YouTuber-turned Boxer Jake Paul shows no signs of slowing down! After his most recent fight with boxing legend Mike Tyson, in which Jake emerged victorious by a unanimous decision, there are rumors and discussions about who is going to be his next opponent.

While Jake Paul hasn’t talked about his next fight plans, there is an interesting conversation happening on the internet that is trying to predict who Jake will fight next.

Before we discuss who this “opponent” could be – let us take a look at Jake’s fighting record.

Jake Paul’s Impressive Boxing Career

The YouTube now boasts a record of 11-1 with 7 knockouts. Jake has an impressive boxing career and has been on a rapid rise on the influencer (and now even professional!) boxing scene since his debut in 2020. He initially gained attention with six straight wins, mostly against former MMA fighters like Tyron Woodley. However, his momentum was briefly halted in February 2023, when he fought a real boxer, Tommy Fury, for the first time in his career. This is Jake’s only professional loss in his career.

In his win against the boxing legend Mike Tyson, all three judges scored in favor of Paul: 80-72, 79-73, and 79-73.

IShowSpeed vs Jake Paul?

Yes! The popular streamer IShowSpeed has said that he wants to fight the younger Paul brother in 2025. Speed says that he thinks he can beat Jake Paul.

IShowSpeed is known for his energetic streams and also his athletic physique and activities that he is often seen doing on his streams. Once, he jumped over two sports cars coming at him in full speed and has also defeated Adin Ross in a quick grapple fight inside the UFC cage.

“I will fight Jake Paul in the upcoming… 2025,” Speed stated, adding a touch of humor by saying that the fight would likely coincide with the long-anticipated release of GTA 6.

Despite his joking tone, Speed expressed confidence in his abilities. “I feel like I could beat Jake Paul, though,” he said. “We will fight.”

Are the two going to face off? Only time will tell
