JAKE PAUL's domination of Julio Cesar Chavez was clear to see in the damning punch stats. The Problem Child cruised to victory against the former world champion as the judges voted unanimously. 2 Paul, 28, won nine out of ten rounds in the bout at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California.

He landed 140 of his 482 thrown throughout the ten rounds, while his rival only connected with 61. Chavez Jr only threw 154 punches throughout the entire fight and bizarrely only attempted four in the first round. He did not land a single one of these as he finished the third round with only 14 punches thrown and three landing. The one positive for Chavez Jr was that his accuracy was far superior to that of Paul. JOIN SUN VEGAS: GET £50 BONUS He landed an impressive 39.4 per cent of his punches while Paul only connected with 29 per cent. His best moment came in the ninth round as he hit Paul with a solid uppercut and right hook.

He said: "I want tougher fighters. I want to be world champion. Zurdo looked slow as s*** tonight, that'd be easy work too. "Badou Jack, I want everybody. Anthony Joshua, Gervonta (Davis) and Tommy, stop running." He also sent a classy message to former adversary Ben Askrin, who is in hospital waiting for a lung transplant. 2

BREAKING NEWS Jake Paul dominates Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. as YouTuber-turned-boxer enjoys winning return to boxing
Jake Paul secured another win over another iconic boxing name with a unanimous points victory over Julio Cesar Chavez Jr on Saturday night. Chavez Jr. is the son and namesake of one of boxing's greatest ever fighters but the 39-year-old barely laid a glove on Paul for the first half of the fight.

Chavez Jr. showed flashes of life in the closing rounds but he was powerless to prevent Paul from improving his professional record to 12-1. 'The Problem Child' withstood a messy late barrage to keep alive his hopes of landing fights with some of boxing's biggest names. Paul, who was fighting for the first time since his controversial clash with Mike Tyson, won by scores of 99-91, 97-93 and 98-92.
