Jake Paul will be taking on his third fight of 2023 this Friday night in Florida.
Coming off the back of fights with Tommy Fury and Nate Diaz, Paul's latest bout may not have the headline grabbing opponent but it will be the former YouTuber turned boxer's third major fight this year. Andre August may not be a huge name in the world of boxing but the cruiserweight is a professional who had some minor success in 2019 and he will represent a forward step for Paul who has often fought former MMA stars and fellow YouTubers.
Despite losing his previous fight against a pro-boxer to Tommy Fury in February of this year, he will be eager to put a stop to August and cement his credentials as an up and comer in the boxing world. The 26 year-old announced the clash with August on social media where he said: "Ask and I shall deliver. August has more KO’s then me, more wins then me, more experience then me, but I like to gamble. The path to world champ starts here. Just straight up boxing."

He added: "So far, my entire boxing career has been on PPV, but now it’s about more than business. Now I want to build my experience in the ring." August is coming into the fight on the back of a five-fight winning streak and the Houston-based boxer has said he plans to send Paul "back to YouTube".
