Mini bio
How it started.
Jake grew up making videos with his older brother Logan. In a Forbes interview, he recalled competing with Logan to make better Vine clips. Those short comedy videos helped him build an audience before YouTube became the home for his pranks and vlogs.
From videos to television.
He moved to Los Angeles, took acting and improv classes, and played Dirk in Disney Channel’s Bizaardvark. He also formed Team 10, a creator collective and management business, and released music with the group, including It’s Everyday Bro in 2017.
A different kind of stage.
Jake made his professional boxing debut in 2020 and co-founded Most Valuable Promotions with Nakisa Bidarian in 2021. His work now moves between competing, promoting events and making television, including the documentary Untold: Jake Paul the Problem Child and the reality series Paul American.
Where things stand.
After beating Mike Tyson in 2024 and Julio César Chávez Jr. in 2025, he lost to Anthony Joshua in December 2025. In 2026, MVP expanded into MMA and announced a merger with PFL. On November 2, MVP announced Jake’s planned December 24 boxing return against Cédric Doumbé in Dubai.
