Jake Paul's official purse for Julio Cesar Chavez Jr fight leaves fans baffled
The 'Problem Child' scored a decisive unanimous decision victory on Saturday night in his first fight since defeating Mike Tyson back in November Fans have been left surprised after Jake Paul's disclosed purse for his clash with Julio Cesar Chavez Jr was revealed. The 'Problem Child' earned $300,000 for his headlining fight against Chavez Jr - who took home $750,000, according to to the California State Athletic Commission. The full list of disclosed salaries from CSAC executive director Andy Foster was obtained by MMA Junkie. Paul extended his boxing record to 12-1 after scoring a dominant unanimous decision victory over the former middleweight champion. The YouTuber-turned-boxer never looked in any real danger until the final two rounds of the cruiserweight dust-up after Chavez Jr began to unload. Immediately after the fight, fans were left stunned by the official fight salaries. "Ain't that a little too low for Jake Paul?" One fan wrote, while another added: "Wait Jake ain't making the most on his card?" A third user commented: "Jake Paul is getting paid less than Chavez Jr? No way!!" Of all the 22 fighters to compete on the event co-promoted by MVP and Oscar De La Hoya's Golden Boy Promotions, eight earned a disclosed six figures, with Gilberto Ramirez topping the list at $1.5 million following his win over Yuniel Dorticos - who pocketed $300,000. While fans may be surprised by Paul's earnings, it is worth noting that the numbers reflect payouts disclosed to the California commission and do not include pay-per-view cuts, gate cuts and discretionary bonuses that may have been paid by the promotions. Seeing as he topped the bill, Paul will likely earn millions from the pay-per-view sales. Immediately after the win on Saturday night, Paul revealed he wants a rematch with Tommy Fury before taking on Anthony Joshua next year - but the YouTuber could face Gervonta Davis next. The social media star called out five fighters in his post-fight interview, including cruiserweight world champions Gilberto Ramirez and Badou Jack. "I want tougher fighters. I want to be world champion. Zurdo looked slow as s*** tonight. That'd be easy work, too," said Paul. 'Badou Jack. I want everybody. Anthony Joshua, Gervonta. And Tommy, stop running. I'm hustling, getting warmed up. You've already seen my face, get used to seeing it more." Asked when he wants to return, he added: "As soon as possible. I'm staying active, I'm fighting everybody." Paul's partner Nakisa Bidarian later confirmed Paul will target a rematch with Fury having lost to the Brit in 2023. "If it's not for the title, then it's looking at Tommy, if he's reasonable, then Anthony Joshua. He's adamant he wants to make that fight happen at the end of 2026 and we're going to meet with Matchroom when we're in New York for the greatest trilogy in the history of boxing, Amanda Serrano vs Katie Taylor 3." But according to Eddie Hearn, Paul has already agreed an exhibition bout with lightweight world champion Davis, assuming he comes through his rematch with Lamont Roach. Asked about a potential fight between Paul and Joshua, Hearn said: "We know that Gervonta [Davis] is going to fight Jake Paul in November. Then, we'll see what happens. It'll be interesting to go from Gervonta Davis to Anthony Joshua."

DR Congo bans reporting on ex-President Kabila
The Congolese government has banned the media from reporting on the activities of former President Joseph Kabila and interviewing members of his party. This comes after Kabila returned to the Democratic Republic of Congo last month amid heightened tensions between himself and the government, led by his successor, President Félix Tshisekedi. The authorities are pushing to prosecute Mr Kabila amid accusations of treason and alleged links to the M23 rebels which have been fighting the army - something he has previously denied. Breaches of the ban could result in suspension, said the head of DR Congo's media regulator, Christian Bosembe. Responding to the announcement by the regulator, known as the the Supreme Council of Audiovisual and Communication (CSAC), an M23 spokesperson said the media outlets in parts of the country under its control would not abide by the ban. There has been no immediate response from Kabila, however, the secretary of his party, Ferdinand Kambere, rejected the ban, describing it as "arbitrary" on X. Kabila was last week seen in the eastern DR Congo city of Goma, which is under M23 control. He has been highly critical of the government after the senate voted to lift his immunity over his alleged support of the M23 group. DR Congo's neighbour, Rwanda has been accused of backing the rebel group, but Kigali denies this. Kabila, who has not yet been charged with any crime, launched a scathing attack on the Congolese government last month, describing it as a "dictatorship". A government spokesperson at the time rejected Kabila's criticism, saying he had "nothing to offer". Reacting to the announcement by the CSAC, activist and president of the African Association for the Defence of Human Rights, Jean-Claude Katende, said the ban constituted an "abuse of power", according to local media. Meanwhile, political analyst Ambroise Mamba indicated on X that the ban could be self-defeating because it could pique people's interest to find out about Kabila's movements and activities. Since returning to DR Congo after two years of self-imposed exile, Kabila's party has been posting his activities online, which include visiting civil society groups and local religious representatives in Goma.

Emmanuel Navarrete vs Charly Suarez result overturned as rematch is ordered
Emmanuel Navarrete has been ordered to have a rematch with Charly Suarez after his controversial win was overturned to a No Contest. The Mexican claimed a technical victory over Suarez (18-0, 10 knockouts), but the California State Athletic Commission (CSAC) has since reviewed the circumstances of the win after an appeal from Suarez's team. After doing so, it has now changed the result to a No Contest. That came after the bout went to the scorecards after eight rounds, due to Navarrete seemingly sustaining a cut from an accidental clash of heads, with the champion leading on all three cards at the time. Dr AnnMaria De Mars, commissioner of the CSAC, said: 'Suarez punched [Navarrete] directly where he got cut, but I'm always against changing a loss to a win.' The rules would dictate that if a replay was available before the result was announced, Suarez would have won, as Navarrete (39-2-1, 32 KOs) was unable to continue due to the severity of the cut. But the referee judged the cut to be from an accidental head clash and thus gave the win to Navarrette, due to his points lead. Since the judgement, the WBO has ordered an immediate rematch between Navarrete and Suarez, meaning that should the champion want to defend his belt in his next fight, it will have to be against the Filipino challenger. Suarez's lawyer, Ricardo Navalta, said that although the result of the review was positive, his fighter might have been robbed of the biggest moment of his career. He said: 'These guys spend their whole lives for a night like this. To feel that you didn't get a fair shake, that's pretty rough. This kid has already been deprived of his moment.' Top Rank boss Bob Arum already teased a show in the Philippines to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier's 'Thrilla in Manila', saying the rematch would be perfect for this card in the aftermath of the fight.
