Jake Paul has decided to take a break from the ring following the jaw injury he sustained during his recent defeat to Anthony Joshua. However, the boxer has conveyed his desire to stay engaged, as he mentioned that he is feeling a significant urge for parenthood.
During a Tuesday interview on his brother Logan Paul’s Impaulsive podcast after undergoing jaw surgery, Paul was questioned about his future plans in light of the loss to Joshua on Friday in Miami. He revealed that he would take some time off to support his fiancée Jutta Leerdam at the 2026 Olympics.
“I’m gonna take some time off to go support [his fiancée] Jutta [Leerdam] at the Olympics. Then she’s gonna move to Puerto Rico. Move her here. Maybe go snowboarding or something,” Paul stated before revealing the emotion that has recently engulfed him.
“I have such baby fever. Like I want kids so bad,” the 28-year-old YouTuber-turned-boxer added.
