Jake Paul aims for a boxing return in late 2026 or early 2027 after undergoing a second jaw surgery following his knockout loss to Anthony Joshua in December. Paul states, "I got my second surgery recently and the doctor said it will be four, five or six months to even be able to spar." This timeline pushes his potential fight to late this year or early next year. Paul, now 12-2, suffered a broken jaw in two places during his December 19 matchup with Joshua, leading to surgery the next day and a follow-up procedure in February. He plans to compete at cruiserweight moving forward, stating, "Definitely will be a cruiserweight. Joshua's punches hurt way more than people in my weight class." Paul looks to climb the rankings and make an impact in the division.
