Paul controlled the match from the start. Chavez didn't put up much of a fight, disappointing many fans. The Mexican boxer only seemed to try in the last couple of rounds.
Some people wondered if the fighters had made a deal before the match. But Teddy Atlas, a well-known boxing trainer and analyst, doesn't think so. On his YouTube channel THE FIGHT, Atlas said:
"I don't think that Jake Paul would do that, I don't, I really don't."
Paul's win over Chavez Jr might help him get closer to a world title shot. He's now ranked by the WBA and could fight for a cruiserweight title. Paul has called out Gilberto Ramirez, who holds the WBA and WBO cruiserweight titles. He's also mentioned Badou Jack, the WBC cruiserweight champion, as a possible opponent.
The victory over Chavez Jr marks another step in Paul's boxing career. Starting as a YouTuber, he's now beating experienced boxers and aiming for championship belts. His next moves will show if he can compete at the highest levels of the sport.
