YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul officially set a timetline for his pursuit of a world title.
“Not slowing down the train for anybody. … I believe in 2025 I will most likely be world champion,” Paul said around the 6:00 mark. “It’s not even about the path, I think I’m ready for it in the next couple of months here, and I’m most likely gonna go for it in 2025.”
Paul, who competes in the cruiserweight division, will instead face Bare Knuckle Fight Championship star Mike Perry on July 20. Tyson had to withdraw from the fight due to a medical issue, which caused the postponement.
It will be interesting to see how Paul fares against stiffer competition, but it’s clear that he’s determined to achieve his goal of winning a title.
