Paul open to Joshua rematch

Jake Paul is open to a potential rematch with Anthony Joshua, according to his co-founder, Nakisa Bidarian. The December 2025 bout between the two heavyweights ended with Joshua knocking out Paul in the sixth round at the Kaseya Centre in Miami. Paul suffered a broken jaw, required surgery, and was suspended indefinitely from boxing.

He underwent a second operation months later, but Paul insists the injury did not impact him. Bidarian stated that Paul is now medically cleared and looking for a comeback opponent. He said Paul would also fight the winner of Joshua's upcoming match against Tyson Fury. Both Joshua and Fury will face off on December 11 at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff, for the WBA super heavyweight title, which will air live on Netflix.

Fury has a record of 36-2-1, while Joshua stands at 30-4. Bidarian also mentioned that Paul and Joshua discussed the psychological effects of such an injury on a fighter's mindset, but Paul did not share that sentiment. He emphasized his confidence and readiness to return to the ring, stating, "I'm a bigger dog than I've ever been and I want to come back and kill."
