The fighter and social media mogul shows off his latest high-flying purchase

Jake Paul isn’t just winning in the boxing ring-he’s cashing in, too. The 28-year-old fighter and social media star just added a private jet to his growing list of big-money purchases, and he made sure the world knew about it.

In an Instagram video posted Wednesday, Paul danced on the tarmac next to his brand-new jet, which came complete with a giant red bow. “Bought my first jet,” he captioned the post. “Went global cause I’m global silly me.”

Inside, the jet is just as flashy as you’d expect: sleek dark oak paneling, plush beige seats that fully recline, built-in TVs, and his own personal flight attendant. Oh, and just in case the jet wasn’t enough, Paul pulled up in a gray Maybach SUV-also wrapped with a bow, because why not?

Knockouts and net worth: How Jake Paul keeps cashing in

This isn’t just a random splurge-it’s a flex that makes sense for Paul’s current trajectory. His boxing career has skyrocketed over the past few years, and he’s cashing in on it. After his blockbuster fight with Mike Tyson on Netflix last year-one that reportedly pulled in 108 million viewers-Paul walked away with an estimated $40 million. Not bad for a guy who started out making prank videos.

The jet isn’t just about luxury; it’s about making moves. Paul has been busy positioning himself as boxing’s next big name, recently calling out Canelo Alvarez for a potential fight and launching a reality show with his brother, WWE star Logan Paul“I’m the new face of boxing,” Jake declared. “You cannot have the biggest fight of 2025 without my name involved.”

Love him or hate him, Paul knows how to stay relevant-and how to spend his earnings.

The ‘Paul’ brothers never tire of confronting boxing stars

If anyone wants to make a splash on social media, it’s Logan Paul, but this seems to be something of an inheritance with the week his older brother, Jake, has had. This time it was the turn of the content creator and WWE fighter

In a chat with T.I. on his interview channel, Impaulsive, the controversial topic came up, because the guest recognized Logan Paul for his great work as a fighter:

“When you fight Gervonta, surely people will recognize you with more praise. I feel like that will make people value you more.”

Logan said some words that will surely hurt ‘Tank‘ when he hears them: “Size matters. I don’t give a f*** how good he is, you understand? When I fought Floyd I realized that size matters. I would f*** Gervonta in a fight.”

rather awkward silence came over all the guests and even the host himself, but Logan Paul lowered the tone of his statement instantly:

“Gervonta, you’re a good fighter, but stay in your weight,” he concluded

We already know that ‘Tank‘ is short-tempered when you get along with him in any circumstance, so it should come as no surprise that the boxer responds in the same way.

Jake Paul already had his “war” against Gervonta

It seems to be a family custom to try to drive Davis crazy, as this rivalry began just after the Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson fight

Gervonta Davis launched harsh criticism and attacks against Jake on social media, calling him a “bozo” and pointing out that he did a lousy job in the ring

In addition, ‘Tank‘ publicly challenged Paul, assuring that if they met in the ring, he would be the one who would win, giving him a tremendous beating.

Jake responded immediately in the press conference after his fight with Mike and without losing his sense of humor, he accepted the challenge with irony and questioning whether there would be a “height limit” in boxing, referring to and mocking Davis’ short stature.

We’ll see if there is a part two in this confrontation against the ‘Paul’ brothers, but now with Logan who is focused on creating content and fighting in the WWE.

Daniel Dubois defends the IBF heavyweight world title against Joseph Parker on the February 22 Riyadh Season event live on Sky Sports Box OfficeOleksandr Usyk reveals his plan to leave the sport after two more contests and what fight he wants next

Oleksandr Usyk expects to have only two more fights in his career and wants to box the winner of Daniel Dubois vs Joseph Parker next.

Usyk remains an unbeaten world champion after going undisputed at both heavyweight and cruiserweight.

The Ukrainian beat Tyson Fury to win all four of the major heavyweight titles last May. He vacated the IBF belt but retained the unified WBC, WBA and WBO championships with his repeat victory over Fury.

Britain’s Dubois picked up the IBF title and puts that belt on the line against Parker on February 22, live on Sky Sports Box Office.

The winner of that fight could box Usyk later this year for the undisputed heavyweight crown.

“I will fight who will win, Joseph Parker, Daniel Dubois, no problem,” Usyk told Sky Sports.But the Ukrainian, at 38 years old, expects to retire from boxing in the next two years and is likely to fight only once more after his next fight.

“I think two years, one and a half [left in boxing],” he said. “I feel great myself. I feel I have two fights to prepare [for], not more. Just two.”

Dubois targeting Usyk

Dubois challenged Usyk for the unified heavyweight championship in 2023. Ultimately he was counted out in the ninth round but he had put Usyk under pressure at time in their fight.

The Londoner is convinced that he has developed as a fighter and wants the chance to avenge his loss to Usyk.

“I’m just getting better, improving. They say when you win a world title you improve. So I feel like that’s what’s happening with me. I’m ready to show what I can do again and conquer whoever they put in front of me,” Dubois told Sky Sports News.

“We’ve all got to grow up sometime,” he added. “Run it back.

“My next fight I’m working towards [is Usyk after Parker], I’m ready for it now.”

 

The American has surprisingly suggested his fight with Roach could form a part of his final year in boxing, as he is considering retirement in 2025.

It would be a huge blow to the sport and a significant surprise if he chooses to hang up his gloves at the age of just 30, with potential big fights ahead of him.

Nonetheless Davis is preparing in the gym for his upcoming test, and appears to be taking things very seriously.

The American has shown off his current impressive shape, looking close to optimum fighting weight.

He posed for a photo flaunting his sensational physique, and is showing no signs that he has given on the sport yet.

And that is exactly what fans have spotted, suggesting it is a sign that he may well make a U-turn on retirement given he appears in motivated shape.

One reacted: “And you guys think he is going to retire. Clearly very motivated.”

Another wrote: “I thought he wasn’t condition. Thought he wasn’t disciplined.

“Thought he’s always blowing up and weight in between fights. This guy is serious.”

One wrote: “He looks so so good, wow. Roach is in trouble, there’s no way he’s retiring after that.”

A fan even added: “He must fight Loma [Vasyl Lomachenko] and Keyshawn [Davis]. He can’t retire in this shape.”

One final fan was less optimistic and concluded: “Getting in shape to knock out someone who never stood a chance against him in a million years.

“When will @Gervontaa fight a real threat?”

Davis has faced criticism over both his decision to retire and his recent opponents, having failed to spark the imagination since his incredible win over Ryan Garcia in April 2023.

It remains to be seen who he could fight after Roach if he takes another victory.

A raft of opponents have thrown their name in the hat including Shakur Stevenson, with huge demand for the pair to meet.

And when giving an update on the potential of a showdown taking place, Stevenson told talkSPORT.com: “He’s the big superstar.

“He’s the big name, the biggest pay-per-view superstar in the sport of boxing so with him being the biggest name and attraction it’s on him [to make it happen].

“The ball is in his court. I can’t say ‘I’m going to send him an offer’. Turki [Alalshikh] can.

“Turki has got the money, I don’t have the money to send Gervonta Davis a big enough offer.

WBA lightweight champion Gervonta Davis might be the face of boxing, but rising star Keyshawn Davis doesn’t think much of the Baltimore native. ‘The Businessman’ is geared to lock horns with WBO lightweight champion Denys Berinchyk on February 14th at the Madison Square Garden Theater, New York, but hasn’t lost sight of ‘Tank.’

Much like the entire lightweight division, Keyshawn Davis has called out Davis for a fight several times. Akin to the rest of the folks, ‘Tank’ has refused to give Keyshawn the time of the day. However, this didn’t stop the Norfolk native from hitting Davis where it hurts the most. While appearing in an interview with Fight Hub TV recently, Keyshawn took digs at the WBA champion.

“I would love to face [Gervonta Davis]. … I just think he [doesn’t] have the balls to fight me. I really just feel that way… I don’t think he really got the balls to see me on contract and fight me,” Keyshawn Davis said. ‘The Businessman’ will fight for his first major title this weekend, and a win here technically puts him on the same level as Gervonta Davis.

‘Tank’, on the other hand, is expected to clash against WBA featherweight champion Lamount Roach Jr. on March 1st in Brooklyn. Regardless, Keyshawn Davis thinks if Gervonta was really up for it, it’s a very easy fight to make between them.

Later in the interview, the 25-year-old roped in David Benavidez, highlighting his situation with Canelo Alvarez. Benavidez, despite being Canelo’s mandatory for over a year, hasn’t been able to secure a fight. So, Keyshawn Davis wants to carve out his own path rather than chase Gervonta Davis to the end of the earth.

“I’m just waiting for him to send me a contract, bro,” Keyshawn said. “I feel like, with me and him, making a fight is easier because everybody knows who the A side is. Everybody knows what the f**k’s going on when it comes down to me and him as far as making a fight. I feel like it’s actually a really easy fight to make and it’s definitely easy promoting it.

That said, it appears Keyshawn Davis is sick and tired of trying to convince Gervonta Davis to give him the fight that he deserves. However, whether they will ever meet in the ring is yet to be seen. Do you think Keyshawn Davis can beat Gervonta Davis? Let us know in the comments down below.

Canelo & Munguia Team Up—Why Jake Paul and William Scull Should Worry

Mexican boxing is hotter than ever, and two of its biggest figures have decided to put the punches of the past behind them to join forces in search of greatness. Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez and Jaime Munguia, who fought an intense battle in May 2024, have decided to train together to face their respective challenges.

After months of speculation and controversy, where even Jake Paul wanted to get into the conversation with his usual provocations, Canelo has chosen to ignore the media noise and concentrate on what really matters: the ring. With time running out and a commitment looming on May 3 in Riyadh, Alvarez has decided to get in shape with an unexpected ally, but with the same warrior DNA: Jaime Munguia.

Canelo Alvarez vs. William Scull: How is the Mexican champion preparing?

Canelo’s preparation is not a simple formality, as his next opponent, William Scull, is no ordinary opponent. The Cuban is unbeaten and has his sights set on becoming the undisputed super middleweight king. With the International Boxing Federation (IBF) belt on the line, Alvarez will be looking not only to defend his legacy, but also to regain the division’s absolute crown.

For his part, Jaime Munguia does not have an easy road ahead of him either. The Tijuana native suffered an unexpected setback when he was knocked out by Bruno Surace, a blow that shook his career but not his determination. Now, with a possible rematch on the horizon, April will be a key month for his redemption in the ring.

The relationship between Canelo Alvarez and Jaime Munguia

The alliance between Canelo and Munguia, under the tutelage of the experienced Eddy Reynoso, is proof that in boxing, rivalries can be transformed into powerful strategic partnerships. The joint training sessions not only strengthen their physical preparation, but also send a clear message: Mexico continues to dominate boxing, and its warriors are willing to do whatever it takes to stay on top.

So, while the betting and rumors continue to swirl around these two stars, the only sure thing is that both are ready to leave it all in the ring. Because in boxing, at the end of the day, words fade away and all that remains is the echo of the blows that forge history

Mayweather’s Team Sends a Clear Message: Jake Paul Doesn’t Belong in Boxing

What a week it was in boxing, it seems that Jake Paul was left a little frustrated, after Canelo rejected his proposal for a fight in Las Vegas in May‘The Problem Child’ was so close to that fight, his great goal in boxing was almost a reality, but an offer from Sheikh Turki Al-Sheikh to Canelo’s table ended everything

Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez has signed a deal with Riyadh Season, he will fight four bouts, three of them in Saudi Arabia and the other in the United States, where he will face Terence Crawford, but first he will face William Scull on May 3 for the IBF belt

The future of Jake Paul is uncertain, it seems that he moved all his efforts and signed up for that fight against Canelo, but it was not enough for his promoter. Surely that’s why he has chosen to attack Saul on social media

Canelo has not responded to his provocations since the post he made with Ring Magazine, where he pointed out that he only fights with real boxers

Boxing experts have not stood idly by and have also attacked Jake Paul.

Team Mayweather defends Canelo

On this occasion, Jeff Mayweather, uncle and trainer of the legend Floyd, spoke in an interview about this whole soap opera and lashed out against the elder of the ‘Paul’ brothers:

“He’s not the face of boxing. When you mention Jake Paul, you’re not mentioning him along with everybody else who are true boxers,” he said.

Likewise, Mayweather’s uncle has many doubts about Jake’s abilities, about whether he is still a prospect after five years in the sport, where he has not proven anything in boxing terms, unlike the economic issue.

The truth is that Jake Paul will have to look for a replacement, with the expectations that were made, it will be difficult to find an opponent of the caliber of Canelo

Darts sensation Gerwyn Price has claimed that he could take down YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul with a single PUNCH.

‘The Iceman’ is known for his prowess in the world of darts as a former world champion and winner of three Grand Slams, has recently ventured into the digital realm by launching his own YouTube channel, following the lead of fellow dart player Stephen Bunting.

During a chat with talkSPORT, when quizzed about whether he considers himself an ‘influencer’, the 39-year-old Welshman said: “I’m definitely not an influencer. I get bored easily, as you can see. When I had time off at the back end of last year, I got bored. So when I’m away, I’m going to try and fill in my time and probably record a bit of the backstage stuff, behind the scenes.

“Giving a little bit back to the fans of what goes on behind the scenes because not everybody sees that, you know.” The conversation took a surprising turn when it was suggested that after reaching 100,000 subscribers on YouTube, it could mean a showdown with ‘The Problem Child.’

The Welshman was quick to laugh off the idea of taking on the 28-year-old, insisting: “That’s easy. I look forward to that. He’s a YouTuber; he’s not a fighter, is he? I’ve got 99,000 followers to go.” Regarding where the potential showdown would take place, the Principality Stadium in Cardiff was brought up.

With a background in professional rugby union, it’s fair to say that ‘The Iceman’ is certainly backing himself and believes Paul wouldn’t dare travel to Wales for a potential boxing fight. “He’ll never beat me in Wales,” Price said confidently. “Nobody beats me in Wales. He’d probably beat Canelo (if they fought in Mexico), but he’s not beating me, no.”

 

The Super Bowl has more things on stake than you can imagine. Two best teams competing for the Lombardi trophy, an electric half-time show, even the commercials—everything is on the line. And of course, the victor has a shot at football glory. We call it Super Sunday for a reason, after all. For the 2024 season, Doritos decided to increase the stakes even further by bringing back their “Crash the Super Bowl Contest” almost 10 years after its discontinuation.

From 2006 to 2016, in a genius marketing campaign, Doritos invited fans to create their own commercials for a chance to have them aired in their slot live during the Super Bowl. The chance to get their ad featured during one of the most-watched television events in the US is an opportunity most budding creators would not want to miss.

When Frito Lay (their parent company) decided to bring it back for the 2024 season, the campaign became an instant hit. Fans and creators from all around the country submitted their creations, aiming to have them featured in front of millions at Super Bowl LIX. Doritos even roped in NFL legend Patrick Mahomes to market their campaign.

Mike Tyson‘s son Miguel Leon Tyson also took part in the contest when he was featured in an ad titled “Barbershop.” Zack Shenouda and Ryan Robinson, Miguel’s college mates from the University of Southern California, produced and directed the ad. In the ad, a young man gets a haircut but becomes distracted by his barber’s Dorito-laden fingers. The ad featured Tyson Jr. as one of the men getting a haircut. Miguel Tyson was also one of the producers in the ad.

The Doritos panel and fans loved the ad as it made it to the finals of the competition. Mike Tyson himself promoted the trailer asking fans to vote for his son to make his dream come true. However, despite making a very strong case, the ad lost it to another one in the finals.

While Shenouda and Robinson’s creation went to the finals, it was “Abduction” by Dylan Bradshaw and Nate Norell that took home the coveted $1 million prize and bagged the top spot. The ad featured an alien fighting with a hungry earthling over a pack of Doritos. What begins as a tug-of-war between them over the Doritos, ends with the two eventually sharing the snack together.

While almost 80,000 fans at Caesars Superdome, Louisiana enjoyed the winning ad, it was a heartbreaking result for Miguel Tyson and his friends. The whole team had a lot riding on this ad and it took them more than 2 weeks to finish the project. The director duo claimed, “As young artists, we believe we are just as capable of creating content that entertains, sells, and moves people. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us to get a step closer to chasing down our dreams.” 

Getting their ad played in from of a packed Superdome would have been the perfect platform for the group. Furthermore, the sensational prize money was a cherry on top.

Mike Tyson’s reaction quickly went viral on social media

The year 2024 ended in a very controversial way in the boxing world, Mike Tyson faced Jake Paul in a fight that disappointed many of their loyal followers. Age ended up affecting Mike and he looked very exhausted, while Jake lowered the pace during the fight.

It’s a bittersweet memory for all those fans who grew up watching Mike Tyson fight, but it wasn’t all bad, because they gave us a viral moment on social media and generated many headlines for the authenticity of that event.

We are talking about the tremendous slap that Mike Tyson gave to Jake Paul at the weigh-in of the fight. The elder Paul brother took this process with great humor and when trying to intimidate the boxing legend, he stepped on him, which provoked the ire of ‘Iron Mike’ who without thinking slapped him that turned his cheek to “The Problem Child”.

The event’s security intervened quickly before things got out of hand, Jake Paul grabbed the microphone and warned that everything became ‘personal’.

Mike Tyson breaks the silence

In a chat with ‘The Sean Hannity Show’Mike talked about some details of his return to the ring that few knew, and even asked his wife:

“Why did I do that? ” On a number of issues ranging from Tyson’s health problems to memory loss or his own contractual obligations with the fight,” was the former boxer’s reflection.

About the tremendous slap he gave Jake, his response was very classy and elegant:

“It wasn’t my intention to do it, but he stepped on my foot,” was his blunt message about what happened at the weigh-in

The clip went viral around the world, and that moment definitely helped it become a hit on Netflix. The platform reached an average of 65 million viewers, and there is no doubt that the slap helped to give the fight more visibility.
