Anthony Oluwafemi Olaseni Joshua vs. Jake Joseph Paul - Judgement Day, Dec 19th - Discussion Thread.

Dude ran around the ring and touched the canvas as a reset tactic just to survive. Embarrassing fight.

 

He's a 5'11 natural light heavyweight novice and he just went 6 rounds and took some flush shots from a super heavyweight former two time unified champion. ****ING RESPECT!

 

Joshua was clearly holding back so much in that fight.

The fix was on but Paul is literally so embarrassingly bad that Joshua had to end it unless there would've been riots afterwards.

Paul couldn't even beat an average hard man off the street. Guys a complete chump and almost couldn't get up from falling himself.

 

Watch the fight in slow motion

 

Not even 1k replies. This thread was a bummer.

 

As a long time fan of Anthony Joshua I now admit that I was wrong.

 

Here is some real boxing

AJ physically looked the part but he fell into the trap Fury fell into, in not taking their opponent seriously enough. Jake surviving to round 6 was a moral victory for him.

 

Jake Paul should have kept his mouth closed when taking punches. That's how he got his jaw broken.

 

I always feel like I have to take a shower after watching a Jake Paul fight. Like something dirty needs to be washed off.

 

I know a lot of people find him annoying but he is ultimately a human being whose family obviously cares for him.

This fight should not have been sanctioned. Paul theoretically could have gotten seriously hurt. And then what? Not only would it be a tragedy for Paul's family but also for our sport. There would have been massive calls for boxing to be banned if something bad happened.

nothing wrong with a youtuber fighting a former world champion if the youtuber genuinely worked his way up the rankings. If Paul had beaten a legitimate top 30 heavyweight convincingly followed by a top 20 world ranked heavyweight convincingly, then you could make a very good case for him fighting a former past it world champ like AJ.

But when you have zero wins vs any top 30 ranked heavyweight, you shouldn't be sanctioned to fight a top 10-15 heavyweight who is a former world champ and a big puncher.

 

Overglorified sparring session, and yes, I am glad Jake is all right.

 

Don't talk rubbish. No more chance of being hurt than anyone else who gets punched in the face.

 

He did about as well as he could have, but he had no business being in the ring with AJ.

Skillwise he kept up for a while and was impressive, but size wise... looked like juiced up Light Heavy vs Heavyweight.

 

Nah. This is why i dont believe in God. Why he gonna allow my guy David Price to get his Ginger hair splattered across the ring for a damn near decade but hes gonna allow Jake Paul off with being rendered unconscious.

Like i werent even needing his death, just give him like a permanent limp in his right leg or a speech impediment or something.
