Jake Paul scorecards revealed with YouTube star DOMINATING Julio Cesar Chavez Jr after losing just ONE round
JAKE PAUL's dominating win over Julio Cesar Chavez Jr was clear to see after the scorecards were revealed. The YouTuber-turned-boxer secured an easy victory against the Mexican at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California. 4 4 4 Paul, 28, controlled the fight as he was named the unanimous winner by the judges. Chavez struggled to get forward in the fight until the final few rounds. This was reflected in the judges' cards as Paul claimed every single round except for just ONE. The scorecard shows that in round nine, two judges thought that Chavez was the winner 10-9 over Paul. It was far too little, far too late for Chavez to claw back a points victory as Paul had already won the first eight rounds. His fight back was also short-lived as two of the three judges also gave round 10 to Paul. The Problem Child has given his verdict on the victory as he hit out at his critics. He said: "All the boos are words and actions speak louder than words so you can shut the f*** up. JOIN SUN VEGAS: GET £50 BONUS "I beat your boy. Nah he is a warrior but so am I. "I think I did great against a former world champion who has never been stopped and I dominated him. "Yeah 100 per cent I'm staying active, I'm fighting everybody. "I'll fight anyone, any time, anywhere, any place." Paul also took the opportunity to call out British boxing icon Anthony Joshua. It comes a day after AJ sent him a message urging him to be careful what he wishes for. Meanwhile, Chavez admitted that he is ready for more fights after the bout with the YouTuber. 4

Jake Paul vs Julio Cesar Chavez Jr live: Fight time and how to watch
Jake Paul called out a who's who of world boxing as he sets his sights on a world title after scoring a dominant win over Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. The 28-year-old singled out cruiserweight champions Gilberto 'Zurdo' Ramirez and Badou Jack, former heavyweight kingpin Anthony Joshua, reality TV star Tommy Fury and Gervonta Davis. Noticeably absent from that list was Aussie IBF cruiserweight world champion Jai Opetaia, who also has his eyes on Zurdo Ramirez. Jake Paul celebrates after his win against Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. Picture: AP Photo Paul was too big and too strong for the former middleweight world champion Chavez Jr, winning a lacklustre unanimous decision with scores of 99-91, 97-93 and 98-92. He then used his post-fight speech to line-up his next opponent. 'I want tougher fighters. I want to be world champion,' Paul said afterwards. 'Zurdo looked slow and shit tonight. 'That'd be easy work. 'Badou Jack, Anthony Joshua, Gervonta (Davis). Tommy (Fury) stop running. 'I'm just getting warmed up in this shit. I'm ready. I'll stay active and fight everybody. There's a long line. I've got time, I'll take on anyone, any time, any place.' Jake Paul and Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. during their cruiserweight bout. Picture: AFP Ramirez defended his WBO and WBA cruiserweight titles in an ugly unanimous decision win over Yuniel Dorticos on Paul's undercard, and immediately called for a fight with Opetaia. 'That's the fight I want. I'm the king,' he said of Opetaia. 'Make sure you get my phone number and call me. 'No one calls me. I want it.' Opetaia was scheduled to be in the arena to confront Zurdo, but the face-to-face meeting didn't eventuate. Paul has called out Joshua several times in the past, and was in line for an exhibition bout with Gervonta 'Tank' Davis before the American's shock draw with Lamont Roach in March. Jake Paul punches Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. during their cruiserweight bout. Picture: AP Photo Meanwhile, Fury – younger brother of Tyson Fury and former Love Island star – is the only man to beat Paul, scoring a split decision win in 2023 that 'The Problem Child' wants to avenge. In the main event, Chavez Jr – the son of Mexican all-time great Julio Cesar Chavez – barely threw any punches in a frustrating opening three rounds. The bout finally came to life in round nine when Chavez Jr threw caution into the wing and began attacking properly. Paul was caught on the chin and held on in the final round, but Chavez Jr ran out of time. Known as the Problem Child, Paul was nearly drowned out in boos as he spoke in the ring afterwards. 'All the boos are awards and actions speak louder than words,' he said. 'I'm him. I just beat your boy's ass. 'Wait till I get going even more, mother****rs. He's a tough guy, he's never been stopped. 'He's a Mexican warrior. I respect Mexico, but I'm a warrior and I came out on top tonight. 'It was flawless. He just survived, I did great. 10 rounds against a former world champion who's never been stopped. 'He went the distance with Canelo and I embarrassed him.' It was Paul's first fight since his win over Mike Tyson in November, while Chavez Jr – the son of Mexican legend Julio Cesar Chavez – is a former world champion.

Jake Paul vs Julio César Chávez Jr: Tips, odds, and betting predictions
SEVEN months after his controversial fight with Mike Tyson, Jake Paul is lacing up his gloves once again. The Problem Child will come face-to-face with former WBC middleweight champion Julio César Chávez Jr in Anaheim, California, in what will be one of the toughest tests of his career to date. Join us as we take a look at the fight and select the best bets to place on Jake Paul vs Chávez Jr this weekend. 🥊 Jake Paul vs Julio César Chávez Jr odds Despite Chávez's experience, it is clear the former champion is past his best, and this is reflected in the odds, with SBK pricing Jake Paul as the clear favourite. Jake Paul vs Julio César Chávez Jr fight outcome odds The method of victory markets provide punters with more flexibility, offering excellent odds on César Chávez winning by point and by decision with Betfred. Is Jake Paul getting KO'd? There is no denying that Jake Paul has improved in the ring since his first fight in 2020, even winning over some boxing fans thanks to his wins against boxers like Andre August and Ryan Bourland. However, many still believe he is avoiding difficult fights, and that while Chavez is undoubtedly a step up from his previous opponents, he has not been at his best for a long time. You can expect a strong display from Paul at the weekend. His publicity-stunt fight against Mike Tyson in November last year backfired on him somewhat, with many calling The Problem Child out for essentially beating up an old man. Paul will look to regain some of the respect he lost there with a confident performance in California. Stats: Is Chavez Jr going to be a problem for 'The Problem Child?' Julio Chavez Jr is undoubtedly going to be the biggest test of Jake Paul's career. At one point, Chavez Jr was earmarked to be one of the brightest stars in boxing. The wheels come off a little in the second half of his career, though. After losing to Sergio Martinez in 2012, the former WBC middleweight champion has lost six out of 14 fights and has only fought once since 2021. Notably, Chavez Jr came up short in a crossover bout with UFC legend Anderson Silva in June 2021. Paul and Silva met a little over 12 months later, with Paul coming out on top by unanimous decision. Chavez is far from his best, and these kinds of results highlight that. Stats: 👉 Paul vs Chavez Jr betting tips With the outright markets not offering much value on Saturday night, I have picked the following three bets as the best to place on Jake Paul vs Julio César Chávez Jr on Saturday night. Jake Paul KO/TKO/DQ Jake Paul is the heavy favourite for Saturday's fight, coming in at 2/11 with SBK. This might surprise some people, but it is not really a surprise when you look at Chavez's record over the last decade. The former champ's best days are behind him, and he is getting an easy paycheck here. Paul will want to display his power here and will see a stoppage victory on Saturday as a serious statement of his boxing credentials. Whether the boxing world does, though, is another matter. Fight not to go the distance Three of Jake Paul's last four fights have not gone the distance, with The Problem Child scoring stoppage victories over Mike Perry, Ryan Bourland, and Andre August. Chavez is undoubtedly a step-up from these, but Paul's size and raw power are going to prove too much for the Mexican star. ➡️ Back the fight not to go the distance at 5/4 with Betfred Julio César Chávez Jr by points If you are considering backing Chavez to have his hand raised at the end of the night, then backing him to win by decision at 12/1 with Betfred offers excellent value. Chavez has only secured two stoppage victories in his last 14 fights, and as he approaches 40, there will be questions about whether he has the power to take out a younger fighter like Paul. However, he certainly possesses the ring IQ and skill to outbox him, and if he comes into Saturday's fight looking for redemption, a boxing masterclass against the sport's most controversial star would certainly be a big step in the right direction. ➡️ Bet on Chávez Jr to win by decision at 12/1 with Betfred 📺 How to watch Jake Paul vs Julio César Chávez Jr Location: Honda Centre, Anaheim, California Date and time: 28th June local, 29th June UK - Ring walks expected 4 am UK How to watch: DAZN PPV, £24.99 in the UK Jake Paul vs Julio César Chávez Jr undercard The most interesting fight on this weekend's undercard pits Gilberto Ramirez against Yuniel Dorticos. Ramirez will put his WBO cruiserweight title on the line following his victory over Chris Billam-Smith in Riyadh last year. Ramirez is looking to score a first stoppage victory in four years, and is heavy favourite for the match, with BetVictor pricing him at 1/9 and his opponent at 11/2. Holly Holm's long-awaited return to the ring will also take place in California this weekend. Holm will lace up her boxing gloves for the first time in 12 years when she takes on Yolanda Vega. While Holm has not had a professional bout since 2013, she has been one of the most dominant forces in the UFC over the last decade and will look to prove she still has it with a strong performance against Vega.
