Jake Paul camp suing over ‘fixed’ fight claims despite broken jaw

by

Nakisa Bidarian, Jake Paul’s manager, says they are taking legal action against individuals who have accused Jake of fixing his fight with Anthony Joshua, even though Jake was significantly injured in the match.

Lately, Jake Paul’s been stepping up his boxing game. He’s moved away from fighting people from other sports like UFC and is now taking on actual, established boxers. I mean, he’s gone toe-to-toe with guys like Mike Tyson, Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., and even Anthony Joshua – it’s a whole different level now!

Anthony Joshua defeated Jake Paul by knockout in the sixth round, marking Jake’s first professional boxing loss since his defeat to Tommy Fury. The fight resulted in a broken jaw for Jake Paul.

However, many people have accused the British heavyweight boxer of being involved in a pre-arranged outcome, claiming the fight was fixed. Because of these accusations, Jake’s team has begun legal action against those making them.

Double broken jaw. Give me Canelo in 10 days.

Jake Paul manager addresses ‘fixed’ fight claims

Jake’s manager, Nakisa Bidarian, told Ariel Helwani that they are taking legal action against several people who made statements about him on social media.

I don’t believe this will stop the false claims,” he stated. “Our legal team is currently pursuing several individuals responsible, including one who presents himself as a lawyer online. I can’t recall the name or username, but their content had around 200,000 likes.

So, I was reading this post, and apparently there was a deal in place for AJ not to knock Jake Paul out – a way to guarantee him a paycheck. But AJ just ignored it and decided to go for the knockout anyway, even if it meant losing out on the money! It’s honestly shocking to hear what people are saying about it all.

When asked if the false accusations against him will be dropped, Nakisa Bidarian stated they won’t be, and that his legal team is currently pursuing legal action against multiple individuals. #HelwaniShow

Bidarian highlighted accusations from other boxing promoters who said Joshua didn’t fight with his full effort, suggesting he ‘held back.’ There were also reports that Joshua was restricted from fully engaging with Jake Paul until a certain point in the fight.

According to the head of Most Valuable Promotions, there’s never been any question about Jake Paul’s fights not being legitimate – everything has always been presented as a genuine competition.
