Jake Paul's nonprofit, Boxing Bullies, has raised over $400,000 since its founding in 2021, but the YouTuber-turned-boxer says it has gone under the radar.
It seems like there is no in-between with Jake Paul – you either love him or hate him. Paul grew up in Cleveland and hit the big time with the since-defunct app, Vine, which he parlayed into a YouTube and Disney career. But throughout his career, he's been subject to controversy, and many believe his boxing career is a gimmicky publicity stunt.
He's certainly a character and knows how to make a story, but he also knows how to help out his community. He became a professional boxer in 2020, and a year later, he founded Boxing Bullies. Its mission is 'to instill self-confidence, leadership, and courage within the youth through the sport of boxing while using our platform, voice, and social media to fight back against bullying.
Even if you’re a consumer, and you’re scrolling on the internet. Naturally, ... that’s not what the human brain gravitates toward, I guess.' Paul is set to fight Mike Tyson at AT&T Stadium on Nov. 15; it was originally slated for July 20, but Tyson suffered an ulcer flare-up on a flight, forcing the fight to be postponed.
