Comments Thread For: Brat Summer: Jake Paul is, in every sense of the word, a headline act

[BoxingUpdates]

As hard as it is to admit, it is true: Jake Paul is getting better. That is to say, he is looking better, better than before, and seeing him in a boxing ring is no longer either as unusual or awkward as it once was

Worsell needs an editor. Goes on far too long to make an easy to understand point.

I find it very easy to tune out the likes of Paul. It probably helps that my life doesn't revolve around a smartphone and social media.

From what I hear, Jake Paul has the following lined up:

1) Butterbean
2) Floyd Mayweather SENIOR
3) Tommy "Got Hit A lot" Hearns
4) Dennis Rodman or Patrick Beverly (that's still up in the air)
5) Doug (from the Liberty Mutual commercials).

Jake Paul is mustn't watch! And I do just that. I DONT WATCH!!!!

Looking better?

He just fought a middleweight who was last good in 2012. What the hell are you even talking about?

Unfortunately you know he’s getting a shot at one of the belts. Or they will create an interim belt for him. Money talks

No. You should be ashamed of yourself for this article.

Even 42 year old Badou Jack would ice Paul in 5 rounds. Opetaia or Zurdo would knock his head clean off his shoulders.

There's no way Paul gets into the ring with any of those guys. He knows he can't even beat Tommy Fury.

Paul is not to blame for his surge of popularity in the sport, so there’s no reason to dislike him. Many fans and their favorite boxers are the reasons why he’s reached this level of popularity. The “faces of boxing” have let the sport down by refusing to take the real fights and have milked their idiot fan bases into paying for shyt fights instead. Rather than not supporting trash fights, these groupie fan bases defended their favorite fighters ducking, mainly due to tribalism. So gradually , more people got turned off by boxing and that opened the door for Jake Paul to create these circus type events that brought in fans, who otherwise had no reason to have interest in the sport, because boxing wasn’t creating any major events. He’s done what many of your favorite fighters have failed to do which is make major events that captivated fans beyond the typical ones.

Paul puts on some good cards. Paul does great things for women's boxing. Paul is bringing eyes to the sport. All of that stuff is amazing and I will forever commend him for it.

He's still a terrible boxer who gasses after five rounds and has no business being ranked. For all the good that he does for the sport, he undoes a lot by simply participating.
