Jake Paul Wins Boxing Match Against Hasim Rahman Jr.
Paul Maintains Undefeated Record
YouTube Sensation Continues to Impress in the Ring
Jake Paul added another victory to his professional boxing record on Sunday, defeating Hasim Rahman Jr. by knockout in the sixth round. The fight, which headlined a pay-per-view card in Diriyah, Saudi Arabia, was Paul's first since March when he knocked out Ryan Bourland in the first round.
Paul, 25, is now 6-0 as a professional boxer. The YouTube sensation has quickly become one of the most talked-about fighters in the sport, thanks to his success in the ring and his large social media following.
Rahman, 31, is a former world heavyweight champion and was considered a significant step up in competition for Paul. However, Paul was able to control the fight from the outset, landing several hard punches that visibly rocked Rahman.
In the sixth round, Paul landed a devastating right hand that sent Rahman crashing to the canvas. Rahman was unable to beat the count, giving Paul the knockout victory.
With the win, Paul continues to bolster his case as a legitimate boxer. While he has yet to face a top-level opponent, his impressive performances thus far have put him on the radar of several high-profile fighters.
It remains to be seen what the future holds for Paul, but he is undoubtedly one of the most exciting fighters in boxing today. His combination of power, speed, and charisma makes him a fan favorite, and it is only a matter of time before he gets his chance to prove himself against the very best.
