Comments Thread For: Does Jake Paul deserve more credit than he's being given?

[SUBZER0ED]

Should he be taken seriously as a professional boxer ? In my opinion , no , not until and unless he's fighting against professional boxers. I don't think that he has the ability to compete against legitimate professional boxers. He's a novelty act. I can't knock the hustle though. He is helping some legitimate fighters with their careers , he pays people fairly , and fixes up boxing gyms for kids in Puerto Rico. I can't knock him as a person either. I am not familiar with his social media career at all. I think that the guy is a net positive for boxing , he brings eyeballs and publicity that boxing otherwise wouldn't get , but he's not a legit professional boxer, not by a long shot.

Jake Paul has found a way to make a lot of money by making fights that are uncannily called "boxing". Yet these fights don't mean shit in the real boxing world.

Jake Paul didn't headline PPVs out the gate.

But as the guy above pointed out KSI is in the exact same spot in fact he started these clown shows being PPV with Logan Paul.

And actually the whole "X series" rubbish spawned due to him on DAZN, so you could even argue his "Black privilege" got him that now couldn't you!?

If you're going to making arguments based on perceived privileges but that wouldn't fit the narrative would it.

And my "Ethnicity" is British, not that it holds any bearing on the point(s) being made.

But of course for you emotionally and socially inept types who're obsessed with race it's THE most important thing.

P.S. I also note how you ignored my point about people doing this continually and irrespective of their race and chosen career.

Reading is fundamental. I never said Paul headlined right out of the gate.

I could get deep Boro, on how you described your ethnicity as only British (I didn't ask your nationality).....

...but I'm going to conclude my debate with you

And I'd really like to get deep...but I'll be wasting my time.

he fights old men who usually arent boxers and usually are shot to pieces in their own sport and coming off of 4 to 5 losses. oh yeah they are always 20 to 30 pounds smaller than him on top of it. full credit for that!

That was the implication or you wouldn't of being implying he's been given some kind of "White" privilege or you have to concede KSI has been given that same privilege based on being Black!?

Because it we're following your apparent "logic" he (Paul) only got there based on race, so to be morally consistent the same also HAS TO apply to KSI, otherwise you're making judgements based on skin color the one thing your type (lefties) love to cry about

Feel free to "get deep" you're the one conflating ethnicity and race, son.

Ethnicity and race aren't some interchangeable widgets despite what you've been taught in your dumb CRT/Female/African studies classes.

Don't waste your keystrokes on that racist foo. He's badly trolling or just plane dumb.

Aren't we a bit touchy today?

If you're going to comment on something I've said at least quote me.

And no one is being touche, Lefty0616 is peddling the usual racial BS and as implied him conflating the two is quite frankly embarrassing.

And my "race" was wholly irrelevant to the point I was making just like Pauls is to his perceived "privileges" but him and his ilk are stuck on race at all times.
