We take a look at the record of Hasim Rahman Jr. after he stepped in as a replacement for Tommy Fury against Jake Paul

Amongst the many criticisms that Youtuber turned boxer Jake Paul faces was allegations that he cherry-picks opponents to build up his career. Tommy Fury has the pedigree of boxing in his family history, and the sport runs in his veins. This prompted fans that he will probably be Paul’s biggest test so far. But despite many attempts by the Paul and Fury camp to bring this fight together, the fight has gone back to rack and ruin, leaving the American opponent less. Little did combat fans know that when Jake Paul said ‘Anyone, Any place, Any time’, he actually meant it.

Pullulating ringster Jake Paul will face his toughest test to date when he collides with ‘tough as knuckles’ Hasim Rahman Jr. atop the Showtime boxing pay-per-view (PPV) card scheduled for Sat., Aug. 6, 2022 inside Madison Square Garden in New York City.

“I’ve wanted this fight ever since Hasim ran his big mouth to me two years ago in the gym,” Paul wrote on Twitter. “My brother and manager didn’t want me to take this fight. They said it was too much risk. The New York State Athletic Commission didn’t want to approve this fight because they said Hasim has too much experience for me. He has over 100 amateur fights, ten times more than Tommy… but I’m built different. I’m psychotic. CHAOTIC. PROBLEMATIC.”

Announcing his fight on Twitter, Paul wrote,

✅ Bigger
✅ Stronger
✅ More experienced
✅ KO power

But it doesn’t matter. They don’t have my heart, don’t have my drive & definitely don’t have my team.

What is Hasim Rahman Jr’s boxing record?

After competing in over 100 amateur fights, Rahman would eventually make his pro debut in 2017. He won his initial three bouts via TKO. In 2021 Rahman fought three times, with two fights ending via some form of knockout. His last fight was a TKO loss at the hands of James McKenzie Morrison back in April. That bout was for the WBC USNBC heavyweight title. 

Paul and Rahman used to be sparring partners once. But, Rahman was upset by Paul’s antics, and a video was recently released showing that exchange. 

Hasim Rahman Jr. is 12-1 as a pro boxer.
