Boxer, a former YouTuber whose jaw was shattered after being beaten by an Olympic gold medalist, is determined to stand on the ring again. Jake Paul (29), who made an astronomical return for just one game, hinted at another return after winning an astronomical return.

The Sun, a British media outlet, highlighted on the 17th (Korea Standard Time), saying, "Paul posted a post hinting at his return to the ring despite undergoing his second surgery for a broken jaw suffered by Joshua."

Paul, who is famous as a YouTuber boxer, was seriously injured after being hit with a straight right hand in the sixth round of a heavyweight match against Anthony Joshua of England in Miami in December last year, breaking two jawbones.

At the time, Paul made astronomical profits even though he lost to KO. According to the U.K.'s Daily Mail, Paul reportedly received $92 million (about 136 billion won) in fight money for just one game. It was even found that the total amount of the two players' competition fees amounted to a whopping 140 million pounds (about 277.8 billion won).

The extent of the injury was beyond imagination. Paul endured two major surgeries to insert two titanium plates and remove some teeth to fix his broken jaw. Last week alone, Paul said, "It will take at least six months to start sparring again," suggesting that the hiatus will continue for the time being.

But Paul is also moving to make record profits. On the 16th, Paul released a video of him training with his coach on his personal social networking service (SNS) and inserted the caption, "Announcement on March 18." In addition, Paul said, "You don't expect this," adding, "There will be a major announcement in two days."

Fans are already making a fuss. Some are even talking about the possibility of a rematch with Ryan Garcia, Conor McGregor, or Tommy Fury.

First of all, Paul made clear that the next game won't be heavyweight. "Joshua's punch hurt a lot more than my weight class players," Paul said. "The next game will definitely be cruiserweight. That's my best weight class," he said.
