JAKE PAUL GETS ANOTHER 1ST ROUND STOPPAGE & AMANDA SERRANO FIGHT IS CANCELLED WITH AN EYE INJURY
“The Problem Child” notches his first victory of 2024
By DAZN
San Juan, PR (March 3rd, 2024)– Jake Paul predicted a second-round knockout against Ryan Bourland. Well, he did even better than that. Paul overwhelmed Bourland toward a first-round TKO at Coliseo Jose Miguel Agrelot in Suan Juan, Puerto Rico, and live on DAZN, on Saturday night.
“I wanted it to be a little bit longer, give the fans more time,” Paul (9-1, 6 KOs) told DAZN after recording his ninth professional victory in his 10th pro fight and second straight first-round stoppage.
“I guess we have to step it up way more.”
Fighting against the third boxer he has faced, Paul made quick work of Bourland, immediately asserting the jab before adding a crunching right hook to the body.
Moments later, he used an overhand right to wobble Bourland before giving chase and unleashing more shots. With the overmatched, reeling Bourland in major trouble, Paul trapped him in the corner where he unloaded on a barrage of punches, prompting the referee to step in and stop the bout at the 2:37 mark.

“I mean, he was supposed to give it to me, right? This guy has 19 fights, he’s super-experienced. I guess we’ve got to step it up way more,” said Paul after the fight to DAZN.
