Artem is a bum. He should stick to mma. Bareknuckle isn’t for face first guys who throw wingdingers. This sport is more technical then boxing and artem lacks any skill. They bring him in for fanbase and because average joes like rock em sock em robots.
Y'all need to watch a different sport. Part of the game, part of selling a fight. Paulie is a great commentator btw. Has both first hand knowledge about the sport and the ability to articulate himself in a way that the audience understands. That is not that common in fighters
Lost a lot of respect for Paulie ever since the Mayweather McGregor debacle. I genuinely liked him... but hes been pretty sleazy lately.
Lobov seems to have more honour than both Conor and Paulie, who are actually very similar. They're both mouthy, thuggish, attention whoring, money obsessed street trash who just happen to be smarter than general street trash. Conor manipulated Paulie in that camp and definitely set him up in the spar and humiliated him after. Conor was also a snake with Chris Van South African Guy, so we know Conor has no integrity. But Paulie likes to antagonise with his pseudo-gangster tough talk and attitude, get in people's face etc., and his behaviour towards Lobov in particular has shown his true colors, really. Anyone who has dealt with his type understands how unbearable they are in real life, little Danny Devitos running around. Paulie's gripe with Lobov is pretty absurd considering Lobov seems to have been quite respectful at the spar. Slapping and spitting on this guy is definitely low, and Paulie has been stupid because he will turn a lot of people off with this, and since his game is to have the high moral ground, the honour, it's not looking good for him. He's coming across pretty bad, while Lobov is just gaining more fans. I'm not sure about this fight. Lobov is genuinely tough and it looks like it's harder to keep people off and clinch in this sport. Lobov reckons he spars with good boxers in Ireland. Imagine if Paulie couldn't keep the range and Lobov actually managed to maul him up close with clean shots. Paulie is 38 now, with a game based on speed and reflexes.
Malignaggi in shape vs Mcgregor would be a good Bareknuckle fight. I could find somebody at the local bar who could beat artem.
Yet you support Floyd? He's in that same bracket. Anyway, I don't mind Paulie most of the time but spitting is low, disappointing that he did that.
Pauli spat his chewing gum at him, it wasn't a full saliva squirt, Pauli will box this guys head off, cut him up etc. lobov has a chance to land something lucky, that's about it.
