Comments Thread For: Jake Paul: ?I know I can pick Anthony Joshua apart ? I?m about to win?

[jreckoning2]

As el*** said, I hope AJ didn't take a payoff to carry this guy. That would be the absolute worst scenario.

AJ just might knock Paul's head off his shoulders!

That's what every sucker who pays for this shiat show is hoping for.

I'm worried about that too. Joshua has the easiest chance to redeem himself by putting that dumbass to sleep. Or he can embarrass himself further. I'm going to watch just in case it is real.

There is one scenario where AJ loses. Paul moves and moves and keeps AJ away. And he somehow times AJ with a big shot. Because Jake actually has pretty heavy hands and AJ has no chin.

That is a one in a million shot. I honestly believe that AJ carries him to a wide UD and then they both have a drink afterwards laughing at the huge paychecks they just duped everyone for.

Heavy hands?

He couldn't knock out a 45 year old Anderson Silva who had already been knocked out 4 times in MMA and 1 time in boxing.
He couldn't knock out a 40 year old middleweight Julio Cesar Chavez Jr who had already been stopped twice.
He couldn't knock out Nate Diaz who had already been knocked out 5 times in MMA.
He probably could've knocked out 60 year old Tyson, but didn't.

Paul's KO victories:
AnEsonGib - Youtuber
Nate Robinson - retired basketball player with kidney failure
Ben Askren - retired undersized MMA grappler who had already been knocked out at welterweight
Tyron Woodley - retired undersized MMA grappler who had already been knocked out twice
Andre August - light heavyweight with one fight in the prior four years, had already been knocked out by a 3-3 fighter
Ryan Bourland - light heavyweight coming off a 2 year layoff who had already been knocked out
Mike Perry - MMA former lightweight that had already been knocked out in his only boxing match at 168 9 years prior

The only guy that was close to Jake's age and size that he fought was Tommy Fury, and Tommy whooped his ass.

Jake Paul is not a big puncher. He has never knocked out a credible boxer.

Jake Paul is not a big puncher. He has never knocked out a credible boxer.

He's put down 7 of his 13 opponents including Tommy Fury.

Fury didn't "whoop" him at all, the fight went the distance with Fury holding a lot of the fight, and then got knocked down by a jab in the final round.

JP has continued to fight better fighters since while Fury has not.

None of the fighters he faced were even close to average, let alone good. Tommy Fury is a horrible reality TV star cruiserweight nepo baby fighter. Anthony Joshua is a former 2X unified heavyweight world titlist.

To imply that Paul has even a prayer of clipping Joshua is outright delusional. The only way Paul wins this is if Joshua miraculously blows out his knee in the middle of the 1st round, like how Charles Martin got his belt.

It's free, bud. Now, tell me you won't watch it for free. I'm hoping to see Paul regret his decision to face Joshua in spades.

good thing bbc Josh isn't Tyson Fury

who slacked off training for that mma fighter

resulting in an embarassing performance

Exactly! And after Fury struggled with Ngannou, Joshua destroyed him in 2. As Paulie said, AJ takes boxing very seriously.

I didn't imply he is going to win this fight against AJ.

I'm responding to whether or not he can punch. Big KO puncher? No - but it looks to me that he gets the respect of his opponents. Even early on, one of the first things his first trainer BJ Flores would say is that he can punch; enough so that he thought he could turn pro. Subsequent trainers and opponents have said similar. He's put down half the guys who were trying to put him down.

This fight is interesting to see how far JP's training and approach to matchmaking will get him against AJ before it unravels, not that he will win. There are some bad background factors for AJ coming into this fight though. If AJ was fighting someone established, those factors would be more at the forefront.

Anyway, if JP is competent for a couple rounds, shows a chin, or anything redeemable to change minds then I think he can make a couple more "real" fights then retire.

If he can go rounds with AJ really trying to stop him, then I don't see why he wouldn't fight Ngannou.

I think Paul vs Ngannou would have legit intrigue. I think JP could stop him

He has never knocked out a good fighter.
He has failed to knock out multiple smaller, older guys that have already been knocked out multiple times.

That's really all there is to it.
