Cool mini character piece on a guy that deserves a character piece, but a Jake Paul related article never would have taken center stage on boxingscene prior to the recent changes.

When they write that there's a coming out party with Jake Paul, then Jake knows he's made it in the big time, at least financially and profile wise.

It would be good if a great boxer like Crawford had more attention in the main******, but ah, the way of marketing and social media nowadays.

- I noticed that this latest Jake Paul event is getting very little publicity compared to his prior events.
- Maybe the novelty is starting to wear off???
- I do give him credit for getting the undercard fighters exposure and getting them paid.
- Otherwise, I don't even watch the highlights for free on YouTube the next day.

Good read, just wish Ryan actually had a bit more talent . Seen him on You Tube his chances are slim to say the least. Just sad a "Pro" boxer with his record is about to get embarrassed by a You Tuber . Jake really about to become a top 100 boxer in the world at Crusierweight , I know the division is weak but still not a good look for boxing.

I think this might be by design. Even by Jake Paul. I think he wants to amass more wins, even low profile ones without as much pressure to build up his career as he indicates that he's taking boxing seriously. He probably figures, he rather let other bigger name fighters take over his events while he continues facing lowkey opposition to gain experience. Don't for a minute think his mega exposure bouts are over. The time will come again and he'll convince a Conor McGreggor or who knows who, maybe Canelo, to get in the ring with him again for a crazy paycheck.
