Jake Paul Vs Ben Askren Live Stream: How To Watch Fight Online And On TV

We're now merely hours away from YouTuber Jake Paul taking on ex-MMA fighter Ben Askren in a boxing ring.

Despite having emphatically lost back-to-back UFC fights, Askren - famously knocked out by Jorge Masvidal's flying knee at UFC 239 within just five seconds - has vowed that he won't be bullied by the online star.

Paul, who has won his last two professional bouts by way of stoppage, has vowed during their press conference to knock Askren out within the first two rounds.

The question remains: will Paul make Askren his latest viral hit, or will Askren show enough boxing ability to hand the young YouTuber his first professional loss?
