Jake Paul vs. Andre August: Fight card, odds, date, start time, how to watch, location, rumors, complete guide

The social media superstar is back in a rare Friday night attraction this week against a professional opponent

🔴LIVE🔴📺🥊👉 Jake Paul vs. Andre August Live

Jake Paul is deviating from the script in his development as a boxer. Paul meets Andre August, the most experienced professional boxer that Paul has faced, on Friday night in Orlando, Florida.

Paul cut his teeth in pro boxing by defeating former UFC champions, MMA superstars, an ex-NBA player and a fellow social influencer. So it came as a surprise when he ditched a working formula to fight August, a boxer boasting 12 professional fights and no name value. On paper, August is the most competent boxer that Paul has faced since losing a split decision to Tommy Fury in February.

"He can't move like me, he's not as sharp as me. I'm skillful and will be picking him apart," Paul said at the final press conference. "I doubt he is even going to land a punch; sloppy feet and all that form. I'm going to dust him up real quick and find out who the better boxer is."

It's an interesting Friday night attraction with a few other fights worth noting. The WBC women's super middleweight title is on the line in the co-main event when Shadasia Green and Franchon Crews-Dezurn battle it out for the vacant strap. Yoenis Tellezis set to take on Livan Navarro in a super middleweight contest. And welterweight prospects are set to battle when Elijah Flores takes on Javier Mayoral. 

The winner of Green and Crews-Dezurn is expected to challenge Savannah Marshall to become undisputed in the division. 

"I just want to send a statement that I'm seizing the moment and when I say that I'm on my way to become the undisputed super-middleweight world champion, that's what I plan to do," Green said in an interview with Sky Sports this week.

"Definitely [I'm] a dangerous threat and I look forward to putting that on the line against some of the top tier champions in my weight class."
