Jake Paul Reveals Potential Fight with Anthony Joshua

Heavyweight boxer and YouTuber Jake Paul has revealed that he and former unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua have already spoken about the possibility of a future fight—and it’s more than just talk.

“I spoke to Anthony on the phone. We’re planning it for 2026. He called me and said, ‘I saw you calling me out,’ and added, ‘Let’s make it happen. Let’s set it up,” Paul said.

While the idea may sound far-fetched, Eddie Hearn, Joshua’s promoter, has previously said he wouldn’t be opposed to such a fight—even as early as this year.
