Jake Paul made himself richer than he once expected after he moved from the world of YouTube to professional boxing.
The YouTuber will compete against Julio Cesar Chavez JR on 28 June on 28 June in its toughest test so far.
The planned fight by Jake Paul with Canelo Alvarez fell apart, but his opponent was replaced by Chavez JR in the main event of a blockbuster card in California.
This could be one of Paul's largest payment indays so far, which contributes to the incredible amount of money he has earned so far in his career.

Jake Paul has earned more than $ 60 million since he started his boxing career
Paul has earned an astronomical amount of money since the start of his career in professional boxing.
The former Disney Channel actor made his boxing debut in 2020. Paul defeated colleague Youtuber Anesongib in a fast and easy knockout victory, which earned him a reported payment day of $ 1 million.
His wage for the next few fights varied, as low as $ 600,000 for his victory over Nate Robinson and more than $ 3 million for his defeat against Tommy Fury in 2023.

Paul's Payers remained around $ 2 million to $ 3 million until his Blockbuster fight with Mike Tyson his records for their fight in November 2024.
Despite claims that Paul was paid up to $ 90 million for the competition, he claimed in the months before the fight that he earned a more modest $ 40 million for beating the former world's heavyweight world champion.
“I am here to earn $ 40 million and a legend to knock-out,” Paul said a press conference in the construction of the fight.
Looking at the reported figures, Paul has earned an estimated $ 61.4 million from only his boxing career. This will increase with the Chavez JR fight, although it misses the distribution of the pay-per-view income that he has earned.
That will add even more millions to his bag, making Paul one of the most successful boxers in recent years.
Jake Paul will probably not make anymore about his next game than the Mike Tyson fight
Although Paul's upcoming competition with Chavez JR is an enormous interest, it is unlikely that he will earn so much money from the fight as his last.
The competition with Tyson in November 2024 Paul earned a reported $ 40 million. The interest in that match, however, was incredible, which was helped by the live broadcast on Netflix instead of Pay-per-View.
Paul earned a huge compensation, although that made up for a lack of PPV income share.
The competition with Chavez JR is broadcast on Dazn, which means that he will only earn a huge compensation if the fight sells many pay-per-views.
Although his wallet will be fighting in the millions, it should be a hugely popular fight to reach the $ 40 million to take his total fight income up to more than $ 100 million before his career.
