Jake Paul Vs. Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. Results And Full Card Results

Jake Paul handed Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. a loss on Saturday night at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California. Paul looked strong the first five rounds but began to fade late.

Chavez had his moments late, but he got started far too late and wound losing a lopsided decision (98-92, 97-93 and 99-91).

A raucous pro-Chavez crowd pelted Paul with boos before and after the fight, btu the defiant content creator turned prizefighter stood his ground and called out the likes of Gilberto Ramirez (who won in the co-main event), Anthony Joshua, Canelo Alvarez, Gervonta Davis and others in his post-fight interview.

I covered the entire event. Take a look at the round-by-round breakdown for the entire card below along with official results.

Paul def. Chavez Jr. via unanimous decision 98-92, 97-93, 99-91

Tenth Round – Chavez Jr. 10-9 (Paul 98-92)

Chavez Jr. just proved that he could have won this fight if he’d pushed the way he did in the last two rounds. Chavez had Paul on the ropes the last two rounds and it looked as if he might have gotten a stoppage if this was a 12-round fight. Interesting.

Ninth Round – Chavez Jr. 10-9 (Paul 89-82)

Something just happened. Chavez Jr. just won that round and seemed to hurt Paul late in the round. Paul is tired. The 10th could be interesting.

Eighth Round – Paul 10-9 (Paul 80-72)

Paul’s stamina is still his biggest issue. He’s down tired and if he had a more capable opponent in front of him there could be something happening here. Because Chavez’s motor is nearly non-existent, there is no consequence. Another round for Paul.

Seventh Round – Paul 10-9 (Paul 70-63)

Chavez Jr. is done and at this point, we’re just waiting to see this one end. Paul is walking to an easy decision victory. He’s probably not going to stop Chavez, but he’s headed for a win.

Sixth Round – Paul 10-9 (Paul 60-54)

That’s the best round of the fight from an action standpoint. Chavez is at least trying now, but he’s done.

Fifth Round – Paul 10-9 (Paul 50-45)

It’s getting a little more interesting. Paul is still winning the rounds with his jab, but Chavez is turning up the aggression. He’s pushing the pace and getting closer with some of his shots.

Fourth Round – Paul 10-9 (Paul 40-36)

This was Chavez J’r’s best round. He tried to offer some offense and landed a couple of power shots. It wasn’t enough to win the round as Paul responded each time with better work. Hopefully it’ll get competitive the rest of the way.

Third Round – Paul 10-9 (Paul 30-27)

It’s a shutout so far in favor of Paul. Chavez did land a left hook, but that’s it.

Second Round – Paul 10-9 (Paul 20-18)

Paul is slapping Chavez Jr. around. This is more embarrassing than the Tyson fight. At least Mike was 58 years old. Chavez Jr. doesn’t look like he was ever a professional fighter.

First Round – Paul 10-9

Through the first round, it doesn’t appear Chavez Jr. is here to win. Paul controlled the round and it seems like the crowd will be booing soon.

Ramirez def. Dorticos via unanimous decision (115-112×3, 117-110)

Twelfth Round – Ramirez 10-9 (Ramirez 117-110)

Ramirez closed the fight in style and coasted to a victory on my card.

Eleventh Round – Dorticos 10-9 (Ramirez 107-101)

Dorticos rebounded in the 11th, but it looked like Ramirez may have been taking a round off ahead of the final frame.

Tenth Round – Ramirez 10-8 (Ramirez 98-91)

Ramirez has Dorticos thoroughly frustrated. After repeated attempts to land low blows the referee finally penalized Dorticos. He’s being demoralized at this point.

Ninth Round – Ramirez 10-9 (Ramirez 88-83)

Dorticos is still trying, but he can’t find an opening to land anything serious. Ramirez is doing what he does, and that’s outclass everyone not named Dmitry Bivol.

Eighth Round – Ramirez 10-9 (Ramirez 78-74)

Ramirez seems to have found the formula. He is finding success fighting close as his accuracy and footwork are creating advantageous angles. Pro-level performance so far against a strong fighter.

Seventh Round – Ramirez 10-9 (Ramirez 68-65)

That was Ramirez’s best round. Beautiful combination to the end the round and it appears Zurdo might be creating some distance in this fight.

Sixth Round – Ramirez 10-9 (Ramirez 58-56)

Ramirez might be gaining an advantage based on his cardio at this point. He seemed to have a bit more activity in that round. It was another close round, but I gave it to Ramirez.

Fifth Round – Ramirez 10-9 (Ramirez 48-47)

This was the closest round of the fight and could have gone either way. I gave it to Ramirez based on the jab and 1-2 combinations.

Fourth Round – Dorticos 10-9 (Even at 38-38)

The Cuban appears to be gaining confidence. He backed Ramirez up in the fourth and imposed his will to take the round.

Third Round – Ramirez 10-9 (Ramirez 29-28)

Excellent round from Ramirez. His counters, specifically the left hand to the body, was scoring well. Dorticos is still there firing powerful 1-2 combos, but this round went to Ramirez.

Second Round – Dorticos 10-9 (Even at 19)

Dorticos’ power is evident. He hasn’t stunned Ramirez yet, but he is finding a home for his shots a bit more. His shots were straying low, but still won the round.

First Round – Ramirez 10-9

Zurdo is landing consistently through the guard with straight shots, but he has to be careful. Dorticos’ power is real. He throws thudding shots that can hurt any cruiserweight.

Curriel def. Rodriguez via TKO 4

Here’s the damage Curriel did to his opponent’s face.

Fourth Round – Curriel TKO4

Curriel was too much. A nasty uppercut drops Rodriguez. The latter got to his feet, but the referee ultimately rescued him.

Third Round – Curriel 10-9 (Curriel 29-28)

This one is action packed, but it may not last much longer. Curriel is a better fighter and at this point, it’s more about how much Rodriguez can take.

Second Round – Curriel 10-9 (Even 19-19)

Curriel has begun the onslaught. He’s bombing away in the second round.

First Round – Rodriguez 10-9

The underdog took the first round. Despite odd body language, he did the better work in the opening frame.

Rodriguez def. Griffin via KO 10

Tenth Round – Rodriguez Wins by KO10

Wow! Another crazy finish. Rodriguez scores a buzzer-beater win by KO in a fight that seemed very close. I want to see what the official scorecards were at the time of the stoppage.

In any case, another huge left hook rocked Griffin badly. He tried to regain his wherewithal, but couldn’t and went crashing to the canvas. Griffin could not beat the count as he went back down as the referee’s count reached nine.

That’s a tough way to lose.

Ninth Round – Rodriguez 10-9 (Griffin 86-84)

Rodriguez came back strong. He nearly dropped Griffin with a vicious left hook. Griffin stayed on his feet, but could not do enough to take the frame back. Good fight.

Eighth Round – Griffin 10-8 (Griffin 77-74)

Griffin has come alive. He scored a knockdown in the eighth with a well-placed straight right hand. It was a clean knockdown and huge for Griffin.

Griffin has come alive. He scored a knockdown in the eighth with a well-placed straight right hand. It was a clean knockdown and huge for Griffin.

Seventh Round – Griffin 10-9 (Griffin 67-66)

Griffin is being pushed in a major way. The last round was one of the best since early in the fight. He’s up slightly on my card.

Sixth Round – Rodriguez 10-9 (Even at 57)

Rodriguez is taking control of the fight. Griffin needs to land something of consequence. If he doesn’t, it could lead to a loss for Griffin.

Fifth Round – Rodriguez 10-9 (Griffin 48-47)

Rodriguez did a great job backing Griffin up and the latter isn’t great moving backward. The better power shots came from Rosriguez and he earned the round.

Fourth Round – Griffin 10-9 (Griffin 39-37)

Griffin is beginning to settle down and gaining some comfort level with Rodriguez’s speed. This was his best round of the fight.

Third Round – Griffin 10-9 (Griffin 29-28)

The round started off better for Griffin with effective counter punching, but Rodriguez stung him with a left hook. Griffin slowed his attack, but still did enough to win the round on my card.

Second Round – Rodriguez 10-9 (Even at 19-19)

Rodriguez’s speed is a problem for Griffin. He’s a paralyzing him with it and now taking advantage of his opponent’s hesitancy. Griffin needs to make an adjustment or he’ll find himself in trouble.

First Round – Griffin 10-9

A very tentative first round goes Griffin’s way, but not by much. He needs to throw the jab more to take advantage of his length. It seems like he’s a bit cautious because Rodriguez is quicker than he expected.

Griffin has legit star power, but he’s 31 years old and getting to the mainstream a little late. We’ll see what he has soon.

Schofield def. Farmer via KO1

This was an amazing performance and easily the biggest win of his career.

WOW!

In the first round, Schofield just destroyed Farmer in the first 90 seconds. This was a complete demolition. Immediate reaction tells the story.

Farmer vs. Schofield is underway, I’ll be scoring each round.

We’re moving toward the pay-per-view portion which begins at 8pm ET. Keep it locked for the latest results.

Holm def. Vega Underway via Unanimous Decision – Official Scorecard: 100-90×3

Tenth Round

Holm’s straight right hand has been the best weapon all night. This one should be scored 100-90 on all three cards.

Eighth Round

Through seven rounds, Holm is pitching a shutout. Vega looks happy to have been in the ring with a legend. She’s fighting, but not necessarily trying to win.

Sixth Round

Holm is winning this one easy with faster hands, better feet and more accurate punching.

We’ve already seen one upset tonight with Renee Alvarado handing Victor Morales his first pro loss, but Holm is seemingly intent on escaping the upset bug. Through three rounds, Holm is dismantling Vega.
