Jake Paul Scores Unanimous Decision Victory Over Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. in Cruiserweight Bout

Jake Paul Triumphs Over Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. in Decisive Victory

Jake Paul emerged victorious against Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. via unanimous decision in a 10-round cruiserweight clash. The bout, held at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California, saw Paul dominate his opponent, solidifying his position in the boxing world.

The judges' scorecards reflected Paul's dominance, reading 99-91, 97-93, and 98-92, all in favor of the YouTube star turned boxer.

This win marks Paul's sixth consecutive victory since his loss to Tommy Fury in February 2023. Notably, this streak includes a victory against heavyweight legend Mike Tyson in November.

Chavez, a former WBC middleweight world champion, now stands at (54-7-1, 34 KOs). He captured the WBC title in June 2011 with a majority decision over Sebastian Zbik and defended it successfully three times. This fight marked Chavez's third consecutive appearance in the cruiserweight division.

The stakes were high for Paul in this high-profile fight. A victory over Chavez could potentially propel him into the WBC rankings at 200 pounds, bringing him closer to his ambition of contending for a world title.

Mauricio Sulaiman, the WBC president, had previously stated to ESPN, "The WBC ratings committee has been following Jake Paul's career. If he defeats Chavez, and depending on how the fight plays out, the committee will make the decision. It's very likely [Paul will be ranked] if he wins convincingly."
