Jake Paul notched another win to his record and fans weren’t impressed.
On Saturday night, Paul fought “pro boxer” Ryan Bourland, who last fought in 2022, and had one fight in 6 years.
Paul, the heavy -3500 favorite vs Bourland, made quick work of Bourland in the first round via TKO after overwhelming his opponent.

During a recent podcast appearance, Paul said that he wants to take a more traditional boxing route instead of fighting MMA fighers/influencers in the hopes of fighting for a world championship someday.
“I want to take this more traditional boxing route of moving up into the rankings, fighting professionals, and taking the route to become world champion. Like the prospect of my caliber would be doing. We’re looking at some pro boxers, and they’re not gonna be big names. I want to challenge myself, continue to grow in this sport and get to the top of it.”
Jake Paul calls out Canelo Alvarez after knocking out Ryan Bourland: "Canelo, stop ducking, I know you want it. I'm repping Puerto Rico, you're repping Mexico, so it's Mexico vs Puerto Rico. I want Canelo. I'm the face of this sport. Who's doing more for boxing than me?"
