"I heard it's Joe Biden" - Fans react to footage of Jake Paul training for "NEXT OPPONENT" nearly two months after Mike Tyson win

Combat sport fans around the globe had contrasting opinions regarding Jake Paul's most recent training session. Many fans made their guesses on the YouTuber-turned-boxer's next opponent.

Paul has a professional record of 11-1, including seven knockout wins, demonstrating his success in the boxing arena. However, due to his reputation for taking on opponents who are far older or past their prime, his fights have been tainted by controversy.

Paul's company Most Valuable Promotions recently took to X and shared a clip of him training for his next fight, with its caption reading as:

"Jake Paul is back to training for his NEXT OPPONENT 👀 HOW’S HE LOOKIN?"

Check out the post below:

Fans soon rushed to the comments section to share their reactions.

One fan wrote:

''I heard it's Joe Biden.''

Another one stated:

''Looking good! He will definitely beat a 58-year-old in his next fight.''

Other fans wrote:

''@jakepaul found out @RicFlairNatrBoy coming out of retirement for one more match, so he’s going to challenge the #NatureBoy to a boxing match.''

''Can't lie. Gotta give respect to Jake Paul. From YouTube to a legit boxer. That takes dedication and hard work. @jakepaul... fantasy fight. Jake Paul vs. Deontae Wilder 2025."

Paul is anticipated to make his MMA debut this year after signing with PFL in 2023. In an interview with Sportskeeda last year, PFL CEO Peter Murray claimed that 'The Problem Child' would face a formidable and well-established opponent. Notably, Paul has called out MMA stars like Nate Diaz and Conor McGregor on numerous occasions but that didn't materialize.

In his recent boxing appearance last year, Paul faced legend Mike Tyson in a heavyweight bout which was live streamed on Netflix. Their contest ended in favor of Paul via unanimous decision, with netizens bashing both the fighters for their mediocre performance.
