Jake Paul will put on the gloves once again in just a few days. The influencer-turned-boxer is set to face Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., and he claims to have a secret weapon up his sleeve to defeat the Mexican veteran.
In recent years, Jake Paul has been steadily building his boxing career. What began as a mere entertainment venture has now become one of his main personal and professional pursuits.
The YouTuber aims to establish himself among the best in the sport. He now faces one of his toughest challenges yet: a clash with former world champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. on June 28.
Jake Paul reveals his plan to beat Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.

Last November, Paul faced Mike Tyson — a fighter 31 years his senior. He cruised to a unanimous decision victory, largely due to Tyson’s visible exhaustion by the third round.
To truly test his skills, Paul’s team has now lined up a more legitimate opponent. Chavez Jr., a former world champion, represents a notable step up in competition — and at 39, he’s 11 years older than Paul, but not nearly as large an age gap as with Tyson.
In preparation, Paul says he’s developed a new approach to boxing — one the world has yet to see. He has sent a huge warning to the Mexican about what to expect from him in a few days.

“I really haven’t been able to show the world all my new skills,” Paul told reporters, hinting at significant evolution in his style since the Tyson bout. “This fight will simply be an offensive war.
“Styles make fights, and Chavez is a strong forward fighter who keeps his hands up, which opens up many opportunities for me to hit him. And the way our styles match up, I’m just going to tear him apart.”
