Jake Paul drops out of WBA cruiserweight rankings after loss to Anthony Joshua
PANAMA CITY (AP) --- Jake Paul has slipped out of the WBA cruiserweight
rankings after the YouTuber-turned-boxer was soundly beaten by former world
heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua last month.
Paul's jaw was broken in two places and the American needed surgery to repair
the damage after Joshua's sixth-round knockout victory in a heavyweight bout in
Miami.
Paul (12-2, 7 KOs) had entered the WBA's cruiserweight rankings at No. 14 in
July shortly after he beat 39-year-old Julio Csar Chvez Jr. by unanimous
decision in Anaheim, California.
He was at No. 15 entering the bout against Joshua.
