YouTube star and prizefighter, he had a busy 2021 with three fights in ten month. This earned him PS30million.
Jake Paul hopes to make a return to boxing by September, or "maybe later".
Paul is now focusing on the promotion of the women's superfight between Amanda Serrano (33), and Katie Taylor (35) but warned that it may be some time before he puts the gloves up again.
On The MMA Hour, he said: "There are many things going on in my life.
"I will be doing these press conferences in the next two weeks to promote Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano. I am also very busy with my venture capital fund on the business side.
"So, I haven’t even gotten back to the gym or been training at any point.
"I would suggest August-September, but I need to talk with my coaches. Perhaps later. It's something I'm working on.
"Of course, if the stars align in a certain way or I have an epiphany, things could move about but right now, I don't feel motivated to go back to another training camp."
Free Bets: Get more than PS2,000 in NEW CUSTOMER DEALSPaul, 25, recently defeated Tyron Woodley (39), in a short-notice rematch. This was after Tommy Fury (22) pulled out with a broken bone.
Woodley lost on points four months prior to Woodley taking the fight. Paul has now KO'd all his opponents in the ring.
It was a result of prior KO's by YouTuber "AnEsonGib", ex-NBA player Nate Robinson (37), and former UFC welterweight Ben Askren (37).
Paul will still face a professional boxer with previous experience, even though Fury has withdrawn.
He named as his only boxing opponent, ex-world champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., 35, despite the criticisms of opponents.
Paul stated that there aren't many boxers with a name big enough to make the event interesting enough.
"It would be almost like fighting for the world championship would be the only fight that would make a sale, and I don’t even know the name of the cruiserweight champion.
"I believe Canelo was meant to fight him, but it just doesn’t make sense. This is my sixth fight, and this man's a world champ.
"So no one really has a bigger name in boxing than Chavez Jr."
