Jake Paul has second jaw surgery two months after bout
Dec 19, 2025; Miami, Florida, UNITED STATES; Jake Paul looks on after losing against Anthony Joshua during a heavyweight boxing bout at Kaseya Center. Mandatory Credit: Sam Navarro-Imagn Images Jake Paul announced Friday over social media that he has undergone a second surgery on his jaw.
The news comes about two months after the social media influencer-turned-boxer's sixth-round knockout loss to former two-time unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua.
Paul, 29, underwent surgery the day after the fight in Miami on Dec. 19.
"Had to get another jaw surgery," Paul wrote Friday on Instagram. "The screws and plates were coming loose because apparently I didn't rest for the past 2 months whaattttttttt."
In addition to photos and videos of himself in the hospital, Paul tried to have a little fun at his own expense with a few edited clips to depict a mechanical jaw. In one clip, he pretended to remove one side of his jaw.
Although he may not feel like it, Paul (12-2, 7 KOs) has reason to smile.
His fiancee Jutta Leerdam captured gold at the 2026 Milan Cortina Games by shattering an Olympic record in the women's 1000m speed skating event.
