JAKARTA - Jake Paul decided that his fight against Tyron Woodley last Sunday was the last. The YouTuber retired from boxing after only four fights.
Jake had a perfect record from that fight and decided to hang up his gloves just 24 hours after his win over Woodley.
"Updated status: Retired boxer," Paul tweeted.

Jake hinted after the fight that he was considering quitting the sport, without even having the chance to fight Conor McGregor, which he desperately wanted to do.
"Honestly I don't know, we'll see," he said, quoted from MARCA, Wednesday, September 1.
"I've been preparing for this fight for 18 months and I haven't rested yet. I need to rest.
"I've had ups and downs. I want to be in good shape, maybe rest and spend time with my brother and now support him like I did when he fought Floyd Mayweather.
"I wasn't at my best tonight. My legs were a little wobbly. I haven't felt like that since my first fight."
Paul won by split decision after the longest fight in his short career.
The question is, is Jake really retiring or is he just creating a sensation like McGregor to keep the public talking about him while he rests for a while?
Honestly, isn't it hard to leave the world of sports that make millions of dollars? Yes, evidently, Jake made a new tweet a few hours ago: "I'm back from retirement."
