As Jake Paul suffered his first boxing upset, fans and WWE superstars Logan Paul and Ricochet shared their reactions on social media. At Diriyah Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on February 26, Jake Paul and Tommy Fury finally entered the ring. Fury won the split decision over Paul, ending The Problem Child’s streak of pro boxing victories without defeat.
Paul repeatedly sought the clinch while Fury established his jab early on. The boxer-turned-youtuber appeared to gain momentum in rounds 2 and 3, but only for a brief period of time. With the exception of a knockdown in the final round, Paul had little to offer, and the scorecards were likely to split.

After a hard-fought fight at the Diriyah Arena in Saudi Arabia, the 26-year-old boxer lost for the first time in his career to a British professional boxer. Also memorable was Paul’s first encounter with a professional boxer since boxing began in 2018.
Tommy Fury defeated Jake Paul in a split decision after two years of rivalry. The Problem Child graciously accepted defeat, praising Fury’s efforts and expressing gratitude to fans for their support.
Paul and Fury had previously made two attempts to fight, but Fury’s injuries and visa issues prevented them.
The two wrestlers finally entered the ring for a showdown on their third attempt. Paul’s record, which now stands at six wins and one loss, was marred by the defeat.
