Jake Paul wants to fight for gold. He believes he has a legitimate path to being a contender with a win against Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. on June 28. The fight in California airs on DAZN.
The fight is the first for Paul (11-1) since facing Mike Tyson in November. “The Problem Child” has caused a stir in the boxing world due to his personality, among other things. If he wins, Paul will be ranked at the cruiserweight level.
Chavez (54-6-1) is a former middleweight champion in 2011. The 39-year-old last fought in July, his first fight in three years. He recently participated in a residential treatment program after being arrested on felony gun possession charges. The son of a legend is now focused on reviving his career.
The co-main event will see Gilberto Ramirez defend the WBA and WBO cruiserweight titles against Yuniel Dorticos.

Dorticos (27-2) is a former WBA and IBF cruiserweight champion. The Cuban is on a three-fight win streak but has fought once since 2022.
