Nakisa Bidarian, co-owner of the promotional company Most Valuable Promotions, in an interview with Ariel Helwani, named the terms of Jake Paul's return to the ring.
"He's doing well. Obviously, during the day there are periods when the pain is quite severe. But there are also periods when there is no pain at all. The recovery process takes five to six weeks, and he is focused on returning to boxing in 2026. I do not consider a broken jaw to be a career-ending injury or one that defines it. In MMA, Junior Dos Santos broke his jaw, had plates put in, and then came back to become champion."
