YouTuber-turned-aspiring professional boxer Jake Paul will be back in the ring for the first time in seven months since his match against Mike Tyson. This Saturday, he’s squaring up against Julio César Chávez Jr., the 39-year-old son of former boxing champion Julio César Chávez. The event marks Chavez Jr.’s first fight since defeating Uriah Hall in July 2024.
Saturday’s fight will also be a chance for Paul to be ranked in the World Boxing Council. His opponent is already a middleweight World Boxing Council champion who’s secured 54 wins, but, like Tyson, Chavez Jr. will need to prove that he’s still at a high level in his fight against Paul.

How to watch the Paul vs. Chavez Jr. fight with a VPN

DAZN is available in several countries, including the US and Canada, but you can check to see which other countries are available.
A VPN can help enhance your privacy and security when streaming. It encrypts your traffic and prevents your internet service provider from throttling your speeds, and can also be helpful when connecting to public Wi-Fi networks while traveling, adding an extra layer of protection for your devices and logins.
VPNs are legal in many countries, including the US and Canada, and can be used for legitimate purposes such as improving online privacy and security. However, some streaming services may have policies restricting VPN usage to access region-specific content. If you’re considering a VPN for streaming, check the platform’s terms of service to ensure compliance.
If you choose to use a VPN, follow the provider’s installation instructions, ensuring you’re connected securely and in compliance with applicable laws and service agreements. Some streaming platforms may block access when a VPN is detected, so verifying if your streaming subscription allows VPN usage is crucial.

ExpressVPN is our current best VPN pick for people who want a reliable and safe VPN and it works on a variety of devices. It’s normally $13 a month but if you sign up for an annual subscription for $100 you’ll get three months free and save 49%. That’s the equivalent of $6.67 a month.

CNET experts recommend ExpressVPN for streaming sports. It’s $13 a month, but a free trial is available. There are free VPNs, but they aren’t ideal for streaming because they tend to have lower speeds and little control over your data sharing or privacy. And you won’t be able to choose your server location, which is usually needed when content is only available in select countries.
