Jake Paul Faces Anthony Joshua tonight in high stakes boxing showdown with 10% win chance for Paul

YouTube star-turned-boxer Jake Paul (28) is set to face British heavyweight world champion Anthony Joshua (36) in a highly anticipated and widely criticised boxing showdown.

The bout, scheduled for Florida, will end a 14-month absence from the ring for 36-year-old Joshua, while representing the biggest and most dangerous test yet for 28-year-old Paul since he launched his professional boxing career in 2020.

Paul has long insisted he wants to measure himself against the sport’s most feared punchers, the kind of fighter many professionals spend a lifetime avoiding, and the clash with Joshua fulfils that ambition.

The fight will take place on Friday, December 19, at the Kaseya Center in Miami.

The eight-round professional heavyweight contest will be streamed live worldwide on Netflix, beginning at 8 p.m. ET (5 p.m. PT).

Betting odds heavily favour Joshua, who is given an 88.9 per cent chance of victory, while Paul is rated at around 10 per cent, with a draw priced at 2.8 per cent, according to Oddschecker.
