Right now, the smart money is on nothing happening in 2026. Joshua is still a top contender. He’s not desperate enough to fight a YouTube star — yet.
Jake Paul vs Anthony Joshua - Date, Start time, Fight Card, Location
But never say never. Boxing is a circus, and Jake Paul is the ringmaster. He’ll keep dangling the carrot. He’ll keep dropping hints.
The date you should actually circle? Maybe late 2026 or 2027. If Joshua loses a few more big fights, his stock drops, and suddenly the Paul fight looks like a retirement plan. A very, very rich retirement plan.
How to Stay Sane
Until official announcements come from Joshua’s team or Most Valuable Promotions (that’s Jake’s crew), take every random poster with a mountain of salt.
Don’t book your flights to London. Don’t buy a pay-per-view package. Just sit back, pop some popcorn, and enjoy the drama.
Because honestly? The build-up is often more entertaining than the fight itself. And this build-up is pure, unfiltered chaos. And we love it.
So when is Jake Paul vs. Anthony Joshua? The honest answer: when pigs fly, or when a billionaire writes a really oversized check. Whichever comes first.
For now, just chuckle at the madness. Pour yourself another coffee. And wait for the next ridiculous rumor to drop. It’s only a matter of time.
