WBA REMOVES JAKE PAUL FROM WORLD RANKINGS FOLLOWING ANTHONY JOSHUA KNOCKOUT LOSS
Jake Paul has been stripped of his WBA ranking after a KO loss to Anthony Joshua. Get the latest on his injury and AJ’s recovery.
_1767366986.webp)
Jake Paul is out of the WBA cruiserweight rankings after losing to Anthony Joshua. That fight went down on December 19 in Miami. Paul stepped up to heavyweight for it, but Joshua—a former two-time champ—dropped him a few times before finishing things in the sixth round.
Even though the loss happened at heavyweight, Paul’s standing at cruiserweight took a hit. When the WBA updated their rankings at the end of December, Paul was no longer on the list. He’d been sitting at No. 14, but now it’s just the usual 15 names, and he’s not one of them.
Paul, 28, first cracked the WBA rankings after beating Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. back in June. Chavez Jr., if you don’t know, is a former middleweight champ and the son of the legendary Chavez Sr. That win by decision helped Paul’s case, but losing to Joshua knocked him out of the conversation. His pro record now sits at 12-2, and on top of the loss, he broke his jaw in two places. That’s a rough way to end a fight—especially after his last heavyweight appearance 13 months back, when he beat Mike Tyson on points.
At cruiserweight, Paul’s picked up wins against former UFC guys like Anderson Silva, Tyron Woodley, and Mike Perry. His first pro loss came in that division too, when Tommy Fury—Tyson Fury’s half-brother—outpointed him in 2023.
So, what’s next for Jake? Nobody really knows yet. He’s been calling out Canelo Alvarez for ages, hoping to score a fight with the Mexican superstar. Canelo, 35, is a former champ in four different weight classes and has twice held all the super-middleweight belts at once. But in his last fight, he lost those titles to Terence Crawford. Crawford, who’s 38, actually retired in December after beating Canelo on points.
While Paul figures out his next move, Joshua is recovering from a car crash in Nigeria that killed two of his friends. He was just a passenger in an SUV when their convoy hit a parked truck along the Lagos-Ibadan expressway. Sina Ghami and Latif “Latz” Ayodele—both close with Joshua—died in the accident on Monday. Joshua himself got away with only minor injuries.
THE SECRET GESTURE JAKE PAUL MADE FOR ANTHONY JOSHUA FOLLOWING THE TRAGIC CRASH
Tragedy strikes Team Joshua. Discover how Jake Paul’s MVP promotion is honouring Latif Ayodele and Sina Ghami in San Juan tonight.
Jake Paul’s promotion just did something pretty moving after some heartbreaking news.
Last month, Paul lost to Anthony Joshua in their big fight on Netflix at the Kaseya Center in Miami. Heading into that match, a lot of people worried about Paul’s health—and honestly, those concerns turned out to be real. He took some hard hits and suffered serious injuries in the knockout.
But then everything stopped after December 19. Word came that Anthony Joshua had been in a bad car crash while traveling in Nigeria. Suddenly, any talk about what’s next in boxing didn’t matter. The accident changed everything.
Joshua, who used to hold the heavyweight title twice, managed to get out of the hospital and recover at home, but the crash left a much bigger mark. Two of Joshua’s close friends—Latif Ayodele and Sina Ghami, both trainers and strength coaches—were killed when their Lexus crashed into a parked truck. Joshua’s driver now faces four charges as the investigation goes on.
After hearing what happened, Jake Paul reached out with a message of support for Joshua and everyone affected. And then his promotion, Most Valuable Promotions (MVP), decided to honor Ayodele and Ghami at their event in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Before the fights, MVP shared that both men’s names would be shown on either side of their logo in the center of the ring that Saturday night.
Their post said, “Tonight we honor two extraordinary young men who have impacted many lives and helped create one of the greatest boxers of all time. This is for Team Anthony Joshua. With respect, Sina Ghami and Latif Ayodele. Thank you for helping MVP put on a massive event. You will be remembered, always.”
Looking ahead, MVP’s next show is on January 3, 2026, at the Coliseo Robert Clemente. Amanda Serrano will defend her unified WBO and WBA featherweight titles against Reina Tellez. In the co-main event, former UFC champ Holly Holm steps back into the boxing ring, hoping to grab the WBA lightweight belt from Stephanie Han. And further down the card, Ebanie Bridges faces Alexis Mones at 118 pounds.
PROVEN POWER: WHY BRIAN NORMAN JR’S LEFT HOOK IS OFFICIALLY THE KO OF THE YEAR
Relive the most jaw-dropping boxing KOs of 2025. From Wardley’s miracle right to Norman Jr’s viral hook, see the year's best hits.
Boxing fans really got their money's worth in 2025. Knockouts came thick and fast, starting with Jai Opetaia flattening David Nyika on January 8. After that, the fireworks just kept coming.
We’ve whittled down the best stoppages of the past year to a top five—though honestly, it was tough not to make it a top 20 (plenty more in the honourable mentions).
So, as the year wraps up, let’s jump right into the most jaw-dropping knockouts from the last 12 months.
5. Fabio Wardley vs. Justis Huni—June 7, 2025
Some knockouts on this list are more savage, but few can match the drama of Fabio Wardley’s one-punch finish over Justis Huni. Wardley was getting picked apart, losing every round, and then—out of nowhere—he found a right hand in the tenth that flipped the whole fight upside down. Later, videos surfaced of Wardley drilling that exact shot with his trainer, Ben Davison, backstage. When the lights were brightest, it worked.
4. Jai Opetaia KO8 Huseyin Cinkara - December 6, 2025
Opetaia’s 2025 was a grind—beating every challenger in front of him while chasing the big unification fights that never quite happened. Huseyin Cinkara, his third opponent of the year, actually hurt Opetaia early, but Opetaia paid him back with a perfect backhand that sent Cinkara crashing into the ropes. The aftermath was scary: Cinkara suffered a brain bleed and a fractured vertebra, but thankfully, he recovered.
3. Pedro da Silva Conceição KO2 Renny Viamonte - August 22, 2025
This one flew under the radar at first. Pedro Da Silva Conceicao vs. Renny Viamonte wasn’t exactly a headline-grabber when it showed up on Jake Paul’s MVP card in Orlando. But the knockout? Wild. Conceicao landed a monster right hand in round two, and Viamonte face-planted, completely out. Jake Paul, sitting ringside, looked stunned. Medics rushed in, and Viamonte stayed down for a few tense minutes.
2. Ramazan Muslimov KO7 Michal Soczynski—November 11, 2025
British fans know Michal Soczynski as the guy who beat Aloys Junior in his debut, and he’s scored a bunch of brutal knockouts since then. But this time, he was the one on the receiving end. Ramazan Muslimov caught him with a sharp one-two, and Soczynski’s head bounced off the canvas on the way down. He ended up in a medically induced coma, but he pulled through, and he’s since welcomed a baby boy.
1. Brian Norman Jr. KO5 Jin Sasaki - June 19, 2025
Brian Norman Jr. might have lost his WBO welterweight belt to Devin Haney to close the year, but earlier, his knockout of Jin Sasaki set social media on fire. Fighting in Japan, Norman Jr. let loose a savage left hook that dropped Sasaki for good. That one had everyone talking.
