Jake Paul may be best known as a Youtube superstar and e-celebrity, but this isn’t his first time in the ring. Paul, 23, will be stepping into the boxing arena for the third time, although this will be only his second professional bout — his first being a TKO victory over fellow YouTuber Ali Loui Al-Fakhri (known as “AnEsonGib”) earlier in January. This will be the first boxing match for Paul’s opponent, 36-year-old basketball player Nate Robinson.
That’s not Robinson’s only disadvantage, however; the former NBA star, who stands at five feet and nine inches tall, has a clear height and reach disadvantage against the six-foot-one Paul. Nevertheless, Robinson’s height did not slow him down on the court, nor did it prevent him from becoming the NBA’s first three-time slam dunk champion, so it seems unlikely that he is going to let this hold him back in the boxing ring.
