YouTube and a now boxer. The famous funny guy boasts nearly 20 million subscribers to his account, and frequently collaborates with his brother Logan Paul, an internet phenomenon in his own right!
HollywoodLife caught up with Jake in California on April 8, 2019 to get update on his current projects and his hand injury that has left him out of the boxing ring for the time being. When asked if he thinks he’ll ever box again, he wasn’t so sure. I don’t know, it depends on when I throw a punch again at the bag and see how it hits. But, I’m scared. I’m kind of salty about it. But I still feel like I could beat 90% of these YouTuber’s asses with one hand, including KSI. I think the only person I couldn’t beat one-handed is my brother,” he said. However, one person he won’t be getting in the ring with is Chris Brown. “He’s soft man. He’s not ready for the smoke.” Zing!
Over time, he returned to the ring and has fought several opponents, but now faces a major competitor: the renowned boxer Mike Tyson. The two are set to fight on November 15, 2024.
