So he had around 100 amateur fights, great how many did he win? What level did he compete? I keep hearing this what level did he compete at? The fact nobody knows tells me all I need to know.
I also have no problem with the hydration clause firstly its pretty standard and secondly unless I have it right wrong he's contracted to come in at 200lbs and capped at 215 but allowed to actually be whatever in the ring on fight night. What is the issue? Jake Paul is forcing some slob to get into shape for once?
He's doing him a favour if you ask me. He might not gas out after a mere 2 rounds at a snails pace carrying way too much weight than his frame allows.
The guys a natural CW anyway regardless what he has weighed in at, he is not a natural HW or even a particularly big CW.
Just excuses.
You have 100 amateur fights, 12/13 as a pro and fighting a guy who has been training for what 3 yrs and has seriously being generous 2 actual fights. We can't even count the others because they offered absolutely zero resistance at all. I don't want to hear excuses. If you can't absolutely toy with a guy like that regardless of his natural talent its embarrassing.
If Jake splatters him its because Rahman Jr just has no real talent or ability which is likely the case - All the indicators are there won nothing in the amateurs at any level despite a lengthy career, stopped by a bar room brawler, dropping rounds vs competition with 3-20-5 or whatever records.
Its not a blackeye for boxing, its a blackeye for him and a message he needs to go find something he is actually good at.
