Jake Paul has been teasing his return to the boxing ring in December of this year for the past month. Now, ‘The Problem Child’ has finally announced that he will be fighting professional boxer André August on December 15. Subsequently, this will be the second time that Paul fights a professional boxer after his fight with Tommy Fury.

Jake has a boxing record of 7 wins and 1 loss and has fought several famous fighters like Anderson Silva, Tyron Woodley, and most recently, Nate Diaz. Furthermore, Paul’s next opponent is a professional boxer with a record of 10-1-1 and has won five bouts via KO. Subsequently, the fight will not be a PPV event but rather will be streamed on DAZN. Hence, fans have been trolling Jake about the fight not being a PPV event by stating:

Subsequently, Jake has been accused of cherry-picking his opponents and not fighting professional boxers. The only time he fought a professional boxer was his fight against Fury, which he lost via split decision.

Hence, Paul wants to prove himself as a boxer, especially by fighting professional boxers and gaining actual fighting experience. However, fans feel that Jake is gaslighting everyone about the reason why the fight is not a PPV event.

Fans were anticipating that Paul would have a rematch against Fury or Diaz or fight with KSI to end his feud with him. However, Paul announced that his next opponent is the professional boxer Andre August, who is not a well-known fighter at all. Paul announced that his next opponent would have more victories in his record compared to Jake and more KOs.

Hence, Paul is trying to state that his opponent is a proper professional boxer according to his previous bouts. Furthermore, Paul announced that the fight wasn’t a PPV event and that his objective was to acquire boxing experience rather than money.
