Confirming the news that Jake Paul had signed with Showtime Boxing, Jake Paul's advisor Nakisa Bidarian told ESPN Wednesday that:

"Jake is proud of the events he participated in with Triller and appreciates the opportunities they afforded him. Jake is excited to continue his boxing career with Showtime Boxing. Fight announcement coming soon."

Moving from Triller to Showtime, Jake Paul has cemented his legitimacy in the boxing scene. He joins the network with heavy-duty names from the industry like Mike Tyson, Manny Pacquiao, and Floyd Mayweather Jr., among others.

Jake Paul's boxing record is currently 3-0, with all three fights ending in knockouts. His latest bout against Ben Askren saw the latter get flattened within the first round itself.

While no details regarding money or tenure have been shared yet, the deal remains an enigma for fans. More details are expected to surface soon.
