"Jake Paul recently underwent a second surgical procedure on the broken jaw he suffered in his Dec. 19 knockout loss to Anthony Joshua. "Had to get another jaw surgery," Paul wrote on Instagram on Friday. "The screws and plates were coming loose because apparently I didn't rest for the past 2 months whaattttttttt." Paul (12-2) was brutally knocked out in the sixth round by Joshua, the former two-time unified heavyweight champion, and stated that his jaw was broken during the postfight interview."
"Paul (12-2) was brutally knocked out in the sixth round by Joshua, the former two-time unified heavyweight champion, and stated that his jaw was broken during the postfight interview. Paul's jaw was fractured in two places, and he had his first surgery Dec. 20, when two titanium plates were inserted on each side and teeth were removed. Although Paul has insisted that he wouldn't be out of action long, the second procedure will almost certainly keep him away from boxing for the immediate future."
Jake Paul underwent a second surgical procedure to repair a broken jaw sustained in his Dec. 19 knockout loss to Anthony Joshua. Paul reported on Instagram that screws and plates were coming loose because he had not rested for two months. The knockout occurred in the sixth round, and Paul confirmed the jaw break during the postfight interview. The jaw was fractured in two places; his first surgery on Dec. 20 inserted two titanium plates on each side and included tooth removals. The second procedure will likely keep Paul out of boxing for the immediate future. Paul remained active on social media and celebrated fiancée Jutta Leerdam's Olympic gold.
