Jake Paul Phony Fights Discussion

It might take them a couple of rounds, even a few rounds to beat Paul but it would be an inevitable conclusion.

 

Yes, if they fight their usual style and paul inevitably fights just to survive it will take a few rounds.

If for some reason they try to ko him in 1, I expect them to do it with a high probability. Imagine Opetaia going for him. Since Nyika I actually don't want to see that...

 

No way he makes it out of the first round against Opetaia or Zurdo. Jack is older he might take his time a bit more but still gets him out of there in 2 or 3 rounds.
I even reckon Tank will stop him if that fight happens he will time him after a few rounds.

 

They shouldn't fight him or he'll think he's world class even if he loses in the first round.

 

Jai would finish him in a minute

 

Like most here I'm no fan of Paul but I do wince on his behalf when I think of Jai landing clean shots on his head. The X-rays would look like a Rorschach test

 

Somewhat paradoxically, and counterintuitively, I think they would fight very cautiously in the beginning and Paul would last a few rounds. They wouldn't want to be embarrassed by Paul landing any meaningful punches.

 

Beterbiev challenged him too at one point.

 

He fights the very weakest (Chavez Jr.) and the oldest (Mike Tyson) opponents he can find, yet is still making enormous amounts of money off their names (in the case of Chavez Jr., his father's name).

At the same time, many talented fighters cannot seem to get into meaningful fights nor receive good paydays.

There's a decent matchup between two bona-fide top cruiserweight contenders on Sunday's card, but somehow it's taking second place to the sad joke of a "main event".

 

You know George Foreman fought five cans in one night, right?

 

But George Foreman was a prime top heavyweight at the time, he wasn't a phony.

I wouldn't be surprised if Jake Paul digs up Foreman's corpse or Muhammad Ali's for his next opponent, but who would want to watch such fights?

 

I don't like him but none of this is his fault. He is a smart man who has made a lot of money fighting people with some kind of name. For whatever reason, people pay for this garbage. Props to him and pity the boxing fan,

 

I'd love to see somebody like Bivol turn him inside out.

 

Boxing did this to itself.

 

Sure he did, Ali had exhibitions too. But those "fights" were never allowed to be primetime, they were just side enjoyments here and there with the serious fights always being on the headlines.

Now, sadly, those joke events are taken more seriously than the actual progressive fights.
