The sadder part about all of this is when you go back and look at all of Jake Paul’s previous fights there is only one semi real boxing fight he was in and that was the one with Tommy Fury and even that fight was a sham. All his fights were against UFC fighters who were fighting a pure boxing match which meant they could not use their full mixed martial arts abilities. Or he fought retired boxers who havent been in the ring for decades. So yeah this ass whooping was a long time coming.

His ass is gonna remember the punch that cracked his shit. Fully expecting his next opponent to be someone like Manny Pacquiao with headgear rule.

This whole Jake Paul being a boxer thing is an example of mediocrity at its finest.
On the bright side very few people could punch him in the face harder. I feel like AJ did this for all of us. And 94 million dollars

Everything about this is so Goddamned stupid.

Yeah Jake has zero business fighting a former two time world champ who knocked down Francis Ngannou multiple times. As his first non-exhibition fight is insane and totally undeserved.

They really think this country is bending over backwards to hand things to black people. Because if there’s anything the history of this country has shown us, it’s the exact opposite.
illegal to learn how to read and write…illegal to attend school and college…illegal to go to white businesses or drink out of white water fountains…illegal to vote…I can go on and on
as if businesses that are all about making money would all go hire unqualified and incompetent people just because they’re black…
like they’re just gonna have some unqualified black person flying a damn plane
make it make sense
but they’ll hire any mediocre white person because “they know someone” or their daddy pulled some strings

“an even split of a $184 million total purse, meaning $92 million each”
Yeah I bet Paul really learned his lesson

This is a reach, the entire premise is flawed.
This is what I hate about these pop culture crossovers into a world that’s semi-niche like boxing. People who don’t follow the sport at all love to inject their own worldview on things they know very little about. I.E: “Paul’s fights are rigged”.
I’ve got no love for Jake so I’m not trying to defend his character or anything, but anyone paying attention the buildup to this fight, or knows anything about AJ could tell Jake knew he had almost no chance at winning this fight. He was looking for a moral victory in surviving a few rounds with a former heavyweight champion knockout artist. Seems like he fulfilled that.

He never tried to stand toe to toe. His entire strategy was evade and hope AJ gassed or couldn’t find a finish. Also this was a fantastic opportunity for AJ who has struggled to garner fans outside of England, and an easy tune up fight to build up to championship challenge after getting whooped by Dubois.
This whole is tweet is clout chasing and banking on people’s hate for the Pauls making them ignore the reality of the situation. Not to mention the race baiting.
Ta-Nehisi Coates said it years ago about the Presidency, but it can be applied to just about everything else.

You are overanalyzing these shit fights. Not a single sane person ever thought Jake Paul could fight an actual professional boxer including Pauls themselves.
It was just an overblown content machine where he gradually moved from fellow YouTubers to trained fighters while making big Saudi bucks and cashing on big names

This is the core of the Good Ol’ Boy network that functions in most of America.
White guys favor other White Guys that they know or are recommended to them by yet more White Guys. The recommended ones are almost never ever ever as good as actually qualified candidates, but Good Ol’ Boys are rarely interested in that sort of thing.
They rage about DEI because they know that sort of biased decision-making exists because they’re the ones doing it, so they think/assume/believe that’s how everyone functions.
Again, it’s always a case of Projection.
Every accusation is a confession.

The reality is that Jake Paul is walking away from this with close to 100 million dollars. I know most on this sub would happily take a right hook if it pays the kind of money that take care of your great grandchildrens kids.
Jake Paul is actually a genius. Literally nobody likes him. He’s effectively monetised being disliked as people will literally pay in the hopes of seeing him knocked out.
Anthony Joshua has also done well from this. Easy fight, no damage taken and he’s 100 million dollars up.

That’s why the knockout was so beautiful…anything less than a KO and he would’ve been running his mouth that he hung with a top 5 HW…the only thing I would change is I wish AJ would’ve worked the body more and battered him a lot more, he was head hunting just to make a show of the fight. I wish it was a thorough ass beating, that would’ve been so satisfying.

He clearly didn’t think he could go toe to toe with him and that’s why it took place in a ring the size of a swimming pool and he was just hoping he could run around for eight rounds and say he went the distance with Joshua. He started to tire out and then it was only a matter of time.

I don’t think this has anything to do with DEI and I don’t think anyone thought Jake Paul had a snowballs chance in hell of winning this fight, including Jake Paul himself.
It’s a clownshow fight, just like every single other fight Jake Paul has ever been in. In fairness to the prick, he’s probably a better boxer than like 80% of reddit, but it’s clear as the sun in the fucking sky that he can’t hold a candle to an actual professional.
None of that actually matters though, because win or lose for some ungodly reason this clownshow makes millions of fucking dollars so it happens and it’s going to keep happening. Even this fight was fake as fuck for lasting 6 rounds, obviously fixed in some form or fashion.
I just take the outlook that at least rhe actual pros can make a bit of cash off this fool while he’s doing it.

It also really shows how much of his loser fan base lost money on that fight. Every single clip I’ve seen of the fight there’s like 2-3 comments of people just saying “this fight sucks it was so rigged”, like no, one of the current greatest boxers outclassed a line-ripping white clout gremlin
