I think that you all are missing the point with Jake Paul

The point is: Any yahoo that applies himself to proper training can achieve something in the ring....... but that's about it.
Until he actually fights a pro boxer with as much training as he has, then it's still just a dog & pony show.

Everyone should just enjoy a competitive fight I thought that was the reason to watch boxing ?

That's the point I am trying to make. No one wants to see they so called top guys fight bums. We want to see a competitive fight. Canelo can fight a one armed man and folks will try to convince themselves that is will be a good fight.

The point is he is not someone I would want my son to look up to would you?

He's not a pro boxer so what qualities does he have that we should look up to. That he knows how to take advantage of people and make money? Does that mean we should all be fans of Mr. Ponzi, Mr. Madoff because they too knew how to make money?
