Jake Paul recently underwent a second surgery on his jaw that was broken after a KO defeat on December 19, 2025 against Anthony Joshua.
"I have to have another jaw surgery. The screws and bolts are starting to loosen because apparently I haven't rested for the last two months, astaga!" wrote Paul on Instagram on Friday, February 20, 2026.
Paul (12-2) was brutally knocked out in the sixth round by Joshua, a two-time former heavyweight champion, and said his jaw was broken during an interview after the fight.
Paul's jaw was fractured in two places and he had his first surgery on December 20, 2026, when two titanium plates were inserted on each side and his teeth were extracted.
Although Paul insists he will not be out for long, this second procedure will almost certainly see him miss boxing for the foreseeable future.
Despite suffering an injury, Paul is still active on social media. Recently celebrated his fiancee, Jutta Leerdam, for her achievement of breaking the record by winning the gold medal in the women's 1,000-meter short track speed skating competition at the 2026 Winter Olympics.
