CLEVELAND, OHIO: Jake Paul has set a new goal and is prepared to put his life at risk to achieve it. Paul is one of the most well-known figures in the digital entertainment industry. When his elder brother Logan Paul started fighting on YouTube in 2018 versus KSI, the story took off.

Despite the fact that Jake Paul's fight with Tommy Fury was an extremely difficult one, the boxer has faith in his ability. After fighting just once in 2023 (going 1–1), the YouTuber-turned-boxer hopes to turn things around by winning his next fight against Andre August.

Jake Paul's plans for 2024

In a recent interview with MMAFightingonSBN, Paul discussed his future goals. The boxer was asked by the presenter how many fights he intends to participate in the next year. In response, Paul replied, "For sure two-three and staying on that cadence…. staying sharp and growing."



 

It's not just that. Paul has made the decision to give it everything he has to win the world title. He pushes himself to get better by spending all of his time in the gym. To attain his next goal, he has put an end to all outside distractions and developed a tunnel vision.

“I’m gonna become a world champion or die trying. So, it’s kinda you know all units forward and just working towards that goal,” he added.

Paul is working hard to enhance his reputation and expertise in the boxing world. He may have to make some financial concessions as a result of this.

Jake Paul vs Andre August

Tickets for The Problem Child's forthcoming fight against August may not have sold as well as expected, despite his history of selling out arenas of considerable size, such as the American Airlines Center in the US and the Diriyah Arena in Saudi Arabia.

It is not like anything he has done before. It will be the main attraction of Paul's Most Valuable Promotions (MVP) Most Valuable Prospects IV. Notably, this match will take place in a more private setting and won't be accessible for pay-per-view.

The choice to forgo pay-per-view is the subject of speculation, with the general consensus pointing to Andre August's comparatively low star power. Instead of going with a pay-per-view strategy, Jake Paul and his group appear to have decided to webcast the match on DAZN.

It's hypothesized that Paul made this tactical change in order to build a more genuine boxing resume. Instead of depending just on high-profile MMA bouts, he chose to fight unknown opponents and get experience against committed boxers. Paul's mental and physical exertion throughout the battle is clearly visible.
