Is it the end of Jake Paul

Do you think it's the end for him now in the boxing ring?
I'm guessing it is but he will carry on with a boxing promotion and have a decent stable of boxers.
And, I can see his boxers will be well paid and looked after.

Yeah honestly I do suspect he's gonna transition to something else. I'm calling it now that I'll bet he's gonna make his WWE debut in the near future.
If you know Wrestling it honestly just kinda makes perfect sense as a logical route for him to go. Especially with his brother already being there, and being established in that genre. It's something where he can pretend to be a tough guy, continue selling himself as such, but never have to actually take any risks.
If he actually seriously gave it a go as a Cruiserweight that could be interesting, but I'll bet that broken jaw, and having to eat only liquids for damn near a month and a half is going to have him reconsidering this Boxing stuff, and who could blame him?

I think he is retired, he wants to go into bodybuilding and is planning to 'put on muscle' and get up to 300 pounds off season, can find the video of him talking about it if you want to see it, quite enlightening.

I just really don't want to see his name in the B&I section. I know, I'm miserable.

Logan is actually really good in WWE, very impressive athlete. Would definitely make a lot of business sense for them to become tag team champions, then have the inevitable split + brotherly feud down the line

I think you might be wrong lad, especially with the WWE scenarios, no broken jaw in that game.

i trained with a guy who fought tate in his 5th fight. said he was very awkward and hit hard, particularly his kicks. he also said the family were complete gents, expecially the father. This guys still fighting, albeit at a lower unlicenced level in his 50s.

Both brothers wrestled at state level I believe. Definitely both were on school /college team. Very hard sport.

This plus the sheer frequency of the event schedule. They are all in absolute bits. Concussions, spine, joints, shoulders. That pro-wrestling shit is insanely hard on the body, you're a crash test dummy 100 days a year.

Not if you're a YouTube superstar you're not. Logan Paul only wrestles like 10 or so matches a year. He doesn't work as often as most of the others on the WWE Roster, and I suspect Jake Paul would be the same. They're more like Special Attractions than full time Wrestlers because of their celebrity status before ever getting involved with WWE.
Similar to their place in Boxing.

I think he’s going to make more noise than ever now.
He’ll go down to cruserweight and try and pick up a belt.

I think he will carry on at CW but it will be interesting to see how that knockout affects him mentally. Especially as he now has titanium plates in his jaw which might make him reluctant to take punches again. Sometimes losing by KO takes something from a fighter.

If he’s got any sense he’ll go back to YouTubing. That’s a terrible injury

And if he legit starts trying to mix with top rated Cruiserweights or anywhere near Top rated Cruiserweights the chances of another broken jaw, or broken nose or busted eardrum or split eye becomes all the more likely.
He's already made like 200 Mil just doing the bullsh*t fights he's done. How motivated could he really be to put himself through it when the going gets tough?
I could see him maybe fighting another bout or two that he'd be favored in just to exit the sport as a Winner, but he may not even do that. I wouldn't if I were him. I think it would only slow down his momentum for a WWE run which would be more lucrative in the long term, and in all likelihood safer for him.

He.ll stick with boxing for a while at least . Milk to death i took an heavyweight 2 time champ 6 rnds . Tell the world hes gonna go down and win a world titles .. He.ll then buy one maybee one of the lower newer ones . Perhaos Sulliman will sell him a Wbc .
And do not be so naive has to think it could never happen . ITS BOXING

He said he wants to be a cruiserweight world champion. Maybe he could for a minor sanctioning body, but not one of the four majors or the quasi-major IBO in my opinion unless one of the champions vacated and they matched him up against a boxer rated 90-100 on computer ratings.

Losing to Tommy Fury was the end. Surviving six rounds against Anthony Joshua is his best win.

If he beats a fringe CW contender he'll get a top 10 ranking and a title shot. The money's just too good. The question is if he can actually beat a top 20 CW?

I think he will steer clear of any Top 30 professionals unless WBC somehow contrive a title fight for him. AJ was his Everest and he spent it running around base camp.
Reckon he will go back to his faded UFC fighter roster. I'd like to see him face Darren Till as I'm happy for either to lose.

People were interested in seeing him get KO'd. Now they've seen it.
