Jake Paul’s return to the ring is just one day away, a fight in which he will face Andre August, the most experienced professional boxer he has faced in his career.
Although the bout, set for 8 rounds with a weight limit of 200 pounds, has not generated the interest of other fights involving ‘The Problem Child’, he considers it a crucial bout given his aspirations to be the world champion.

So far, the 26-year-old fighter has mostly fought retired MMA stars or fellow YouTube stars. The only fighter he has faced previously is Tommy Fury, who defeated him last February.
And now it seems Paul is satisfied with the financial gains those fights have provided him, and he is ready to forgo the money in exchange for fighting a real professional boxer, The Sun notes.
