His double jaw fracture and the four titanium plates placed to treat it did not demobilize him. This Tuesday, four days after his defeat by KO against Anthony Joshua in English boxing, Jake Paul returned to this fight in the podcast “Impaulsive” and looked forward to the rest of his career. And the American already has a name in mind: Francis Ngannou.
“I won two rounds, then he won two, and then I was knocked out,” he first explained to summarize his duel against Joshua. I did well, but I think my cardio, the mental pressure against such a big opponent and the fights against heavyweights are different with these specific gloves. But it was a great experience, I learned a lot there. »
“Like there was a baseball in my jaw”
The Youtuber was nevertheless knocked out by a beautiful right hook in the 6th round. “It’s like there’s a baseball in there,” he smiled. It’s literally broken, completely broken. I said to myself: wow, that’s nice. I was on the ground and I said to myself: it was a good move. He surprised me on the jaw. »
Despite this knockout, Jake Paul wants to go back. No doubt because he received 78 million euros for this fight, but also because of his love of sport and provocation. His next target? Francis Ngannou, also beaten by Anthony Joshua in March 2024. “I told everyone that I would do better than Francis,” he recalled. He doesn’t really have a chin. I think now he might accept. » The challenge is launched.
