Jake Paul (11-1, 7 KO) will take the next step to become the world champion when he faces the former WBC medium scale champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. (54-6-1, 34 KO) 28 June at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California. The most valuable promotions revealed details about the fight against ESPN on Friday.
The 10-round fight, which MVP will interact with the Golden Boy promotions Oscar de la Hoya, will be questioned with a weight limit of 200 pounds and air on Dazn Pay-Per-View.
“Five years ago I entered the ring to my professional debut after one amateur fight, and each fight was a step towards becoming the world champion. I just beat the youngest man on the planet, and now I am fighting the former master, whom Conman Canelo could not end,” said 28 -year -old Jake Paul, said in the ESPN statement.
“Chávez Jr. is a Mexican, but I, El Gallo de Dorado, I have the will and heart of the great Mexican fighters. On Saturday, June 28, live in Dazn Pay-View, I knock out Julio and I make chávez sr. proud in the way Jr. never has another massive event with some season, with some season, with some season, with some season Oscara de la Hoya.
The announcement of the fight appears only a few months after the proposed fight between Paul and Canelo Alvarez broke up at 11 hours in favor of four fights with the Riyadh season. Then Paul continued the fight against Gervont “Tank” Davis. However, the controversial majority of Davis from Lamont Roach Jr. In March, she derailed these plans because it is currently expected that Davis will continue the Roach rematch. After the breakup of two hit duels, Paul turned to the former world champion and son of the boxing legend in Chavez.
“Chavez Jr. was always on a miniature list of fighters that Jake Paul aimed,” said MVP co -founder, Nakisa Bidarian to ESPN. “After the fight with Tyson, the original plan consisted in the fight against Chavez Jr.
39 -year -old Chavez will be the second former world champion with whom Paul stood, although the previous champion lost to the former YouTuber, he won his first world championships over a decade before Paweł’s birth. In November 2024, Paul won a unanimous decision against the former heavyweight master Mike Tyson, 58, in a record event on Netflix. Chavez had the last world champion title in 2012. Since losing the WBC title with Sergio Martinez in 2012, the career of Chavez was uneven and inconsistent, and the Mexican passed 8-6 after the 46-0-1 record began.
Chavez’s performances have suffered significantly, with unilateral decision defeat with Alvarez in 2017 and a embarrassing loss from former MMA master Anderson Silva in 2021. He was recently in action based on Paweł’s fight with Mike Perry in July in July, when Chavez pointed to MMA Fighter Uriah Hall in the fight with six times. Although Chavez is far from the form he had at the beginning of his career, the former master thinks that his problems are behind him and will be able to reverse “El Gallo”.
“First of all, I will show what I can do now so that everything is in the right place in my life and physically,” said Chavez. “I feel rejuvenated and 10 years younger. Secondly, I want to thank MVP for the risk of fighting me. Unfortunately, for their problem child, they will have a huge problem in June-one will not know how to solve. Let’s hope that when I beat him, people will not disregard this win.”
In the co-main event, a unified weight champion in Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez (47-1, 30 KO) from Golden Boy Promotions will defend his titles against the former united champion Yunal Dorticos (27-2, 25 KO).
Ramirez won the titles of WBO and WBA in 2024 after his term of office in Super Middle Wweight, where he maintained the title of WBO in 2016-2018, after which he left to move on to a featherlight ponderous weight. The lonely defeat of Ramirez came against the current heavyweight champion Dmitryjum Bivol in November 2022. Fighting from Cuba, Dorticos is a former master of the cruiser’s weight in the winning series.
“Once again, Golden Boy proves that we are ready to cooperate with everyone to ensure the largest and most thrilling events in boxing. We are excited to cooperate with Jake Paul, Nakisa Bidarian, the most valuable promotions, and Dazn to bring this hit to fans around the world,” said Oscar de la Hoya, chairman and general director of Golden Boy.
Paul and de la Hoya divide a common enemy in UFC Dana White CEO, which has UFC 317 during the annual international promotion struggle week at Paul-Chavez Jr. at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
“I am excited about cooperation with Oscar de la Hoya, who is the only former warrior who successfully run a promotional company,” said Bidarian. “Like Jake Paul, Oscar has his haters, but this is because they both move with a needle, like few, and they are not afraid to speak in their minds.”

Gold Coast, Australia – next time when Jai OPTETIA enters the boxing ring, he should meet the Mexican star Gilberto Ramírez in the struggle of unification in the circuitous weight.
The 29-year-old Australian produced the Italian pretender Claudio Squeo on Sunday evening at the Gold Coast Convention & Exhibition Center, gibberish and bruise for four and a half rounds. It ended that Opeteta landed a nasty right hook, which broke Squeo’s jaw, dropped him to his knees and did not give Judge Robert Hoyle not made to the choice but to cancel a unilateral fight.
“I was in a hurry, I really wanted to pull him out of it,” Odetaa said right after the fight. “We did what we had to [and] We have much more to do. I am chasing these uniform fights and it’s frustrating. “
Squeo weighed almost four kilos lighter than Opetoa on Saturday afternoon at Pacific Fair, and the size and difference in height from the very beginning was clear. The Odetaa round felt the opponent’s style before he began to raise the stake and exploit it as a personal training bag.
It was the sixth time that Opitaia successfully defended his IBF and the Ring World Championships, extending his undefeated run to 28 fights and once again proving that he was a shot in addition to his addition to his collection of cruiser belts.
Opetoi has long been deafening deafening about his desire to fight Ramírez, which has WBO and WBA stripes. Their potential show is rumors as a fight that could take place on the undercard of the September fight between Canelo Alvarez and Terenka Crawford in Las Vegas, although nothing has been confirmed so far.
“I am chasing these world champions, I focus on this,” said Odetaa, asked what would happen next in his program. “Next fight, Gilberto Ramírez. Let’s take it. I am chasing the belts. The fight is straightforward to do. Let’s do it.”
Ramírez is fighting Yunal Dorticos this month in Anaheim and it is challenging to see how the fight against Opetsia will not go forward if he had a victory.
“Turki al-Sheikh has been talking about this fight for a long time,” said the manager of Odetai, Mick Francis, asked about the possible battle of Odetaa-Ramírez. “But it depends on them, they have to say” yes, we are here, we are ready, let’s do it. “
Here’s how the fight night developed:

Keyshawn Davis jumps the opponent behind the scenes after his brother’s losses – he is pulled out by clays

One might think that after meeting his title he blew up the main ESPN event and watching his brother lost on live television, Keyshawn Davis could make sense to sit and close. But no – instead, he decided behind the scenes a full clown and attack Nahir Albright.
It was not balmy adrenaline. It was a deliberate move. Albright has just handed Kelvin Davis his first professional loss-arranged in the decision on the pure majority-he interviewed Marek Kriegel ESPN after the fight with Marek Kriegel. Then Keyshawn comes, freshly refueling the card, walking on Albright With his younger brother KeonPutting the forehead on the face of the guy, and then grabbing him, as if they were going to settle in the parking lot. Safety had to take them off. Albright ended with a apparent tumor on his head.
From Olympians to Clown Act for 48 hours
The whole thing was caught on ESPN cameras. And it was pathetic. The self-proclaimed face of a modern generation resorting to sneaking attacks and budget-friendly intimidation tactics-after the whole event is broken. His brother just lost. He had no fight. And yet he, still trying to be the main character in history, nobody writes about him anymore.
And let’s not forget: Albright defeated Fair Kelvin Davis. Neat. And now Keyshawn wants to rewrite the narrative of his fists behind the curtain? Grow up. Settle in the ring – If You are still allowed in one.
According to Albright, who calmly gave an interview to Marek Kriegel ESPN after defeating Kelvin Davis because of the majority decision, the whole thing began when the Davis brothers – Yes, the plural – I blew up in search of trouble.
“Keyshawn and his younger brother Keon jumped me,” said Albright on the air. “They began to approach me, and one of them put my head to mine and grabbed me. I was to get woven, but my team and everyone caught Keyshawn and everything.”
Timothy Bradley said it’s best: “His supplies just fell”
Bradley did not stop the ESPN transmission. Prosto said he was a fan of the Davis brothers- was. The time has gone through. “Do you see how you don’t control your anger? Do you see what will happen?” He said, watching how all the defeat is developing. You rarely see a broadcasting team that has been disgusted on the air. But it was not a boxing incident. It was a crash caught in 4K.
You can’t be another star if you behave like a backbone tyrant. This is not just a bad optics – it is a career reset. And if Keyshawn Davis thinks that after that he will return to the main place, he dreams.
Local cops had to remove Keyshawn from the building. That’s where we are there. From the Olympic buzz to escorted by law enforcement agencies – and for what? Pride? Ego? Jealousy?
Albright said it clear: “We have to do it now … inside the ring, not outside.” And he is right. But don’t be surprised if the next Keyshawna fight is with the commission, not another warrior.
If this is the next great boxing name, sport is in sedate trouble. When a man loses his temperament, belt and a hug of reality within 24 hours, what else is left until the fall?
