Jake Paul Topples KSI in the Forbes List of Top Creators Despite Not Being a Full Time Creator

YouTuber turned boxer, Jake Paul, has made the sport of boxing the number one priority in his life. However, this does not mean he has lost his street cred in the social media world. A recent report by Forbes ranked Paul as one of the best creators of 2022.

It is worth noting that Paul is not as active as he once was on social media. He has, in fact, transitioned from being a prankster to having a full-time career as a pugilist. Meanwhile, Forbes recently released a list titled ‘Top Creators 2022‘. And Paul secured the 10th position on the list.

According to reports, he has a total of 57.3 million followers. Moreover, Paul also has a user engagement of 1.49%. Paul currently uses his social media to hype up and create a bit of drama around his matching.

Meanwhile, fellow social media personality and boxer, KSI, also made it to the list. But it should be mentioned that in the 20th position, he was placed much below Paul. KSI has a total of 45.1 million followers. However, he has a higher user engagement than Paul at 3.42%.
