Jake Paul‘s rise to glory in the boxing world did not just happen overnight. The Problem Child fought his first professional fight against popular YouTuber Ali Eson Gib and has not looked back since then. Suffering his only loss against The World Heavyweight champion’s brother Tommy Fury, Paul has defeated countless fighters on his path to the top. That is just in the world of boxing. Paul has also stayed in the limelight through his YouTube career.
With the fame he has amassed through his career in different fields, it goes without question that he holds a lot of influence. His audience mainly consists of the younger generation or what people refer to as the ‘Gen Z’. It is due to his influence over this generation that the US Presidential hopeful Vivek Ramaswamy has asked Jake Paul to be a part of his campaign in Iowa.

Ramaswamy hopes that Paul can deliver ‘a knockout punch’ for him in his campaign for the GOP nomination in Iowa. A big spark is what Ramaswamy needs. He is well below 10% of likely Iowa GOP caucus voters, according to recent polls, but Vivek’s campaign with Paul is certain they are reaching voters who have not yet cast their votes. According to TMZ, the duo will travel together to the four largest universities in Iowa in an attempt to have younger people cast their votes.

Ramaswamy greeted Paul when the latter arrived at Caribe Royale Orlando in Orlando, Florida for his fight against Andre August. It was on the sidelines of his fight that the two had a chance to talk about this campaign. Paul had even made a tweet captioned, “Vivek for President?” The Problem Child has publicly voiced several times that he would be voting for Ramaswamy if the latter ever becomes the presidential candidate.
It is clear that Paul holds the ability to draw the attention of the crowd. His appeal to teenagers and college students is the one reason that Ramaswamy would want him in his rally. Will he be successful at doing that during the campaign in Iowa? Ramaswamy is not the only one who thinks Paul is doing a great job.
