Jake Paul has his first win against a person that could primarily be called a boxer.
The YouTube star scored a first-round knockout against little-known Houston boxer Andre August on Friday, improving his career record to 8-1. It was the 26-year-old's first finish since his sixth-round KO of Tyron Woodley in December 2021, four fights ago.
Paul scored the win with an impressive uppercut.
