Jake Paul secured a commanding points victory over Julio Cesar Chavez Jr, delivering a one-sided performance that positions him closer than ever to boxing’s elite.

✅ Fight Recap: Paul in Control, Chavez Jr Unrecognizable

In the main event held on June 28, 2025, at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California, Jake Paul took full control of the fight from the opening bell, while Chavez Jr looked sluggish, hesitant, and largely ineffective throughout.

The former world champion, and son of Mexican boxing legend Julio Cesar Chavez, never truly got into the fight. He landed just 61 punches over 10 rounds, with the majority coming in the final three rounds—far too late to change the outcome.

Paul, on the other hand, dictated the pace with crisp jabs, effective footwork, and a strong physical presence in the ring. The gap in conditioning and focus was clear.

A Game-Changing Victory for Jake Paul

With this win, Jake Paul is no longer just a YouTuber turned boxer—he’s becoming a legitimate contender. Following the fight, Paul named an impressive list of potential future opponents including Gervonta Davis, Tommy Fury, Canelo Alvarez, and even Anthony Joshua.

Most notably, Paul also mentioned possible world title challenges against Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez or Badou Jack, both top-ranked fighters in the cruiserweight division.

The WBC and WBA are reportedly considering ranking Paul in the top 15 at cruiserweight, which would make him eligible for an official title shot.

Jake Paul’s Post-Fight Comments

Speaking in the ring after his victory, Paul didn’t hold back:

“I beat a former world champion who’s never been stopped. I dominated. All the boos? Talk is cheap. I’m ready to fight anyone, anywhere, anytime.”

His message was clear: Paul isn’t backing down from the criticism—he’s feeding off it.

Chavez Jr: Uncertain Future Ahead

Many fans were left disappointed, expecting more fire from the Mexican veteran, who only showed signs of life in the closing minutes of the fight.
