How much does Jake Paul pay his opponents?

[Tripnsweep]

I'm watching him "fight" Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. I've never seen a "fight" of his where anyone throws a lot of punches at him. It's just surreal that anyone believes this is legitimate boxing. This is just the ultimate rich guy paying to win against washed up fighters. When he did "fight" somebody who went off script or whatever, he lost. This is just sad to watch.

He pays them as employees. From what I understand, the pay is generous.

Why not. It's not like any of them have been real matches. As close to being scripted without actually being scripted as is possible (with one match going a bit off script.)

It's not 'real' boxing in any way, shape, or form. It's more like 'play' boxing for millennials who know nothing about boxing but will pay to watch exhibition matches.

This sort of thing won't save real boxing, but it will make money. If a bit of that money were to go toward real boxing...
