Jake Paul agrees Mike Perry rematch but it won\u2019t be boxing Instagram\/JakePaul\/OverdogspodJake Paul has revealed that he and Mike Perry have agreed to a rematch, but it won\u2019t happen inside the boxing ring. When Jake Paul announced that he\u2019d be returning to the boxing ring to fight \u2018Iron\u2019 Mike Tyson, plenty of boxing fans and boxers were skeptical. The massive age difference between them was the biggest sticking point, never mind Tyson\u2019s history in the ring. However, that fight was put on ice when the 58-year-old suffered an ulcer flare-up. Former UFC fighter and bare-knuckle expert \u2018Platinum\u2019 Mike Perry was drafted in as Tyson\u2019s replacement but suffered at the hands of Jake. The YouTuber-turned-boxer not only scored a technical knockout win over the former UFC star, but he managed to knock him down three times too. Jake was ultimately good value for the win and quickly dispelled any claims it maybe have been \u201crigged.\u201d Well, now the social media superstar has revealed that he and \u2018Platinum\u2019 Mike have agreed to a rematch. \u201cChopped it up with Mike Perry last night. What a stand-up dude. More confidence than most of these fighters. We agreed to run it in PFL when the time is right,\u201d Jake tweeted on July 25. The YouTuber-turned-boxer was also quizzed on the possibility of stepping out of the boxing ring and joining the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship ranks. \u201cIf I\u2019m stepping out of boxing, it\u2019s going to be PFL. After that we can do Dirty Boxing,\u201d he added. Jake penned a multi-year deal with the Professional Fighters League back in mid-2023, but has been \u201cdelayed\u201d in making his debut due to his boxing commitments. PFL CEO Peter Murray is on board with Jake making offers to fighters for his debut and they\u2019re still targeting an appearance before long. The YouTuber-turned-boxer is fighting Mike Tyson in mid-November, so maybe his focus will switch after that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
