Oleksandr Usyk may lose his championship belt: details of the upcoming fight with Jake Paul.

World champion Oleksandr Usyk may lose one of his belts due to a fight with blogger and fighter Jake Paul. Usyk himself is interested in this bout, as reported by Seconds Out.

The director of the Ukrainian team, Serhiy Lapin, stated that negotiations with Jake Paul's team are ongoing. A likely format for the meeting is an MMA fight that could take place in early 2026.

However, Usyk also plans to fight Joseph Parker in the fall of 2025 to avoid losing his WBO belt. This is considered the next step in the career of the undisputed champion.

The idea of a battle with Jake Paul is seen as a commercial and image part of the sport. The Ukrainian team recognizes the interest of viewers but is also aware of the risks and conditions of holding such a bout. Everything will depend on the willingness of both sides to compromise.

Previously, details of the upcoming bout between Usyk and Parker were revealed, and scandalous boxer Jake Paul shared his views on the fight with Usyk. Daniel Dubois' trainer also expressed his opinion on the Briton's rematch against Usyk.

World champion Oleksandr Usyk is set to meet Jake Paul in the ring, but he also does not forget about the planned bout with Joseph Parker to avoid losing the WBO belt. The battle with the blogger is likely to be not only a sporting event but also a commercial one that awakens viewer interest. All of this becomes part of the mystery and peculiarity of the sport, where the main thing is not just to fight but to remain on top.
