    I was tempted to include a Anthony Joshua by murder option, but hesitated because that's a little too classless and grim. After all, it is a distinct possibility. This by all rights on paper is a potentially catastrophic mismatch and shouldn't have been sanctioned, but hey... Paul wants to be a boxer, well finally this is his sink or swim baptism by fire. He deserves to be viciously KO'd after that humiliation ritual he put poor Iron Mike through, although granted, Tyson knew he was compromised and shouldn't have gone through with it. Supposedly this is the real deal, with three minute rounds, and the only stipulation being, Joshua can't weigh more than 245 pounds, which is fine, since he rarely exceeds that anyway. So assuming everything is on the up and up, and this farce, isn't officially a farce. How many rounds can this cringey loudmouth fraud actually make it with Femi the dosser bodybuilder? We're counting on you AJ, to obliterate this fraudulent YouTube assclown, showing him you don't cosplay boxing! Give him the no respect Ngannou treatment! Restoring the dignity to, and protecting legacy and reputation of this great sport! It's resting on your shoulders! No pressure!:lol:

    It's in Miami, I'm almost tempted to make the short trip. I've always wanted to go to a public execution.:sisi1

    Something isn't right here. I'm tempted to say it's fixed as that's the only way I can justify it happening.

    This is more like an exhibition - not a real fight

    I think AJ will carry the guy and win by boring UD. Sadly.

    AJ should spark him in two rounds. If he doesn't then it is 100% scripted behind multiple NDA's to go to a UD in my opinion.

    How much better has Paul really gotten fighting old men after losing to Tommy Fury of all people?

    I'm not a huge AJ fan, but if Paul wins, that would be an absolute disaster for the sport; it'd be up there with Ngannou nearly beating Fury over 10 rounds. People already think the sport is a joke because of these fights, so if Paul wins, that would be the nail in the coffin. It'd be the only thing casuals bring up for the next decade.

    I've gone for the draw option. Because nothing makes sense in this world anymore.

    100% this.
    Not only lost to Tommy Fury but lost rounds to Nate Diaz, Chavez Jnr and a very old Anderson Silva. Jake couldn't stop those guys either so he could literally have a free shot on AJ's chin and it wouldn't do a damn thing he's not outboxing him either LOL.
    I seriously reckon if it makes it out of the first round it's a fix. The first serious jab AJ throws will split Paul's guard no matter how tight he has it.

    When reality sets in for Jake Paul when the bell rings and he has a giant like AJ coming at him.

    8 three minute rounds. Will Jake make it through until the end?

    YES! Jake Paul will SHOCK THE WORLD on 19 December. SHOCK it, I say.
    8 round UD for Paul; if Howard Foster is the ref, he may count AJ out quickly.

    Hopefully we'll see Pat Brown on this card - he says he enjoys fighting in the USA and is promoted by Hearn.
    Howard Foster only does early stoppages that favor British fighters (see Warrington-Lara, which he allowed to continue despite Warrington being beaten nearly to death).

    Paul will need a crooked American referee like Cole or Weeks for an early stoppage over Joshua.

    I don't think this is gonna be scripted. AJ's ego is too big for that, and also Jake loses no stock if he gets destroyed in round 1 (which will happen if this is a real fight.) Literally nobody expects him to do well, he gets a ton of money and people will start respecting him for fighting a real boxer thats way bigger than him.

    I won't believe this fight actually happens until both are in the ring on fight night. I just am having a hard time believing Jake "I'm extremely careful stacking the deck" Paul is going to go from small old and washed to Anthony Joshua, a legit top 5 heavyweight currently.

    If it does, I don't think AJs ego is going to let him give any respect to Paul by carrying him. I think he sends Paul to the hospital brutally and quickly
