Jake Paul had been predicting a first-round knockout against Andre August in the lead-up to their fight. On Friday night, 'The Problem Child' stayed true to his words by knocking out the former three-time regional Golden Glove champion in the first round.

With a record of 10-1-1, while facing the social media star, August was, at least on paper, the most accomplished pro-boxer the YouTuber had ever faced.

However, right from the bell, Paul was in control of the fight, dancing around his opponent with fantastic footwork. Moments later, the social media star sent his opponent crashing down to the canvas with an uppercut.

To make matters worse, the 26-year-old waved goodbye at his downed opponent as he ultimately failed to get back to his feet. Now, fans have flooded social media, discussing the YouTuber's impressive showing and post-fight antics.
