Jake Paul and Ben Askren are still yet to enter the ring for their much-anticipated bout at Triller Fight Club, meaning there’s still time to buy the PPV to tune into the Jake Paul vs Ben Askren live stream.

This event is coming courtesy of Triller Fight Club, a new promotion started by the popular social media video sharing platform Triller. This is the second such boxing event hosted by Triller. Last November, the company joined with the Legends Only League to bring Mike Tyson back into the ring in an exhibition fight against Roy Jones, Jr. Fighting as the co-main event was Jake Paul, who fought and defeated former NBA player Nate Robinson in what was Paul’s second professional boxing match. The knockout went viral on social media and Paul later openly challenged UFC star Conor McGregor to a boxing contest.

Although “Jake Paul vs. Conor McGregor” hasn’t yet materialized (and probably won’t), Triller Fight Club did manage to snag retired UFC fighter, Ben Askren, as Paul’s next boxing opponent. Paul is the slight favorite to win, although Askren will be the first professional fighter that the YouTuber has actually faced in the ring. If you want to see how the chips fall tonight, you can watch the Jake Paul vs. Ben Askren live stream online when you sign up for FITE.tv and grab the pay-per-view for $50.

Some of the best shots in Grok Imagine’s AI-made Odyssey don’t contain actors. Ancient landscapes stretch into the distance. Close-ups of grimy hands suggest people who have touched something rougher than a keyboard. For a few seconds, the illusion holds.

YouTube videos could soon look better without eating quite so much data, right? Thankfully, the platform plans to introduce a new video format called AV2 on its web player in early 2027, promising more efficient streaming and potentially fewer playback hiccups on slower internet connections. The big headline is a roughly 30% improvement in compression efficiency over AV1, YouTube's existing video format. That doesn't guarantee every video will use 30% less data, but it could make streaming a little easier on both internet connections and data allowances.

What is AV2, and why should viewers care?

YouTube is changing how its Home page works, giving viewers more control over what shows up there and making some of the app’s most-used sections easier to reach. Custom Feeds are now replacing the existing topic chips for eligible users, while YouTube is also testing a redesigned top bar on mobile that moves Subscriptions closer to the Home feed.

YouTube first started experimenting with Custom Feeds earlier this year, letting you type out what you wanted to watch and turning that request into its own stream of recommendations. Now, the feature is starting to look less like a side experiment and more like something YouTube actually wants people to use as part of their everyday Home page.
