Jake Paul’s Earnings From YouTube: Is He the Richest YouTuber?

Jake Paul is currently one of the hottest prospects in the world of boxing. ‘The Problem Child’ will step inside the squared ring for the fourth time in his career this weekend as he takes on the former 5-time UFC champion, Tyron ‘The Chosen One’ Woodley.

Paul is quite a popular figure among the new generation of internet users. While stepping inside the boxing ring has certainly elevated his stature as a celebrity, it was his YouTube channel back in the day that earned him the primary fame that he had. Paul has over 2o M subscribers in his channel. So, needless to mention he is one of the most popular individuals on the platform.

While he started out as a vlogger, his recent videos mostly contain footage of his venture into the boxing world. However, one thing has remained constant, the astronomical number of views he gets on his channel.

How much has Jake Paul made from YouTube?

‘The Problem Child‘ has a total net worth of $30 Million at the moment. He has made some hefty amounts from boxing. However, his number from YouTube is stunning as well.

Paul earned an estimated $11.5 Million in 2016. He made $11 Million in 2017. And in 2018, ‘The Problem Child’ went on to make a massive $20 Million revenue which ranked him the second highest-earning YouTuber in the world at that point in time.

Paul defeated Ben Askren via first-round knockout in his last fight. However, he will have a major step up in competition against Tyron Woodley as, unlike Askren, he has a good striking background. Woodley also has a few vicious knockout finishes in his MMA career. Whether those skills can transition inside the squared ring, remains to be seen.
