Jake Paul has received harsh advice to dismiss his advisors just a few weeks before his upcoming bout with Anthony Joshua. The emerging boxer has shown significant progress in the sport since turning professional in 2020, often challenging former UFC fighters. Despite notable victories over Anderson Silva, Nate Diaz, and Tyron Woodley, Paul’s only loss was against Tommy Fury in 2023.
Primarily a cruiserweight, Paul will step up a weight division for his match with Joshua, although he does have some experience in the heavyweight category. In a dominant performance in November 2024, he defeated heavyweight legend Mike Tyson.
However, concerns have arisen about Paul’s well-being leading up to the fight, with many urging for its cancellation. British heavyweight talent Moses Itauma expressed strong opinions on the controversial Miami event scheduled for December 19.
Scheduled for December 19 in Miami, Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul are set to face off in a heavyweight showdown. The fight will be live-streamed on Netflix, available for free with Sky’s £15 Essential TV package, the lowest price offered by Sky TV.
Itauma criticized the matchup, emphasizing the need for Paul to consider the consequences of the fight on his health and well-being. Despite the criticism, Itauma remains focused on his own upcoming fight against Jermaine Franklin in Manchester on January 24, aiming to silence his doubters and continue his development in the sport.
The clash between Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul is scheduled just before Christmas on December 19 in Miami, with the ring entrance expected around 11 pm local time, translating to 4 am in the UK. The event’s timing may vary based on the undercard matches, with the fight broadcast live on Netflix.
