Details On Jake Paul MMA Debut With PFL In 2023 Or 2024

Jake Paul, a YouTuber turned boxer, has signed with MMA promotion company, PFL. The contract details reveal that he will make his MMA debut in the new ‘super-fight’ division, which is separate from the league format and is broadcasted exclusively through pay-per-view. The 26-year-old Paul is currently serving as the head of fighter advocacy for the promotion.

The launch of PFL’s European league is being overseen by the Senior Vice-president James Frewin, who confirmed that it’s in Paul’s contract to fight in the PFL Smart Cage, although the exact time and place have yet to be confirmed. The international expansion plan is a big part of PFL’s strategy and it’s possible that Paul may fight in the UK or somewhere outside the US.

Paul has a wrestling background from high school and has recently started jiu-jitsu training under black belt Mike Perez in preparation for his MMA debut. The PFL is aiming to become MMA’s second-largest promotion, behind the UFC, and its global expansion plan attracted Paul to join the league.

According to Frewin, Paul was attracted to the PFL because of its commitment to being a professional and treating fighters well, including offering competitive pay. The launch of the pay-per-view super fight division is seen as a perfect opportunity for Paul to not only voice support for the PFL, but also to increase the popularity of MMA.
