Jake Paul passes the same eye tests as Crawford, should we claim him P4P now too?

    I told you they were casuals, didn't I?

      I'm gonna got on a limb here and say he's number 1. I even think he could dehydrate enough to make 168 and mop the floor with Canelo. Generational talent he is!

        They are. The utter audacity and disrespect to say that Ben Askren is on the same level as fighters such as Gamboa, Postol, Indongo, Horn, Benavidez, Khan, Brook is one of that absolute most disgraceful and undignified casual fan statements I have ever heard, this stoops to an all time low now. He has no right to disrespect those world champion boxers like that. What a disgraceful thing to say.

          Otherwise you would be using resume as a criteria as well.
          You really don't understand how the eye test works, nobody on here seems to.

            Please enlighten us all as to how the eye test works. I can use a good laugh.

              Does the eye test only work when a hype job beats a faded former champ or bum? Does it only work for your favorite cherry picker?

                    When Jake Paul fights a guy coming off of a win against Manny Pacquiao in a boxing match, and then absolutely dominates him, then you can come back here and talk about how Jake Paul's opponents are like Crawfords.

                      The eye test means you actually pay attention to boxing. It means that your boxing knowledge isn't so limited that you are actually able to tell the difference between an A level fighter, a B level fighter, a C level fighter, a D level fighter.

                      Terrence Crawford has many dominating wins over solid B and B plus fighters. Not only that, none of these B or B+ fighters has ever been able to give him a close fight. Each of those B and B+ fighters would dominate hundreds of C fighters. Each of those C fighters would dominate hundreds more D fighters. Each of those D fighters would dominate E and F fighters.

                      Ben Askren and Nate Robinson don't even risk to the rank of an F level fighter. They're not boxers. They're nothing.

                      Only a complete casual like yourself looks at Nate Robinson and Viktor Postol and is fully incapable of seeing the difference in their skills.
