YouTube personality turned professional boxer Jake Paul has announced he is dropping a previous retirement pledge and will return to the ring for a comeback fight, according to reports Wednesday.

The 27-year-old Paul, who has built a 10-1 professional boxing record since 2020, had previously indicated he might step away from the sport. Details regarding a potential opponent, date, or venue for the comeback bout were not immediately disclosed.

Paul's most recent fight was a unanimous decision victory over Mike Perry in July 2024. His only professional loss came against Tommy Fury in February 2023.
