Jake Paul is deviating from the script in his development as a boxer. Paul meets Andre August, the most experienced professional boxer that Paul has faced, on Friday night in Orlando, Florida.
Paul cut his teeth in pro boxing by defeating former UFC champions, MMA superstars, an ex-NBA player and a fellow social influencer. So it came as a surprise when he ditched a working formula to fight August, a boxer boasting 12 professional fights and no name value. On paper, August is the most competent boxer that Paul has faced since losing a split decision to Tommy Fury in February.
It’s an interesting Friday night attraction with a few other fights worth noting. The WBC women’s super middleweight title is on the line in the co-main event when Shadasia Green and Franchon Crews Dezurn battle it out for the vacant strap. Yoenis Tellezis set to take on Livan Navarro in a super middleweight contest. And welterweight prospects are set to battle when Elijah Flores takes on Javier Mayoral.
