Jake Paul gives health update after brutal Anthony | Boxing News

Jake Paul is already pondering about his next battle despite confirming he suffered a damaged jaw in his bout with Anthony Joshua. The content creator lasted six rounds before being knocked out by the British boxer in Miami. The battle was slow to get going, but sparked into life with Paul breaking his jaw in two locations.

Taking to Instagram, Paul shared an X‑ray of his injury alongside the caption: “Double broken jaw. Give me Canelo in 10 days.” Paul advised he can still battle Canelo Alvarez despite having a damaged jaw.

The Mexican star pulled out of their deliberate May 2025 bout to signal a profitable multi‑battle deal with Riyadh Season in Saudi Arabia.

After the battle, Paul advised that a damaged jaw was attainable, claiming: “I think my jaw is broken, by the way. It’s definitely broke. But that was a nice little a** whopping from one of the best to ever do it.

“I like this s***, but I’m going to come back and get a championship belt at some time. I’m feeling good, that was enjoyable. I like this sport. I gave it my all, It’s f***ing loopy. I had a blast. I obtained my a** beat, but that’s what this sport is about. I’m going to come back and keep on profitable.”

Understandably, given his injuries, Paul did not attend the post‑fight press conferences. In his place, Paul’s right‑hand man Nakisa Bidarian explained: “We met with Netflix afterwards, he took a bathe, and then he drove himself to the hospital.

“A broken jaw is very common in sports, particularly in boxing or MMA and I think the recovery time from doctors we’ve already spoken to is four-six weeks.”

Meanwhile, Joshua gave Paul credit for managing to take the battle into the sixth spherical. “It wasn’t the best performance,” he admitted. “The goal was to get Jake Paul out and hurt him. Jake Paul has done really well tonight. I want to give him his props, he got up, time and time again.”
