Jake Paul will look to extend his winning streak when he takes on former world champion Julio César Chavez Jr. on Saturday night.
Currently with an 11-1 record, Paul is aiming to build on his win over Mike Tyson and extend his winning streak to six.
Should Paul prevail against the son of one of the greatest Mexican boxers of all time, he will not be short of options for future opponents.
Tommy Fury has said he will rematch Paul within the next 12 months, with an internet star matchup with KSI also a possibility. However, one fighter that Paul will likely not face is Callum Walsh.
Jake Paul blasts Dana White’s boxing star Callum Walsh
Ahead of his fight with Chavez Jr., Paul was a guest on the Jaxxon Podcast, hosted by former UFC fighter Quinton ‘Rampage’ Jackson.
Paul was asked on the podcast what his thoughts were of Dana White’s boxing star Walsh during the interview, to which ‘The Problem Child’ responded, “Bro, he is so trash.”
The co-host of the podcast Bear Degidio then said, “He’s undefeated Jake, what do you mean?” Paul then said that being undefeated in boxing ‘doesn’t mean anything anymore’, as he is seemingly unimpressed by Walsh’s 14-0 record.
“Some of these people are undefeated; they pad their records, all this —-. Dana’s been promoting him for how many years, bro, and he’s gone nowhere,” Paul added.
When the 11-1 boxer was asked if he would beat Walsh in a fight, Paul responded, “Yeah.”
The internet star said that the Irish fighter would not accept a fight with him due to weight difference. Paul will take on Chavez Jr. at cruiserweight (200 lbs), while Walsh competes at super welterweight (154 lbs).
Walsh wants his next fight to be on the undercard of Canelo Alvarez vs Terence Crawford, but did not mention Paul as a potential opponent.
Jake Paul has been a boxing professional since 2020
When Paul faces Chavez Jr., it will be his fifth consecutive year fighting as a professional.
Although Paul has not followed a traditional boxing route, the internet star has created plenty of headlines in the sport.
Paul’s professional boxing debut was against fellow YouTube creator Ali Eson Gib, before ‘The Problem Child’ took on former NBA star Nate Robinson later that year.
Paul’s sole career loss came when he met Fury in Saudi Arabia in 2023.
