On April 17 Jake Paul (2-0, 2 KOs) will have his next professional fight. This time the American blogger will cross gloves with Ben Askren, the former UFC and One Championship fighter.
24-year-old Paul made his professional debut last January, knocking Ali Eson Gib out in the first round. In November, he knocked out the former NBA basketball player Nate Robinson.
The April standoff will take place in the United States via Pay-Per-View. Paul recently proposed to Conor McGregor a boxing bout. The Irishman could have earned $50 million for this meeting.
Logan Paul, Jake's older brother, prepares for an exhibition fight with Floyd Mayweather Jr. This fight, which should be an exhibition, is scheduled for February 20, but it is possible that it will be postponed to a later date.
