Joshua picks opponents for Jake Paul after brutal knockout

British heavyweight Anthony Joshua Who could be the next opponent of the American blogger jake paulIf he decides to continue his career.

“Jake’s got spirit. He’s got guts. He did everything he could, and my hat’s off to him because, first of all, not a lot of fighters would get in the ring with me, but Jake did. Secondly, even after he got knocked down, he kept trying to get back up. I trust him.”

So America, I believe you have a guy who could potentially come back again and his heart is still in it. He should dust himself off, come back, and maybe sell this arena in 2026. Maybe against Gervonta Davis or Ryan Garcia,” Anthony said.

The video of the fight in which Anthony Joshua knocked out Jake Paul is available on our website.
