Jake Paul made a grand entrance to his fight against Ryan Bourland on March 2 at the Coliseo Jose Miguel Agrelot Arena in San Juan.

I hail from a family of passionate sports lovers, especially combat sports. It
is from there that I realized how aptly combat sports embody life. The words of
Jeremy Lesniak, "It's not about learning to fight, it's about learning to be
better through the expression of action" resonated with the interest I had in
combat sports. I had my first tryst with combat sports when I watched Brock
Lesnar crossing over to the UFC and Manny Pacquiao trading punches with Juan
Manuel Marque in 2008. Captivated by combat sports and to live the sports more
closely, I joined the Boxing family at EssentiallySports in September 2022. With
a background in law, I try to bring a unique perspective to my sports coverage.
The thrill of knockouts and the action from my early memories instantly made me
fall in love with combat sports, which has only grown with time. While a purist
at heart, I'm excited at the prospect of the recent surge of crossover combat
sports. I strongly believe that the flair and the entertainment aspect along
with the boxing skills is the new way. Beyond the ring, I enjoy delving into
books and indulging in animes.

Walton has had a respectable amateur career in boxing with over 80 bouts under his belt.
