    I'd favor Ngannou in an honest fight with no funny business behind the scenes

    Honestly if there were clauses to go easy on Jake or not throw punches, would it not open both up for felony charges and so much litigation?

    Would still take him over Paul, easily.

    He’s 8 on BoxRec, is CW very weak?

    He fought relatively recently and didn't look too awful. He would beat the hell out of Jake Paul.

    His best recent win was over a guy ranked 66th

    Shocked he’s at 8

    Paul would never but if he did, I’d give him serious credit but he will not

    Paying Ben Askrens 500k hospital bill without boasting loudly about it (even if he did, he still paid it) has knocked him up a few notches in my estimation.

    He was boasting loudly about it.

    Berlanga vs. Jake Paul. Who you got?

    No poll on purpose.

    Give me Trashlanga. He’s higher up in the food chain of can crushers imo

    He's not used to fighting 200 pounders though and is actually worse at winning rounds. He has arguably lost 17 of the last 18 rounds he's fought and also hit the deck four times. If this were a six rounder, I'd definitely favor Paul.

    Neither is Jake Paul lol

    That really just means he fought better opponents the last two fights. We’re not gonna assume Jake would do any better when he’s afraid to even step in with world class guys anywhere near their prime.

    Berlanga is really not that good but neither is Jake Paul. Berlanga at least has decent conditioning, has been training in this sport his whole life, and puts his punches together pretty well. The shell of Chavez Jr was landing every time he let his hands go against Paul in the latter half of the fight and if that were Berlanga landing those shots then Paul would be in a hospital right now.
