Jake Paul taken to hospital after suffering ‘double broken jaw’ in Anthony Joshua fight

by

Joshua, meanwhile, expressed mixed feelings about the stoppage, wishing he had finished the fight sooner but crediting Paul’s toughness. He acknowledged the YouTuber-turned-boxer’s courage for stepping into the ring and continuing to rise after knockdowns.

Promoter Eddie Hearn echoed that respect, noting that while the fight unfolded as expected, Paul earned credit for his determination. However, Hearn also cautioned that jaw injuries can be particularly difficult for boxers to recover from.

As for what comes next, Joshua believes Paul has the mindset to continue if he chooses, though he stopped short of labeling him elite. For now, the night belongs to Joshua — a reminder of the gap between social-media stardom and true heavyweight power — and a harsh lesson for Paul, who leaves Miami battered, humbled, but still talking about what’s next.
