About this person
Jake Joseph Paul was born January 17, 1997, and started posting videos on Vine in September 2013, racking up 5.3 million followers before the platform folded. He launched his YouTube channel in May 2014 and became one of Forbes' highest-paid creators of the 2010s and 2020s, parlaying that into acting roles in Dance Camp (2016) and a two-year run on Disney Channel's Bizaardvark (2016-2018). His first boxing match came in August 2018 against Deji Olatunji, a white-collar bout he won by technical knockout, then turned professional in January 2020 against AnEsonGib and spent the next few years beating former basketball players and retired MMA fighters - Nate Robinson, Ben Askren, Tyron Woodley twice, Anderson Silva. He lost to Tommy Fury by split decision in February 2023, his first fight against an active professional boxer, then built a winning streak before his November 2024 bout against Mike Tyson drew the biggest boxing gate in U.S. history outside Las Vegas.
