Thorslund, 31, is a two-weight world champion, currently holding the WBC, WBO, and Ring female bantamweight titles. She previously reigned as the WBO female super-bantamweight champion and has a storied career that includes a unanimous decision win over Yulihan Luna in September 2023 to claim the WBC and Ring titles, as well as a successful title defense against Mary Romero in February 2024. Her most recent fight, a unanimous decision victory over Seren Cetin in May 2024 at Copenhagen’s Royal Arena, further solidified her dominance in the sport.
Jake Paul, who has transitioned from YouTube fame to a polarizing figure in professional boxing, shared his excitement about the signing, stating, “Dina Thorslund is the #1 lb for lb boxer on BoxRec and she’s on my team now .”Paul’s growing influence in boxing includes promoting high-profile fights, such as his own bout against Mike Tyson, which garnered significant attention despite technical issues with Netflix’s broadcast.
Thorslund’s addition to Paul’s roster signals his ambition to expand his footprint in the sport, particularly in women’s boxing, which has seen a surge in visibility in recent years. As Thorslund continues her reign as a champion, her partnership with Paul could bring even greater attention to her career, potentially setting the stage for blockbuster fights in the future.
