Jake Paul Phony Fights Discussion

Netflix is a cancer in the world of entertainment; they've ruined countless classic TV shows that they rebought and rehashed as "Netflix Originals" - with seemingly no context of what the word original means, and they've created some of the worst films of the 2020s with the highest budgets. The Tyson vs. Paul mess proved they have no standards for quality in sport, either.

Yes, they went for the Canelo and Crawford fight, which is commendable, but other than that, they're turning boxing into a circus event. Until somebody ends up in a wheelchair, they will continue with these joke crossover fights. Unluckily for Paul, it could be the Joshua fight that gives him a horrible brain injury and puts an end to these farcical ideas once and for all.

 

Can't argue much with this

 

If I was Jake Paul I wouldn't stand in front of full force Joshua for one 2 minute round... I don't think he takes punches as well as ngannou. And I don't think he offers ANY offense to deter joshua one bit

 

I will be impressed if you can think of any at all.
Ernest hemingway challenging the heavyweight champion comes to mind, but then again he was laughed off...

 

I dunno, Hrgovic vs De Mori is a bigger mismatch in my opinion. I honestly believe i would beat Mark De Mori and thats not even me making a joke.

 

Yep. AJ has always been at his most dangerous when he's pissed off. That's why I've always said, if I was a boxer facing AJ, I would kiss his ass and make him feel like we're friends... Ruiz acted like a fan and AJ was way too relaxed going into that fight. Whereas the likes of Whyte, and Pulev really got under his skin... I remember AJ giving Pulev a death stare the moment he got into the ring.

 

A handy nightclub bouncer, with a decent dig on him would be the favourite against De Mori.

 

I believe Jake is insinuating Tommy Fury turned down the fight, even with a 15 million offer. Dumb move on Tommy's part if true

Tommy won’t be offered anything more for the rest for his life. Pretty even fight. Lad should have taken the money.

 

Daddy,s little boy . Dubois ot what ?

Tommy fury would never be offered 15M i guess .

 

He was pissed off in his last fight.

 

He’s not a top 80 fighter at any weight. There are more than 80 fighters at every weight 160lbs and up who would beat Jake Paul. AJ is still a top 15 heavyweight.

 

That's the thing. Boxing is filled with grotesque mismatches as fighters pad their records. It's perfectly feasible that Jake Paul is better than than some of the cabbies Wilder beat on his way up. The only difference is that this is a main event, but I don't think it's any more dangerous than the record-padding fights that go on in the background all the time.

 

Jake Paul is probably better than 5-10 of AJ's early opponents coming up through the ranks.
