Tonight it falls on former WBC middleweight champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr to teach Jake Paul – a man who recently declared himself the best thing to happen to boxing since Muhammad Ali – a much-needed lesson in humility. Below we have all the information on how to watch Jake Paul vs Julio Cesar Chavez Jr from anywhere.
Paul's antics were seen as mildly amusing when he took down an out-of-shape Ben Askren, an injury-hampered Tyron Woodley, an ill-prepared Nate Diaz and even a 47-year old Anderson Silva, but then he came for Mike Tyson. The bleak sight of the legendary heavyweight pulling all of his punches in service to Paul's ego was too much for many, but it's surely a matter of time before the professional provocateur picks the wrong target.
Is Chavez Jr that guy? The Mexican is the son of boxing royalty in former three-division world champion Julio Cesar Chavez Sr, but having last contested a serious belt 13 years ago, the 39-year-old's best days are clearly long gone. He also lost to Silva shortly before Paul beat the former UFC champ. Chavez Jr is, however, coming off consecutive victories over David Zegarra and Uriah Hall, and Chavez Sr has promised that, unlike Tyson, his son plans to fight back tonight.
One of boxing's top superstars, for better or worse, returns to the ring on Saturday when Jake Paul takes on former middleweight champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. in a cruiserweight fight. Paul is looking to continue building his credibility as a boxer by taking on Chavez, an experienced boxer, though well past his prime.
Chavez held the WBC middleweight title from June 2011 to September 2012. The son of the legendary Julio Cesar Chavez Sr., Chavez never lived up to his father's legacy and mixed drug test and weight issues with otherwise inconsistent in-ring results.
Paul has made a career of fighting faded athletes, primarily from the world of mixed martial arts, but he is also coming off of a win over 58-year-old Mike Tyson in a fight that did big business but produced little action.
Paul and Chavez share one common opponent, with Chavez losing a split decision to UFC legend Anderson Silva and Paul taking a clear unanimous decision win roughly one year later.
Jake Paul wants to win a world championship. Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. owned one more than a decade ago.
That may be the extent of what binds them when they head into the boxing ring for their 10-round cruiserweight fight Saturday in Anaheim, Calif.
Chavez Jr., 39, won the WBC world middleweight championship in 2011. He lost it for good the following year and has failed to live up to the immense expectations fueled by the success of his father, Hall of Famer Julio Cesar Chavez Sr.
Chavez (54-6-1, 34 KOs) does have the clear edge in experience over the 28-year-old Paul (11-1, 7 KOs). But he looked vulnerable in his last bout, a lackluster victory over Uriah Hall in 2024 after more than a 2 ½-year layoff.
By contrast, Paul has remained active since embarking on his pro career in 2020 and is coming off a victory over Mike Tyson by unanimous decision in 2024.
The action gets underway at 8 p.m. ET on DAZN pay-per-view. The full fight card with odds and complete viewing information is listed below.

Paul Vs. Chavez Jr. Fight Card, PPV Start Time
The undercard has a few intriguing fights, most notably the WBO and WBA Cruiserweight titles that are on the line for Gilberto Ramirez and Yuniel Dorticos. This is a big potential stepping-stone for Ramirez, as he hopes to use a big win here to get himself a big money fight against IBF and The Ring Cruiserweight champ, Jai Opetaia, unified Light Heavyweight champ Dmitry Bivol or the star of tonight’s show, fellow cruiserweight Jake Paul (assuming he wins).
Finally, former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) women’s Bantamweight champion (and former boxing title holder in the WBC, IBA and WBF), Holly Holm, makes her return to boxing after 12 years as she takes on undefeated (10-0) Yolanda Vega.
