Jake Paul’s 5-0 record is looking to take on another challenger as he prepares for a summertime boxing match this coming August. ‘The Problem Child’s most recent victory saw him defeat former UFC champ Tyron Woodley in their highly-anticipated rematch after UK boxer Tommy Fury pulled out at the last minute due to an injury. Thus far, Paul’s been keeping his lips sealed on who his upcoming rival could be… but it looks like he’s got some pretty big names on his list in the interim. Amanda Westcott, SHOWTIMEJake Paul now boasts a 5-0 boxing record after defeating Tyron Woodley in a 2021 rematch.

For now, Paul says he wants someone who “matches my star power” when it comes to carrying promotion for events.
