Jake Paul plans to take break from boxing and whisk girlfriend Julia Rose away on holiday after Tyron Woodley fight
JAKE PAUL plans to whisk stunning girlfriend Julia Rose away on holiday after his rematch with Tyron Woodley.
Paul beat Woodley on points in August to go 4-0 as a boxer but the pair will share the ring again on December 18.
After which, Paul thinks he’s in need of a rest from boxing.
The YouTube star, 24, made his professional debut in January 2020, and has since become one of the most polarising figures in the sport.
In Paul’s first three fights, he beat YouTuber ‘AnEsonGib’, ex-NBA star Nate Robinson, 37, and retired UFC welterweight Ben Askren, also 37.
But his win over eight rounds against ex-UFC champion Woodley, 39, was his biggest to date.
Their rematch will mark Paul’s fourth fight in just over a year and leaves the workaholic American finally ready to take a rest with his other half.
He said on his brother Logan’s podcast: “I wanna go on vacation with Julia, travel the world.
“I haven’t done much, you know. I didn’t feel like I deserved a vacation and I haven’t really taken one.

“It’s only really been like a work vacation for like a week but like, you’re still filming content or like, doing stuff.
“I really want to take some time off, for sure. 100 per cent.”
Paul and Rose have enjoyed an on-off relationship over the last couple of years.
Rose is an American actress, reality TV star and the founder of ‘Shagmag’, an online publication that features photos of Instagram models.
The 27-year-old shot to fame when she and fellow models Lauren Summer and Kayla Lauren flashed Houston Astros pitcher Gerrit Cole at the 2019 World Series.
FURY FIGHT AXED
Paul was due to fight Tommy Fury, 22, the brother of heavyweight champion Tyson, 33, until his online rival pulled out.
Fury withdrew following a chest infection and broken rib but was swiftly replaced by Woodley, who was training on standby.
Paul confirmed: “It’s official: Tommy Fury is the biggest bitch in boxing.
“He has withdrawn from the fight. The Fury withdrew from the fight due to a ‘medical condition’.
“Who knows what the hell is going on in that camp – I couldn’t believe the news at first. It doesn’t even seem real.
“He lost the biggest opportunity of his life. Now he’ll be looking at home, paying me 60 dollars instead of getting paid millions of dollars to fight me.
“I have fought with a broken nose, sick, damn it, this is boxing. It’s official; He was scared, I think the trash talk affected him.
“The good news is that we spoke to Mr Tyron Woodley, and we said; ‘Hey, do you want to fight?’ He has been training.
“He answered us; ‘Sure, I’ll take the fight, let’s do the rematch.’ I’ll give you an extra 500,000 dollars if you can knock me out.
“Jake Paul vs Tyron Woodley 2: Leave no Doubt. I didn’t knock him out the first time.
“I’m going back and get a crazy win, with a crazy knockout for the highlights. The show must go on.”
