On the night of December 19–20, 2025, a major boxing event took place in Miami, headlined by American influencer Jake Paul (12–1, 7 KO) facing former world champion Anthony Joshua (28–4, 25 KO). The fight was scheduled for 8 rounds in the heavyweight division (over 90.7 kg).
From the very first round, Joshua showcased his class, landing several powerful right-hand shots, and his technical superiority only grew as the fight progressed. The third and fourth rounds remained under Joshua's control, and at the end of the fourth, Jake Paul briefly touched the canvas, though no official knockdown was recorded. The referee warned both fighters to keep the fight clean.
The fifth round proved decisive: Paul was knocked down twice and barely withstood Joshua’s powerful combinations. In the sixth round, Anthony scored a third knockdown and ended the fight by knockout, securing a convincing victory.
