Jake Paul - Mike Perry
(Esther Lin/MVP)

With a win against Mike Perry, Jake Paul punched his ticket to a rescheduled date with ex-heavyweight champion Mike Tyson in November.

Whether Paul won five rounds or all six didn’t matter in the end. Paul dominated the BKFC star in nearly every aspect of the sport, landing several power shots and right hands for which Perry had little to no answer.

Perry barely stunned Paul, let alone have him on the ropes minus a few small clinch opportunities. Nevertheless, it’s the same narrative as nearly every fight: whether people doubt Paul or not, his presence in boxing is far from a gimmick.

The Tampa crowd quickly transitioned from cheering for Perry to giving Paul his flowers, adding to his quest to become a legitimate boxer.

In the co-main event, Amanda Serrano did short work against Stevie Morgan, needing under six minutes to earn her highly-anticipated rematch with Katie Taylor. Morgan was hardly competitive, getting hit with several lefts and rights before the referee stopped the action. 

Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. won an underwhelming decision against Uriah Hall, out-boxing Hall 11 punches per round to just 10 for Hall, even though Hall edged Chavez Jr. 37-33 overall, per CompuBox.

Corey Marksman was dominant in his win against Tony Aguilar, winning a unanimous decision in their lightweight rematch and landing 115 punches in the win.

Lucas Bahdi railed down five rounds to knock out Ashton Sylve and pull off arguably the greatest comeback of 2024 in boxing.

Angel Barrientes outboxed Edwin Rodriguez, winning a six-round decision. Alexis Chaparro earned his second straight KO win and the second win of his professional career, dispatching Kevin Hill.

Closing out the preliminary portion, Shadisa Green won a decision against Natasha Spence, showing heart.
