Jake Paul confirms next fight date after calling out Tommy Fury and KSI
Jake Paul has confirmed he will fight again in 2023 with his next bout scheduled for December 15.
Just two days after watching his brother Logan convincingly beat Dillon Danis at the Misfits Boxing card, Jake announced his own return to the ring.
“[Eight] fights in the boxing game and I’m already its biggest name,” Paul said in a press release. “I’ve proved that I can headline the biggest global events and defy the odds. PPV after PPV after PPV, and I’m just getting started.
“My mission is to be a world champion and I’m willing to do whatever it takes to get there. December 15th is the next step on my journey, and I promise you’re not going to want to miss it.”

An opponent has not been confirmed but Paul on Saturday called out Tommy Fury for a rematch before adding that he wanted to "decapitate" KSI, who lost to Fury by unanimous decision in the main event.
“The Tommy Fury rematch is right there,” Paul said. “Tommy’s going to want that payday. Payday, Tommy. But knowing where I’m going, my improvement, my new team that I have, my new mindset and elevating every single day in the boxing gym, from what I saw in Tommy, I know in the rematch I’m going to beat that guy. I’m going to show ya’ll how to take a loss, come back, win against Nate Diaz and win again when it’s time to put it all on the line.
“Respect to Tommy for remaining undefeated, 10-0. I’m excited to run that back as soon as we can.”
