Paul confirmed what many suspected that he suffered a broken jaw. In fact, he broke his jaw in two places.

He shared the x-ray showing the jaw broken on both sides of his mouth.

Paul also shared that he had undergone surgery earlier in the day, and that the procedure was successful.

Was It Worth It?

It depends who you ask.

How much money Jake Paul earned for this bout is not immediately clear though some reports indicate it is around $92 million.

Some argue that a broken jaw is not a big deal for that payday. Internet mathematicians broke down how much he earned per second, minute, and round.

Others would prefer to eat their Christmas dinner with a fork and not inhale it through a straw.
