It’s going to be a while until Jake Paul will be allowed to fight again.
Two weeks ago, Paul had his jaw broken in two places by Anthony Joshua during their fight in Miami, Florida.

Over the weekend, Paul told DAZN that he had to get four plates implanted in his jaw due to the injury.
“I got four plates in my jaw but that’s part of the sport. The healing process has been a little bit tough.”
“I’m a little bit tired, it’s hard to sleep, I go onto the pillow and then my jaw twerks up to the left and I wake up so.
“It’s all part of the sport and it was an amazing night and I learned a lot, gained a lot of experience and we’re moving onto more fights this year.
According to MMA Fighting, Paul received an indefinite medical suspension from the state of Florida and will be required to get medical clearance from a doctor before he can return to boxing.

On Sunday, the Florida Athletic Commission confirmed the medical suspensions to MMA Fighting that were handed down from the card held in Miami in December. Paul headlined the list of suspended athletes with an indefinite suspension after his jaw was broken in two places in the sixth round.
Paul insists that he plans to fight again in 2026, but we’ll have to wait and see how his jaw heals up.
