    Eddie Hearn saying Canelo vs Paul looks like a done deal although not sure of true it is.....

    If we're honest, Canelo vs Jake Paul is a much bigger risk than Fury fighting Ngannou. Because Fury was bigger than Ngannou and in the same weight class. Whereas Jake Paul is much, much bigger than Canelo!

    And the irony is that most boxing "experts" gave Ngannou no chance and he ended up taking Fury to the limit and many fans thought he was robbed in the decision!! Literally if you thought Ngannou had even a chance against Fury before the fight you would be accused of being a "casual" or an MMA fanboy. And then look what happened!! Ngannou pretty much shocked the world against Fury.

    And Fury went on to give Usyk 2 very close competitive fights. So an MMA boxing novice arguably beat Fury, who arguably beat (or nearly beat) Usyk.

    But then fans for some reason think Paul has no chance against Canelo despite being the much heavier guy. So do "Weight classes exist for a reason" or not?

    Jake Paul works Chad Dawson in sparring, people underestimating him

    Canelo v Jake is a MUCH worse fight. LIke, not even close. At least w/ Ngannou, dude was a skilled professional fighter, even if not solely in boxing. Paul's technique is just garbage as well.

    :lol: what a crock of ****.... Who cares if Paul is bigger. His techique is amatuerish at best. The weight difference doesn't matter when the skill difference is light years apart. You're still just a shameless schill...

    I can sort of forgive fury as he then fought usyk and if Canelo fights Crawford then I don’t really care if he fights Paul

    if canelo takes it seriously I see Paul getting the rocky fielding treatment

    So then would Crawford be able to easily beat Jake Paul too? Since according to you the weight difference doesn't matter when the skill difference is light years apart. :facepalm:

    How about Inoue vs Jake Paul? Does the weight difference not matter there too? :facepalm:

    Yes, and a washed up AJ that was destroyed by Dubois who himself was Koed by a jab from Usyk nearly killed Ngannou. Imagine what a jab of Usyk would do to Ngannou

    Pretty sure T C would beat Paul as well. Jake Paul is NOT a real top level boxer at all. If you think so, more power to ya with your schilling...

    And now yoiu are digging all the way down to a 122 fighter? Desperate much? :lol:

    Who said anything about Paul being "top level"? There's "not a real boxer" then there's "not a real top level boxer". Well which is it? Jake Paul is clearly a "real" boxer, more of a "real" boxer than Ngannou who gave Fury fits, who then went on to give Usyk two very close fights.
    I'm demonstrating how silly your logic is. Remember you said "The weight difference doesn't matter when the skill difference is light years apart."

    That was what you said. I'm asking you, OK then lets apply that logic to other fighers. Crawford, Inoue, anybody. You don't seem as confident about Bud beating Jake Paul, which exposes your absurd logic that "The weight difference doesn't matter when the skill difference is light years apart."

    Clearly it does, it's just that you're choosing to not apply that to Canelo for some reason.

    I cannot say what happened on this fight but ngannou kissed the canvas so hard against joshua and even took a nap on it that its obvious any top level boxer should take him out easily . Fury wanted to play for a show and it backfired ?

    If such showfights are not scripted silently paul has zero chances against canelo .

    You're just a fn idiot. No one considers Paul a real professional boxer on par with the current top guys. Pathetic fanboy as usual...

    Ngannou had actually excelled in fighting and is physically a monster. Also, he gave Fury a good fight.

    Jake Paul is literally just a journeyman that attracts huge hype by mindless sheep that continue to pay to watch his fights.

    Ngannou was a professional world champion in another combat sport.
    Paul has just the level of a good amateur.
