Jake Paul announced Thursday that he has signed an MMA contract with PFL in a multifight, multiyear deal.
Paul, 25, holds a professional boxing record of 6-0 with four knockouts. His highest-profile fights have come against MMA fighters, including former UFC champions Tyron Woodley and Anderson Silva. Paul has teased a transition to MMA in the past but is expected to continue his professional boxing career as well.
“I’ve proven myself in and out of the boxing ring and now I am going to do the same in MMA,” Paul said in a statement. “There is no limit to the positive impact I can make on the sport. I plan to enter the PFL SmartCage and once again show the world that anything is possible with hard work and dedication.”
