Jake Paul Netflix Documentary: All the details

Jake Paul was undoubtedly among those least expected to make a massive splash in the boxing world.

The 26-year-old rose to fame after his acting stint on the Disney show Bizaardvark and made his professional boxing debut against fellow YouTuber AnEsonGib in January 2020.

After winning his debut via first-round TKO, Paul went on an impressive five-fight win streak, which included victories over prominent MMA stars like Anderson Silva, Tyron Woodley, and Ben Askren. He was handed his first loss by Tommy Fury, who beat him via a close split decision. He is now set to face former UFC superstar Nate Diaz on August 5.

A maestro of weaponizing notoriety, 'The Problem Child' is now among the biggest names in the influencer boxing space and is looking to cement his status as a "real" boxer. His episode on Netflix's 'Untold' series is a step in that direction.

According to reports, the 70-minute episode will go over the Ohio native's journey from being an internet sensation to "the most polarizing man in sports."

The documentary is built on captivating interviews with Paul's elder brother Logan Paul, their parents, fans, and fellow pugilists. The climax of the episode will show a nail-biting match between Paul and an unknown opponent.
