Where was Jake Paul born and brought up?

Jake Paul extended his perfect professional record to 6-0 with his recent win over Anderson Silva.

Paul was born in 1997 in the city of Cleveland, Ohio, to realtor Gregory Allen Paul and his wife Pamela Ann Stepnick. The two raised Jake and his brother Logan in Westlake, Ohio, 12 miles away from Cleveland.

Paul was schooled at West Lake High School before dropping out to pursue his career as a social media content creator. He shot to fame on the social media platform Vine and after it was discontinued, he launched his YouTube channel.

The Paul brothers began filming themselves as kids and channeled their passion into their YouTube channels as they grew immensely popular. Their popularity helped them cash in on their boxing interests as they went up against other popular YouTube stars such as KSI and Deji.

Paul made his professional boxing debut against YouTuber AnEnsonGib in January 2020, and hasn't looked back ever since. He has continued to seek out high-profile fights, with mixed martial arts retirees heavily in the mix.

Jake Paul calls out Nate Diaz after his win against Anderson Silva

Jake Paul won his eight-round bout against former UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva via unanimous decision. The fairly even fight was perhaps tipped further in Paul's favor after he knocked down 'The Spider' in the last round of the fight.

After his win, 'The Problem Child' called out two of his critics. MMA fan favorite Nate Diaz and boxing super middleweight world champion Canelo Alvarez were both mentioned by Paul in his post-fight interview:

"Anderson is just the start, baby. I want Nate Diaz, who's a b*tch? He tried to come into my locker room. He tried to cause some sh*t and then he always leaves the f***ing arena. So Nate Diaz, stop being a b*tch and fight me. And Canelo [Saul Alvarez], you too. You too, Canelo. You guys said, 'Oh you can't beat someone, you can't beat a striker, you can't beat a legend like Anderson Silva.' I just did it so why can't I beat Canelo? F*** ya'll!"
