Jake Paul's Boxing Lessons: What He Learned from Anthony Joshua

Jake Paul recently stepped into the boxing ring against a much larger opponent, Anthony Joshua. The fight did not go as planned for Paul. He spent most of the early rounds trying to avoid Joshua's powerful punches. In the sixth round, Joshua landed a devastating right hand that broke Paul's jaw in two places, ending the fight. Despite the loss, Paul remains optimistic. He joked about getting his ass beat and claimed he won two rounds before being knocked out. Paul admitted that Joshua's size and power were challenging, especially since he had less than three weeks to prepare. He wished he had more time to train and build muscle to better withstand Joshua's punches.Paul also mentioned that he had accomplished one of his goals: lasting longer against Joshua than Francis Ngannou, a former UFC heavyweight champion who lost to Joshua in March 2024. Paul criticized Ngannou, calling him soft and saying he had no chin. After his fight with Gervonta Davis fell through, Paul considered fighting Ngannou but was turned down. Paul is now open to the idea of fighting Ngannou, suggesting that Ngannou might reconsider after seeing Paul's performance against Joshua. Paul's journey in boxing has been filled with ups and downs, but he continues to learn and adapt.
