Boxing purists might contest the legitimacy of his resume, but Jake Paul has a proven history as a promoter coming off a fight against Mike Tyson that was watched by 100 million people on Netflix. On Saturday, he’ll take on another former world champion. Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. was the WBA Middleweight Champion in the early 2010s and is the son of a three-division world champion. Paul vs. Chavez will take place at the Honda Center in Anaheim around 11 p.m. ET.
Paul is 11-1 in his boxing career with seven knockouts, but this will only be his third bout against an experienced professional boxer. He previously lost by split decision to Tommy Fury and beat Tyson by unanimous decision after eight two-minute rounds with 14-ounce gloves. He’s 11 years younger than Chavez Jr., who ended a nearly three-year hiatus to beat mixed martial artist Uriah Hall by unanimous decision last July.
Chavez is 54-6-1 in his career with 34 knockouts, but he began his career with a 46-0-1 record and made three defenses of the WBA Middleweight Championship in 2011 and 2012. Both fighters previously fought UFC champion Anderson Silva, with Chavez Jr. losing via split decision in 2021, while Paul defeated Silva by unanimous decision in 2022.
