Jake Paul vs. Ryan Bourland payout: How much money 'The Problem Child' and 'The Rhino' will make for March 2 fight

Jake Paul is poised to face Ryan Bourland in an eight-round cruiserweight bout this Saturday (March 2) at El Coliseo de Puerto Rico in San Juan.

The matchup will be the co-main event, with women's featherweight champion Amanda Serrano defending her IBF, WBA, and WBO titles against Nina Meinke in the headliner of the fight card.

The YouTuber-turned-boxer secured a first-round knockout victory against Andre August last December. This upcoming match will be Paul's third bout against a professional boxer, the first of which resulted in a split-decision loss to Tommy Fury in February 2023.

'The Problem Child' boasts an 8-1 record since making his professional debut in 2020, including five knockout victories despite lacking an amateur career.

Meanwhile, his opponent holds a career record of 17-2, with six wins coming by knockout. 'The Rhino' has previously attained the title of Golden Gloves champion and has competed at the national junior Olympic level in boxing. The 35-year-old's most recent bout resulted in a fifth-round TKO triumph over Santario Martin in September 2022.

In past matchups, Paul raked in a reported $2 million facing Tyron Woodley and $1.5 million when taking on Anderson Silva. His showdown with Fury saw him pocket approximately $3.2 million. In his last bout against August, the Ohio native earned an estimated $5-7 million, with his opponent also banking nearly $2 million. With these figures in mind, it's anticipated that both Paul and Bourland will see comparable paydays for their upcoming clash.
