Jake Paul faced a significant setback in his boxing career when Anthony Joshua delivered a knockout, dropping him four times and breaking his jaw. Despite this tough hit, Jake isn't hanging up his gloves just yet.
With an estimated 33 million viewers tuning in on platforms like Netflix, the fight caught widespread attention. Jake's influence extends beyond his skill level, driven largely by his commercial appeal—a point David Adeleye, a former training partner, emphasized. David believes Jake will return to the ring in 2026 to prove a point.
In David's words:
"I see him getting back in the ring in 2026 to prove a point."
He suggested that with success at regional levels in America, Jake could maneuver into a world title fight.
"I think he could end up worming his way into a world title shot if he beats people at regional level in America."
Though it seems unlikely for now that Jake will win a world title, there's always talk centered on possibilities.
Jake himself doesn't shy away from discussing future plans. He intends to recover from his injuries and eventually aim for the cruiserweight world title. He mentioned taking some time off after six years of hard work.
"We're going to heal the broken jaw, come back and fight people my weight and go for the cruiserweight world title."
"I'm going to take a little break. I've been going hard for six years. I'm going to take some time off."
As Jake ponders his next move, Anthony Joshua remains focused on returning stronger as well. Now 36 years old, Joshua looks forward to fighting in Saudi Arabia next year as part of potential preparations toward facing Tyson Fury.
With both boxers reevaluating their careers after this punch-packed encounter, fans eagerly await their future battles inside the ring.
