Jake Paul Phony Fights Discussion

Poatan would murder Jake

 

Jake Paul isn't likely to be champ but hes good enough where MMA fighters(especially the sort that aren't under contract) don't really have a chance of beating him and they should stop trying but won't because of their pay.

 

I see Chavez Jr is fighting on Jakes next card vs former UFC fighter Uriah Hall. Last ditch effort for JC Chavez Jr to get a payday if he wins to fight (and more than likely) lose to Paul?

 

Hall will beat him.

 

Perieria would destroy Paul in boxing. Look at the washed up MMA fighters Paul has fought. You wouldn't expect Woodley, 48 year old Silva or even the relatively durable Diaz to last 2 or 3 rounds with Pereira.

I'd give Pereira a much better chance of beating N'Gannou than any of those who fought Paul would have of beating Pereira.

Also Adesanya boxed I believe and did quite well.

 

I thought Chavez Jr outboxed Silva for a round or 2 then completely gassed.

If you're completely unfit you can't expect to beat a naturally bigger man who can do the rounds.

Not seen Hall much but Chavez is no more than an unfit Brit level smw journeyman at this stage. This is at cruiserweight so he should lose.

 

I just wondered who you think Jake Paul has to fight/beat in order to get respect of boxing fans.

Obviously, taking out MMA fighters and veteran's certainly isn't the one.
But who would you like to see as his next step(s), if the goal is ultimately getting respect?

Chavez Jr, who didn't look great, has been mentioned after Mike..
But I'm curious to see what you guys think!

 

Cant think of any specific names that are realistic, but if he just stopped with the circus and consistently fought semi decent cruiserweights on the undercards of actual elite boxers I dont think anyone would be shitting on him.

 

Why should he fight on the undercard when he's doing well as the main card?

He should fight mbilli or any legit boxer from 168-200

 

Because it hurts boxings credibility when a none boxer can walk straight into PPV main events simply because of their fanbase from something else. Only high level boxers should be main eventing big boxing cards.

 

Let's see. He has 10 wins. And nine of those guys had zero wins.

What could he possibly do to gain more respect?

Let me see. Let me see. I got it. Fight a 60-year-old who has spent the last 20 years smoking tons of weed every day?

Um, no. That's not it.

 

Nothing.

The clown train has already started and has been running for a while. There are actual fighters who truly dedicated themselves to the craft that get disrespect, so to pose a question asking what someone in it as a caricature of a fighter can do to gain respect is a silly question. He makes a mockery of the credibility of boxing.

 

By basically and simply just ****ing off.
