    For 13* fights, his resume is exceptional... That doesn't change that his best wins (Takam and Jennings) are gatekeeper level fighters and his impressive display against Dubois was against a prospect who doesn't even have gatekeeper level wins himself.

    Joyce hasn't got all that much time to step it up, I suspect he's slightly better than his resume shows but I also think he's being hyped way too hard, especially on here.

    Woodley's thing was always to wait way outside his opponents range until they overcommitted on an attack and he countered with a big overhand right. That or he'd fake an overhand right for a takedown, or fake a takedown to set up an overhand right. That was always his game plan, it never changed.

    If the Usyk vs Joyce match went through, what would've been your prediction?

    Does it make me a bad person if I'd love to see Anthony Joshua or Deontay Wilder put Jake Paul in the hospital?

    No I'm not. The fact is Jake ''Money'' Paul could've earned another king's ransom fighting another fellow Youtuber, another basketballer, another shot wrestler who can't punch their way through cobwebs but he chose a dangerous guy who actually posed a serious threat of not only beating him but putting him to sleep and the vast majority of rank novice boxers don't do that. They fight zero threat bums and take incremental steps up in competition at that stage of their career. They get thrown in against opponents who stand next to no chance of beating them whereas Jake ''Money'' Paul chose someone who posed a genuine threat and we saw that in the fight last night against an opponent who has a lifetime of experience competing in combat sports and much of it at the elite level against the best the world has to offer and Jake ''Money'' Paul deserves credit for that.

    Like I said, we'd never seen him get hit on the chin in a real fight by someone who can actually fight and punch. We'd never seen him even have to go five minutes before. We'd never seen him go into the trenches or have to overcome adversity before. We'd never seen him in a real fight against a real fighter before and all of that came into play last night just like I predicted it would. These are all boxes Woodley had ticked long ago and passed with flying colours.

    And yes he is a novice. A rank novice. Someone who has never been involved in a real fight against a real fighter before is a novice.

    Paul was more gassed than Woodley, he was also working harder too. Woodley wasn't breathing heavily like Jake. Jake definitely was more gassed than usual. Woodley was better conditioned no doubt about it but was green at boxing.

    Watch the fight before you lecture me on how to score it. By the way I'm highly offended that you think my opinion is irrelevant.

    Woodley was tired though.....he kept shaking out his arms. Thats the way he fights though. Look at all his mma fights.

    Comfortable UD most likely - Usyk's far too quick and too good a ring IQ for where I think Joyce is.

    Hard to say at this point. It depends on how much Jake ''Money'' Paul learned from last night.

    I knew Woodley was gonna lose. His striking in ufc was so overrated and it’s looked worse in his last handful of fights. Anyone his size and who’s been boxing as long as Paul has would beat him.

    Jake, despite beating Woodley via a split decision, became a meme after getting rocked by Tyron Woodley, in which only the ropes held him up.
