Paul suffered a broken jaw during his December boxing match against former heavyweight champion Joshua, which ended with the influencer being stopped in the fifth round. The 26-year-old social media star revealed he needed additional surgery to address complications with the hardware used to initially repair the damage.
'Screws were coming loose,' Paul explained in a social media post, detailing the second procedure just weeks after the first. The fight against Joshua marked Paul's first career defeat and came amid his transition from YouTube personality to professional boxer.
