Youtuber turned professional boxer Jake Paul only fight in 2022 was by far his biggest achivement as he was able to pull of a win over former UFC middleweight champion Anderson ”Spider” Silva in October.
However, in a new interview with The Schmo, ”Problem Child” revealed that he will be back in the ring during the first quarter of 2023 even though he wouldn’t name his opponent yet.
One guy we probably can scratch from the potential ’who’s-to-fight-next-list’ is UFC veteran Donald ”Cowboy” Cerrone, who recently claimed he wanted to box Paul.
“Cerrone called me out? What did he say? Damn, is he out of his UFC contract? Interesting,” Paul told The Schmo. “I mean, I don’t know. I’m kind of tired of beating these old dudes up like that. You know what I’m saying?”
”So, I’m just trying to get someone in there who’s younger. But, they’re all scared honestly. They’re just trying to protect their records, you know.”

Jake Paul is still undefeated as a pro boxer
Making his professional debut back in January 2020, Jake Paul entered the ring a total of six times, including fights against two former UFC champions in Anderson Silva and Tyron Woodley as well as former ONE MMA champion Ben Askren.
Donald ”Cowboy” Cerrone retired from MMA in July 2022 after a long and successful career. In the UFC he fought some of the best absolute fighters the promotion’s ever seen, including world champions like Eddie Alvarez, Charles ”do Bronx” Oliveira, Conor McGregor, Anthony Pettis and Robbie Lawler.
