I agree but Jake Paul's team and Showtime are not stupid they wouldn't have picked Rahman if they didn't think Jake could beat him. They want Jake to win I wouldn't be surprised if something dodgy happens.
Get what you're saying but they don't have a crystal ball. Think they've made a big mistake personally but we'll see.
Rahman Jr has a bad habit of keeping his hands down. It’s so dumb. If he didn’t do that, he’d have won his last fight.
He's fighting a legitimate former undefeated prospect who had decent hype around him and is known in Vegas scene. Not to mention his father is a former world champ so he's been around the sports all of his life. This is a tough fight. I was hoping the Tommy Fury fight would happen because that was a guarantee KO but this guy has got balls. I don't know if he can pull this off, I've heard people say "Hasim is open for the right hand", but Hasim has been boxing for at least 20+ years compared to Jake's 3-4 years. He's also a much bigger man than Jake. If Jake somehow pulls this off that would be insane. This content is protected
Which is why Paul is weight draining him. Rahman scales over 220 pounds but has weighed around 250 pounds during his career. Paul has inserted a clause in the contract to ensure Rahman cannot out weigh him on fight night or rehydrate too much. Jake Paul has weighed 190-200. Twenty to fifty pounds of weight loss could cause issues. P.S. Love the whole "former undefeated" concept. Lot of words to say he has "lost" before. Unless it's not. Who knows what is happening backstage at these clown shows. Paul is a businessman and so is Junior. Neither got into this business for any reason other than money so I imagine it will be a well planned show where Hasim follows the script, looks good, then loses and its significantly more wealthy than if he won.
While it's true that a motivated Jake "Sugar Hands" Paul would be the greatest ever at anything he attempted and walks this earth like a God, no I'm not threatened so much as I would say intrigued. Are the fights out right fixed? Is it a "Soft" fix through careful opponent selection and rehydration clauses? Is Jake Paul on PED's this time? Basically the same checklist most people have when they watch Canelo.
Common sense? lol, the guy said Rahman is going to throw the fight but "look good" in the process. Just like Woodley and Askren did huh? You threatened that a Disney Star Kid who's been boxing for a couple years might knock out a legitimate former undefeated HW prospects with an impressive family boxing pedigree?
1. Jake agreed to drug testing against Tommy the ***** boy Fury so let's cross out the PED accusations. 2. The guy is fighting someone twice his size but could still comfortably make cruiser, so let's cross out those ex uses. 3. Fixed? Lol, you know how illegal that would be right? If it's "fixed" bet your house on JP. You'll be rich.
