Jake Paul is an influencer-turned boxer who’s famous for fighting retirees. He also came out to support Donald Trump in 2024 alongside the violent rapist Conor McGregor:

Now, Paul has finally done something which people can rally behind, and that’s getting his jaw broken in two places:
Jake Paul is an absolute embarrassment to the sport of boxing. A fraud who buys his way into fights against legitimate champions like Anthony Joshua, only to get knocked out in the sixth round after clinching, flopping, and running like a coward. He has no real skill or heart… pic.twitter.com/9JSPqi9LS2

A Paul-ing
As the New York Times reported, Jake Paul has fought 13 matches since becoming what they describe as a “professional” boxer. The reason we’re not so sure that wording is appropriate is because only five of those 13 bouts were against boxers (including a 58-year-old Mike Tyson). Paul has also boxed against two retired MMA fighters, cementing the impression that he’s the least professional boxer in the profession:
Jake Paul is the biggest clown on earth and has done irrefutable damage to boxing. Those who know, know.
Anthony Joshua getting the KO is karma for YEARS for so many REAL boxers and fighters that Paul disrespected, and had rigged fights with. pic.twitter.com/m4UiUWcJ1n

That was so embarrassing for boxing and hopefully the end of the Jake Paul bullshit in the ring

The fight between Paul and Anthony Joshua lasted for six rounds, and it ended when Paul found himself unable to get back up in time following repeated knockdowns. People took great joy in sharing images and videos from the knockdowns:

It later came out that Joshua broke Paul’s jaw, with Paul himself sharing an X-ray:

People also suggested Joshua went easy on Paul:
There’s going to be a ton of “respect to Jake Paul for even taking this fight”
BUT F**K THAT… there are 7 billion people on this earth that would have done that to triple their net worth.
He didn’t even do that. Joshua could have put him out cold at any moment he wanted. pic.twitter.com/Opd1pUrrra

They further drew attention Paul’s interesting fighting style (or ‘avoiding fighting’ style, you might say):

A boxing record that will absolutely never be broken

Jake Paul: Trump love in
As noted, Jake Paul threw his weight behind Donald Trump in the 2024 election:
In the text for the above video, Paul noted:
I was very hesitant to make this video, but I felt like I had no choice. This is the most important election in U.S history. If you are a U.S citizen, please exercise your right to vote, and let’s come together to save America. This is who I am supporting in the 2024 Presidential Election… and why you should too.
He added:
make the right choice, and exercise your right to vote… America depends on it
On the same day that Paul was getting his clock rung, Trump was breaking the law by not releasing the so-called Epstein Files (files which many believe will incriminate him personally). Meanwhile, the American economy is showing significant signs of trouble, and millions of people are facing the loss of their healthcare.
So yeah, it’s not for nothing that people wanted to see this guy get knocked out.
Imagine if Jake Paul getting knocked out was the first domino to fall in things finally taking a turn for the better in the world.
