There’s not going to be any prolonged celebration for Jake Paul’s girlfriend despite his victory over Mike Tyson.
Paul comfortably beat the 58-year-old last week in front of 80,000 fans at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
Although the internet star was able to coast for the majority of the fight against Tyson, Paul still had to put himself through a gruelling training camp to prepare.
The 27-year-old will no doubt enjoy some downtime after playing a key role in putting together a card that drew a gate of over $18million.
Sadly for his girlfriend, Dutch speed skater Jutta Leerdam, she barely had any time with her beau to soak up his victory.
Instead, the Olympic silver medallist has made her way to Nagano, Japan for an event.
Leerdam showed off her pre-flight look on Instagram as she posed in front of a mirror with her suitcase ahead of the 14-hour flight.
She also posted an Instagram story of Paul’s dog, Thor, tugging at her sleeve.
Once she landed in Japan, Leerdam wasted little time in taking to the ice.
But given she’d had barely any time to relax, apart from the 14 hours strapped to a chair on a plane, she soon addressed the one question on many of her fans’ mind.
“To all the people asking if I’m not tired? I am haha,” Leerdam wrote.
“Not expecting a lot for this Asia trip tbh [to be honest], but I still want to skate as good as I can here.

“Also to get some racing ritm [sic] & to get some World Cup points.
“Focus is still on the World Championships in March.”
Leerdam is in Japan to compete in the upcoming International Skating Union (ISU) World Cup event in Nagano, which kicks off on Friday.
The 25-year-old then shifts focus to the next ISU World Cup event in Beijing, China, which starts on November 29.
Prior to Paul’s fight, Leerdam was in fine form on the ice as she took out the 500m and 100m events at the World Cup Qualifying Tournament (WCKT) in Heerenveen, Netherlands, earlier in November.
Thanks to her exploits in Heerenveen, Leerdam has locked in a spot to compete at future ISU World Cup events as every point counts towards determining who will compete at the World Championship in March.
Leerdam already has six World Championship gold medals to her name but will no doubt eye a first Olympic gold at the 2026 Games in Italy.
It is uncertain if Paul will appear rinkside at any of her future events, but he’ll no doubt be cheering Leerdam on from afar for her first events in Japan.
Paul and Leerdam have been an item since April 2023 and first met over social media when the YouTuber-turned-boxer messaged the Olympian on Instagram asking if she’d appear on his podcast.
