Not only that, but we also sawJake Paultake part in his fair share of fights, notably stepping into the ring withTommy Fury,Nate Diaz, and most recently,Andre August.
5. AnEsonGib vs King Kenny
With the world of influencer boxing on the rise,Kingpyn stepped into the game with ‘High Stakes’, consisting of eight male and eight female fighters competing in a tournament-style bracket.
It came down to AnEsonGib and King Kenny to make it through to the final round of the tournament. Ultimately it was a fight we never got to see, as the Kingpyn finals appears to have been postponed indefinitely after the companyallegedly lost $4 million from their first event. There’s just no telling who will come out on top of their bout if it happens.
With Wett currently holding the Misfits Flyweight title and Brooke getting ready to touch gloves with AJ Bunker for her Women’s Middleweight Championship belt, a potential fight with two titles on the line could happen at some point.
Stepping into the ring with Tommy was ‘The Problem Child’s’ first real test in the eyes of many, with his opponent coming from a prestigious family of professional boxers.
Ultimately, it was Fury who walked out on top of the fight, where after eight rounds he took home the win by a split decision — handing Jake Paul his first loss.
Nevertheless, as we close out the year the ultimate showdown between the two YouTube stars is now nowhere in sight — even despite the raging demand from theirs and even some boxing purists.
