On Monday, Most Valuable Promotions (MVP) and DAZN announced that Jake “The Problem Child” Paul (7-1, 4 KOs) will return to the ring on Friday, December 15th.
There is no word on his opponent or the location of the fight.
December’s return to the ring promises to showcase Paul’s best effort yet as a hungry fighter ready to do whatever it takes to become a world champion.Facing his first loss at the hands of Tommy Fury in February by a contentious split decision, Paul found himself back on top in August, defeating Nate Diaz by unanimous decision.
“Eight fights in the boxing game and I’m already its biggest name,” said Paul. “I’ve proved that I can headline the biggest global events and defy the odds. PPV after PPV after PPV, and I’m just getting started. My mission is to be a world champion and I’m willing to do whatever it takes to get there. December 15th is the next step on my journey, and I promise you’re not going to want to miss it.”
In just three years since turning pro, the 26-year-old Paul has collected multiple accolades including ESPNRingside’s 2021 “Knockout of The Year” and Sports Illustrated’s 2021 Breakout Boxer of the Year. He also earned distinction on the cover of Sports Illustrated’s August 2023 issue, “The 50 Most Influential Figures in Sports.”
