    in nature, there is no boxing with gloves, never has been. its all done with weapons, where the smarter, faster, more agile man has the advantage. size has never been the determining factor in who rises to king of the hill when everything is on the line.

    In terms of boxing hes improved but still not very good in the grand scheme of things. Athletically he is pretty good but mainly because hes roiding. Same as tommy fury. Neither would have even got their small success without them roids.

    Their still part of the soft generation....the generation that cant do genuine hard work.

    Not saying their not working hard at all but working with roids in your system is a lot easier than working without them.

    I,ll give him credit tho...he has put some genuine dedication into it and i m still surprised hes able to beat ufc guys in a boxing ring. Even if they are a bit hand picked or older.

    Beterbiev just threw his hat in the ring. Would you respect Jake if he took this offer up?

    David Tua should get a crack at the Jake Paul sweepstake.

    Foreman at 58 would probably still have beaten him.

    Don’t let the Anti-Foreman crew see this. :lol: They’d probably favor Paul over a ‘73 Foreman.

    I dunno know about Big Jim. He seemed to be more into caressing than fighting at that stage of his life. Though, that in itself, might keep Paul on the constant run.

    Out of shape, would gas like Tyson and wouldn`t be fast enough to get inside Jake`s 76 inch reach, Jake would easily out-jab him.

    Sullivan would have beat his ass. The rest would be out-moderned by Jake.

    Let's face it, Jake Paul isn't going to fight anyone serious. It will be another ex-boxer or MMA fighter, I've got a good opponent for him, Vitor Belfort. He's got enough size, speed & power to really test Paul, comments.

    It doesn't matter. Physicality matters in sports. Especially in a sport where being tough and strong is the ultimate. There might be a 5'6 basketball player with more skill than LeBron James but no one cares.

    This juice head will never make 175, Jake will offer to fight Artur at heavyweight instead most likely
