How much Jake Paul has earned as he eyes top spot on Forbes’ highest-paid list

Posted by

Jake Paul is one of the richest boxers in the world, and he has no problems flaunting his wealth. 

The Problem Child has admitted that he enjoys fans wanting him to be knocked out.

The YouTuber-turned-boxer will face Julio Cesar Chavez Jr in the next match this weekend, and it gives him an opportunity to extend his winning record.

He boasts a record of 11-1, with his only defeat coming against  Tommy Fury in 2023.

Paul has earned a massive $100m in the ring, and he is close to becoming the highest-paid boxer on Forbes’ list.

The 28-year-old told SunSport: “I don’t think they’ll ever show me love, to be honest. To conduct the orchestra, you must turn your back on the audience.

“So I know what I’m doing, I’m just playing a game. People want to tune in to see me lose or the doubters, all of this stuff.

“But, at the end of the day, there’s just as much love that, and that’s what I focus on.”

He is ranked third in Forbes’ list of highest-earning content creators.

He banked $50m (£36m) with $40m (£30m) of that made in his last fight against Mike Tyson, who made a sensational return to the boxing ring at age 58.

Paul also earned $30m (£20m) in defeat to Tommy Fury.
