Jake Paul Reacts as His Trading Card Sells for a Record $20,400: “Surreal Feeling”

Jake Paul, the YouTuber-turned-boxer who continues to make headlines inside and outside the ring, has reached another milestone — this time in the world of sports collectibles. A limited-edition Jake Paul trading card has sold for a record $20,400 in a Fanatics Collect Premier Auction, marking the highest-ever sale for any Jake Paul card.

The card, a 2024 Topps Chrome Boxing Autograph SuperFractor (1/1), was graded and certified authentic by CGC. It features Paul posing in a fighting stance, complete with his autograph, capturing the unique crossover appeal he has built between entertainment and professional boxing.

Reacting to the sale, Jake Paul shared a nostalgic post on X (formerly Twitter) that connected the moment to his childhood. “Insane!! When my brother and I were kids we found thousands of Topps sports cards while cleaning out houses working for my Dad,” he wrote. “It was so fun to collect, trade and sell them. Surreal feeling to now have one of my own sell for this much.”

The sale represents a symbolic full-circle moment for Paul, who once collected and traded sports cards as a kid and now sees his own memorabilia achieving record-breaking value. It also reinforces his influence as one of the most marketable figures in modern boxing, bridging the gap between mainstream entertainment and traditional sports.
