Anthony Joshua vs. Jake Paul fight: watch date, match card and more details


Jake Paul is set to meet Olympic gold medalist and boxing champion Anthony Joshua in the ring this week. Unlike the recently canceled bout between Paul and Gervonta Davis, this will be a professional bout and not an exhibition bout.

Joshua brings a lot of experience at 36 years old. He has been boxing since 2007, winning a gold medal in 2012 while representing Great Britain at the London Olympics and turning professional in 2013. Since then, he has become an experienced heavyweight fighter, and his record includes 25 knockout wins and IBF and WBA championship titles.

This will be Paul’s last fight since his bouts against Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. in June and Mike Tyson in 2024. There are no titles on the line in the upcoming showdown between him and Joshua, but weight will certainly come into play when the 28-year-old Paul – who weighs in at around 227 pounds – steps into the ring with Joshua, who stands 6 feet 6 inches tall and has agreed to a ceiling of 245 pounds.

“I’m taking him to another boxing school that I don’t think he’s been exposed to yet,” Joshua said during the pair’s press conference in November.
