Following his most recent victory against Tyron Woodley, there are several high-profile boxing bouts that Jake Paul could take on. On top of the list would be a rematch with Woodley, who seems eager to run it back. Another option would be to take on Jorge Masvidal, provided Dana White is willing to let Masvidal compete outside the UFC.

Interestingly, we might even see Jake Paul take on Tommy Fury, Tyson Fury’s younger brother. Both have been jawing at each other for a while. In fact, Tommy Fury fought on the Paul vs Woodley undercard, securing a unanimous decision against Anthony Taylor.
