Jake Paul Career Earnings
Despite only having his first professional boxing fight in 2020, Jake Paul became the highest paid athlete under the age of 25 in 2021 thanks to his boxing career, according to Forbes.
Since beginning his boxing journey, ‘The Problem Child’ has earned astronomical sums of money inside the ring. Hats off to him, he knows how to make a penny or two.
The 1997-born boxing superstar has gone from strength to strength since turning professional. This is backed up by his career earnings, which have continued to grow at a rapid rate over the past few years.
It is reported that the Ohio man earned around $40 million in 2021. Forbes suggested that his three bouts in 2021, firstly against Ben Askren and then twice against Tyron Woodley, as well as outside of the ring revenue streams, earned him the $40 million total.
Actually inside the ring, Jake Paul’s total career earnings inside the boxing ring equates to roughly $87.5 million to date. This figure was massively inflated thanks to his last fight against Mike Tyson, where ‘The Problem Child’ pocketed an extortionate $40 million for the contest.

The American reportedly took home a purse of $8.6 million in the aftermath of the Tommy Fury fight, despite losing for the first time. This still remains the only loss on Jake Paul’s boxing record.
