Jake Paul recently shared insights into his upcoming fight, unveiling that he will be facing a former junior Olympian boasting more knockouts than his previous adversary. In December, Paul secured a victory over Andre August, who entered the match with a record of 10-1-1 and five KOs. Scheduled for Saturday, March 2 on Amanda Serrano‘s undercard in Puerto Rico, Paul’s Most Valuable Promotions dropped hints about his next opponent. What was the hint one might wonder?

MVP took to Instagram to share a picture of Paul, with the caption providing the stats of his next opponent: “More wins than any previous opponent. More KOs than any previous opponent. Golden Gloves Champion. National Junior Olympics.”

Having faced a setback in February last year against Tommy Fury, Paul redeemed himself with a point victory over Nate Diaz and a first-round knockout against August in December. The 27-year-old boxer, eager for another challenge, mentioned during a press conference that his upcoming opponent holds a superior record compared to August.

With Paul’s business partner Nakisa Bidarian hinting at another bout in June or July, it is evident that Paul is determined to continue pushing his limits and taking on increasingly formidable opponents. As the anticipation builds, boxing fans eagerly await the formal announcement of Paul’s next opponent for his March bout.
