JP got ****** in sparring!

Who gives a ****? Whyte knocked down Fury in sparring and Zurdo beat up Bivol in sparring but we all know how those fights turned out. Tommy couldn't even KO that 5'7 MMA fighter he fought. -

He is
As much as people wanna see Tommy fail, he has a well schooled jab and good feet. Even other trainers have pointed it out like Shane McGuigan, who doesn’t have any involvement with him but was in the gym with it. Tommy isn’t a newcomer, you can see on YouTube him fighting in a junior amateur final when he was about 15. People act like he’s been boxing 2 years. He was boxing a little kid and sparring heavyweights as a teenager when Jake Paul was watching cartoons. He certainly knows his way around the ring.
He hasn’t had any good opposition but a lot dont in their early fights. Brook had even worse opposition in the first half a dozen fights, he turned out ok. Boots Ennis fought a guy 3-18 in his 14th pro fight. So I think he gets unfairly criticised for his level of opposition when others don’t get to the same criticism.
I’m not saying Tommy is going to be some world beater , but I think he has more than enough fundamentals and a good enough jab to bust up Jake Paul

Yep. People say that Tommy couldn't KO X fighter or struggled against Y fighter but when you watch both, you can see clean skill margin between them. Tommy is superior boxer and got trained by Gypsies.

If that fight won't be fixed, Tommy should box his ears off. Maybe late TKO.Comment

how old is the clip, is it really this recent, its more dumb that he dont have head gear on, shows the amateur operation his team is running to be sparring say within the month before the fight and no headgear to reduce cuts.
also looks like he needs another hair transplantComment
