JAKE PAUL has received an indefinite medical suspension after suffering a broken jaw against Anthony Joshua.
The YouTuber-turned-boxer was down four times against AJ – bravely making it to his feet – but the final right hand ended the bout.
It also left Paul with a jaw shattered in two places and needing multiple titanium plates to repair the damage.
As a result, the Florida Athletic Commission have placed Paul on an indefinite ban until a physician can clear him to fight again, MMA Fighting report.
The American – now 14-2 as a boxer – confirmed he will not retire from the sport and wants to fight again this year.
But following the surgery on his jaw – that left him only able to eat liquids for a week – Paul is even struggling to sleep.
He told DAZN: “I got four plates in my jaw but that’s part of the sport. The healing process has been a little bit tough.
“I’m a little bit tired, it’s hard to sleep, I go onto the pillow and then my jaw twerks up to the left and I wake up so.
“It’s all part of the sport and it was an amazing night and I learned a lot, gained a lot of experience and we’re moving onto more fights this year.”
