Jake Paul offered a glimpse into how he plans to spend his recovery time outside of the boxing ring.
The YouTuber-turned-boxer suffered a broken jaw in last week’s knockout loss to former heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua. The fight was broadcast live on the Netflix streaming service.
During his recovery, Paul will focus on supporting his fiancée, Olympic speed skater Jutta Leerdam, as she prepares for next year’s Winter Games. He also admitted that he is developing a serious case of “baby fever.”

“I’m going to take some time off to go support [his fiancée] jutta [Leerdam] at the Olympics,” Paul said earlier this week when asked about his near-term future plans during a sit-down on his older brother Logan Paul’s “Impaulsive” podcast.

“So she’s moving to Puerto Rico. They’re moving her here. Maybe she’ll go snowboarding or something,” he added. Paul said surgery to treat his injury required the insertion of four plates and eight screws into his jaw.

Paul then revealed that he hopes his family will soon welcome some new additions, saying, “I have such baby fever. Like I want to have kids so bad.”
The 28-year-old and the Dutch speed skater met after Paul reached out to Leerdam on social media and invited her to appear on his podcast in 2022. The couple announced their engagement in March.

“We are engaged and can’t wait to spend forever together,” Paul captioned a series of photos in a March 22 Instagram post.
Joshua knocked out Paul in the sixth round of last week’s fight in Miami.
