Jake Paul’s “copycat” after Anthony Joshua’s knockout
Published
9 months agoon
Jake Paul emulates boxing icon Floyd Mayweather in his latest social media offering following his weekend knockout loss to Anthony Joshua in Miami, Florida. The American showed off his fighting earnings in a photo that also showed an array of firearms aboard a private plane.
Former two-time heavyweight champion and Olympic gold medalist Joshua, 36, knocked down the 28-year-old YouTuber-turned-professional boxer during the sixth round of their heavyweight clash at the Kaseya Center in the early hours of Saturday morning. Joshua’s right hand proved so devastating that Paul’s jaw suffered multiple fractures, requiring immediate post-competition surgical intervention. Despite the injury adding to the pain of the defeat, the American boxer remained extremely busy on social media platforms after the fight, with a recent Instagram post showing his fight bag of bundles of $100 bills scattered on the floor of a private jet while brandishing several firearms.
“The American Dream [US flag emoji]. Get started today. Believe it. Fail. Work. Fail. To learn. Fail. Never stop,” wrote Paul, who could be seen clutching a gold-plated magnum and puffing on a cigar. The upload shows similarities to photos shared by former fellow boxer “Money” Mayweather in previous years.
The former five-division world champion often posed with his millions in cash after major fights during his 21-year professional career. Paul has already praised the sport and declared his intention to continue boxing, with his goal of winning world titles, especially in the cruiserweight division, once he has fully recovered.
Nevertheless, he faces a mandatory 60-day medical suspension before he can compete again following his knockout defeat. Meanwhile, after his triumph, Joshua openly called out Tyson Fury for a potential future fight, suggesting he would apply the upcoming fight as a stepping stone to a heavyweight showdown.
After the fight, he told Ariel Helwani: “First of all, I want to give love to the crowd that came out. I really appreciate everyone in this stadium. Look, it wasn’t the best performance. It wasn’t the best. The ultimate goal was to get Jake Paul… pin him down and hurt him.”
“That was the request that came to my mind. It took a little longer than I expected, but the right hand finally found the target. Jake Paul… he did really well today. I want to give him support. He got up. Time after time. It was complex for him there, but he still tried to find a way.”
“It takes a real man to do that. We always tell anyone who laces up those gloves that we show him respect. We have to show Jake respect for trying and trying and trying. Good job. But…tonight he faced a real fighter who has been off for 15 months. We’ve shaken off the cobwebs and I can’t wait to get into 2026.”
“And if Tyson Fury is as earnest as he thinks he is, and he wants to put his fingers down on Twitter, put on the gloves, go out and fight one of the truest fighters who will take on any challenge. Step into the ring with me next if you’re a real bad boy. Don’t do it all by saying, ‘AJ this, AJ that.’ See you in the ring and let’s talk with our fists.”

Lewis Crocker vs. Liam Paro – large fight preview and predictions
Published
3 months agoon
June 23, 2026
On Wednesday, Lewis Crocker heads to Australia to defend his IBF welterweight world title against Liam Paro for the first time.
Crocker will face Paro at the Pat Rafter Arena in Queensland, live on DAZN in the UK and Kayo Sports in Australia.
Crocker (22-0, 11 KO) became world champion in September, defeating Paddy Donovan twice before winning the rematch by split decision.
Man from Belfast recorded his second victory over Donovan after the first victory in March last year, and his rival was disqualified for hitting him after the bell.
Paro (27-1, 16 KO) is trying to become a world champion in two weight categories, having previously reigned in the super-lightweight division.
The 30-year-old won the title with a unanimous decision victory over Subriel Matias in Puerto Rico before winning the belt in his first defense against Richardson Hitchins.
The Australian has since won twice, overtaking David Papot in his last appearance in September.

McKean meets Taliva
Heavyweight Demsey McKean will look to continue his rebuild when he faces Liam Talivaa for the vacant IBF Pan Pacific title.
McKean (24-2, 16 KO) had his career cut miniature after a last-round loss to Filip Hrgovic, followed by a brutal first-round loss to Moses Itauma.
The 35-year-old southpaw returned to winning ways with back-to-back stoppage victories.
Talivaa (8-2, 4 KO) last won the IBF Oceania-Orient title, defeating Faiga Opelu by first-round stoppage.
Undercard remaining
At cruiserweight, Luke Modini (13-0, 11 KO) will likely need distance to beat Peng Qu (17-2-1, 12 KO), while Riley Candy (8-1, 5 KO) could stop Nathan Watson (11-3, 3 KO) at super middleweight.
Vegas Larfield (13-1, 9 KO) can hand Shamal Ram Anuj (11-8, 8 KO) his fourth defeat in a row in a featherweight clash.
Heavyweight Nelson Asofa-Solomon (2-0, 2 KO) can secure a third straight knockout over debutant George Burgess, and Stevan Ivic (8-0-1, 2 KO) can do the same against Caleb Tialu (3-7, 3 KO), also a heavyweight.
Prospective super welterweight fighter Jack Javed (1-0) should overtake Lance McDonald (1-5-1, 1 KO).
