Jake Paul received harsh advice to dismiss his advisors shortly before his upcoming bout with Anthony Joshua. The rising star in boxing has shown significant progress since turning professional in 2020, mainly taking on former UFC fighters like Anderson Silva, Nate Diaz, and Tyron Woodley. Despite his success, he suffered his only defeat against Tommy Fury in 2023.
Although primarily a cruiserweight, Paul will move up a weight class for the match against Joshua. In a notable victory in November 2024, he defeated heavyweight legend Mike Tyson. Concerns about Paul’s well-being have been raised leading to calls for the cancellation of the fight. British heavyweight Moses Itauma criticized the matchup scheduled for December 19.
The anticipated clash between Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul is set to happen in Miami, streaming live on Netflix on December 19. Itauma highlighted the need for Paul to carefully consider the implications of the fight on his health and personal life. While Itauma expressed criticism, he remains focused on his own fight against Jermaine Franklin on January 24 in Manchester.
Itauma is determined to prove his critics wrong in his upcoming match and views it as a crucial opportunity for his development in the sport. The event is expected to draw attention, with both fighters gearing up for what promises to be an intense battle. The fight times may vary based on the undercard’s duration, with the event broadcast live on Netflix.
