Jake Paul Phony Fights Discussion

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.

 

I voted no, but changed
I respect him as a businessman and respect his work ethic

He's a former Disney kid and youtuber and say what you like, he's been in the ring with some killers. Those mma guys where top guys and a couple of world champs in their own sport. Anderson silva was old, but he could box and the Diaz brothers can throw hands

He's obviously not a top boxer, but he is a boxer and he's doing well for himself. I do think the tyson fiasco was sold as a fight but really an exhibition.

He's made more of a mockery out of the mma guys than boxers and I know us hard-core fans don't like circus fights, but he's bringing attention to the sport and young fans may move on to the bigger and real fights

To change the subject slightly, this canelo and bud fight is going to be watched by a HUGE audience. It best not be a stinker, as it could bring about more interest and we may see more massive fights moving away from expensive ppv and towards streaming services

So in closing, I would say I respect Jake Paul. Good on the kid for doing what he's doing, but that tyson farce was shyte

 

That's why he won't fight anybody close to Bivol's level. It's a circus act.

 

It's far worse for an active top level boxer to have exhibitions than a social media boxer like Jake Paul. This is show biz, you either draw eyes or you don't. If an intriguing match up is being provided, quit complaining.

 

Casual boxing fans will always support the likes of Jake Paul, it's no wonder that they earn more than a fighter who is really fighting to be somewhere in the sport, but unfortunately that's the way it is in today's boxing, a sport that is falling apart...

 

He wants to be the same as usyk .

 

What`s so intriguing about this fight?

 

The idiot just told Piers Morgan that he could have beaten a prime Mike Tyson.

 

This one isn't too intriguing. Some of the washed up MMA ones were.

 

What about his fight vs Fury?

 

depends what version of Chavez we get.. he could easily out point Jake if he isn’t completely washed and comes in fit.

 

Julio Cesar will spend his check on prostitutes and cocaine.

 

Carl Froch should be next.

 

Jake Paul will beat Zurdo or Dorticos for the title , he is more talented than the two.

Discuss. Jake has done big things and he will win the title in my estimation when he gets his title shot
