Influencer turned boxer Jake Paul takes on the 2012 Olympic gold medalist and two-time unified world champion Anthony Joshua on Dec. 19 in Miami, Florida. He’ll enter the bout a sizable underdog.

Paul was initially scheduled to face Gervonta “Tank” Davis in an exhibition bout on Nov. 14, but the struggle promotion and Netflix canceled the match after a lawsuit was filed against Davis alleging home violence. In an sudden twist, Paul now faces the largest opponent he is ever stepped in the ring with and his hardest problem by leaps and bounds.

“I’m betting on this b*tch,” Diaz wrote on Instagram accompanied by a receipt exhibiting a $20,000 bet positioned on Paul. If “The Problem Child” defeats Joshua, Diaz will bank $142,000. 

Diaz has been in the ring with Paul before. The two fought in August 2023 with Paul defeating Diaz via unanimous determination. He was in consideration to step in to face Paul a second time after the struggle with Davis unraveled.
