As the organizer of his events, Jake Paul stars in his shows, but surrounds himself with fights from professional boxers.

This is what he did in his greatest 'success' so far against Mike Tyson, an almost 60-year-old opponent whom he defeated without any problem, as was to be expected.

Terrible criticism of Jake Paul vs Julio Cesar Chavez Jr fight

On June 28, Paul will face Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., an opponent considered to be the first real boxer he will face at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California.

On that evening, Gilberto 'Zurdo' Ramirez will defend his WBO Cruiserweight World Championship against Yuniel Dorticos, the only fight highlighted by boxing247.com.

They have put together a stellar show of crazies with a Disney kid turned fake boxer and a jaded fighter whose country disowned him and whose father still has to look after him in public.

"The only reason to even acknowledge this event is because it's Gilberto Ramirez vs Yuniel Dorticos. That's the real fight: two world-renowned cruiserweights competing for something that really matters. The rest? A sideshow of clowns, overhyped publicity and empty narratives," writes Amy A. Kaplan.
