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

Jake Paul can and almost certainly will last at least 5 rounds against a washed, inactive AJ who got physically and mentally destroyed in his last fight.

 

There’s a reason Paul picked AJ out of any other heavyweight in the world and it’s because he knows he’s mentally washed with a fragile chin and low confidence in his abilities, even if he can KO Jake Paul in one shot he won’t have the confidence to do it once Jake gets in his head.

 

Wow, people are debating this match as if it will be a real fight. Incredible.

 

As long as this is IS a genuine bout, no matter how many tabs I drop, and which stratosphere and dimension I happen to be in on fight night. I can't for the life of me honestly even see a way for Paul to SURVIVE 8 rounds... ON his toes running away, never mind winning...I just can't.

AJ probably doesn't even need to actually 'box' here. All he needs to do is walk him down and unload and it should be game over very, very quickly.


Paul will realise just how much he is out of his depth, and what real heavyweight power is all about here after taking the first thudding straight right hand to his chest. Just like Otto Wallin did when he fought AJ. The look on Otto's face and his immediate body language momentarily screamed ' WTF am I doing here', and at least Otto was a bonafide professional heavyweight, Paul is not.


I want to see Paul KO'd and truly humbled like most others, here. It's time that he learned the meaning of the saying ' **** around and find out'


I of course don't wish him any serious harm, I just want him to go away...

 

You underestimate just how badly AJ’s psyche, chin and confidence was destroyed against Dubois. He’s shot beyond shot.

 

I know AJ suffers with confidence and self belief issues. But it would have to be pretty damned catastrophic to lose against Paul. AJ at the worst, should beat him on basic instinct, reaction, and muscle memory alone. And when I say ' beat' I mean a decisive stoppage.

And If he was really at this stage of deterioraton then I'm pretty sure his trainer and team would know about it one way or another, and that would lead it to be common knowledge amongst the 'in the know' boxing fraternity.

Anyway, we're not even talking about a competent heavyweight here in Paul. He's at very best a lower domestic level chancer..


In fact I'd like to feed him to Chisora just for the lol's.

Looks like he's fighting a MW. Jake was actually supposed to fight at LHW in his boxing career, before he got on the good stuff which pumped him up unnaturally to around 200 lbs.

 

Why’d you think he’s been training with Usyk? He has zero belief in himself and doesn’t even think he can box at world level any more. I kind of feel sorry for him honestly it’s a severe fall from grace. Yes he most likely will beat Paul but I’m just saying Paul will do A LOT better than people think, at least 5 rounds IMO

 

I find it funny how people are saying Joshua is washed. He was beaten by DD but still had his moments. Arguably had DD ready to go before walking into a huge shot.
Faded from his best maybe but I think he's still got some big fights against proper fighters left in him. Fury, Wardley etc could all be interesting and if he's offered the big bucks he may wish to pass the torch to Ituma.

 

If it’s on the level Joshua kills him.

 

He wasn’t just beaten by Dubois, Dubois took his soul from him!

 

I honestly think him training with Usyk could very well be the tonic that he needs. If anything rubs off from Usyk to AJ it can only be a good thing for him.

AJ is clearly towards the end of his career now, but that doesn't mean he can't be the best of what he's actually physically got left. Usyk could very well help bring that out in him. He ( Usyk) is a master after all.

And IF this bout IS genuine, I think you're being very optimistic in giving Paul 5 rounds.



I'll have a virtual pint bet with you, that as long as the bout is a genuine one, (we'll ALL know from the first bell) that AJ gets him outta there anytime between the 1st and 3rd.





I have a lemonade top on my pint of best bitter, btw.

I just remembered that Paul went all the rounds against Chavez Jr. which is very bad.

 

Sure, we’ll see how it goes. I think AJ is a big scaredy cat now though. Paul’s full of confidence, even if delusional. He will try land some crazy overhands on AJ before he gets stopped against the ropes.
