Boxing

I mean what can you do when your opponent is running and rugby tackling you at every opportunity lol

How can this even be continued? Jake Paul is constantly falling over trying to clinch

AJ should be closing space better than this. I’m seeing Paul evade punches in the corner

Jake ran and fell over at the slightest sign of adversity. That wasn’t something to be proud of it was really really really bad.

Think that’s an incredible outcome for Paul. Gets rid of some ring rust for AJ, I suppose.

Lol glad I already have a Netflix subscription cos that was not worth paying for.

Any suggestion that AJ might have provided a bit of a cagey approach for ‘reasons?’

I’m not much of an aficionado for the sport, but the difference in class was bluntly apparent. JP having is bootlaces tied together the whole fight.

People are desperate to be outraged at every Jake Paul fight. Let it go.

Well that was embarrassing for all involved.

The death of boxing

Oh dear

Absolutely, JP being paid to take the dive against AJ to help build him back up ahead of a potential Fury bout is the final nail :pires2:

Lmaooooo just woken up to see the bloody face of Jake Paul first thing on insta. LETS GO AJJJJ you have a new fan

Sounds like the fight wasn’t all that? The women’s one before it bored me to sleep.

It was a non spectacle. The clearest mismatch you’ll ever likely see.

Paul basically spent most of the fight trying to stay away from Joshua, and was getting hurt every time he was hit. The only reason it went past the first round is because Jake Paul was refusing to engage for the first four rounds. The moment he did, he got his ass kicked.

So this match was a farce as expected?

Vindication.

What a silly thing and what a silly sport boxing has become.

A literal circus

I mean I obviously agree because I hate the influencer market too but exhibitions have been a thing since the early 20th century.

Can’t even tell you how many top ACTIVE fighters took part in them. The only difference now is that social media has made these spectacles more of a farce and way more prevalent than they’ve ever been.

But the market is there. What fighter in boxing history is turning down a $100m payday for a fight against someone who has no chance of even hurting them let alone beating them? I can think of any

I think the problematic part is that this was a sanctioned, professional fight, and not an exhibition (although that’s what it was in reality).

One of those fighters was severely underqualified to be in that ring, and was lucky to get away with just his jaw being broken in two places.
