Glad I didn't end up catching this. Sounds like it was pretty bad. Actually it sounds exactly how I imagined it. An old, washed up Paulie, not able to back up his loud mouth BS, and another dude, equally as bad who shoudn't really have a skillset to compete with a boxer(or the boxer), ends up getting the W because the boxer typically ends up embarrassing himself whenever it counts.
Wait, that sounds like Khan.

Paulie embarrassed himself talked a good game but was shot and scared out there. He a sucker for life and just can't stop catching L's in life. This is worse then AB taking his bytch, worse then him wearing those dreadlocks and them getting tangled up and whip lashing himself in the face and his corner trying to cut them off mid round, worse them McGregor bringing him in training camp just to set him up and embarrass him for talking shyt. Like I said too many L's to count. He's a loud mouth nothing more

You are one of those guys who called MMA "2 fat gays hugging" for 10 years until finally admitting different sports just require different skills, not more/less skill.
Bareknuckle has the potential to be bigger and more interesting than "our" boxing for the simple reason that the tactics are more pertinent to a real fistfight.
Much of what's mistaken for "skill" in modern boxing is really just a guy avoiding engagement and striking poses because his research showed his opponent possesses inferior cardio. I don't know how much skill is involved in that. People watch that and think "Well this is dumb, this would never work in a real fight".
Trying to explain it away with skill, skill, skill is wasted breath because ultimately... They're right. They have a point.
We've grown further and further from pure fistfighting & it's created a vacant niche. Maybe our rules & officiating should adapt & bridge the gap.
I remember when Floyd boxed Zab is basically baloons.
But bare knuckle boxing is not as fun since you can't throw as many punches.
Bare knuckle mite be more slightly better with popularity than kick boxing.

Paulie could have won this, but didn't let his hands go enough....
The sport is terrible though. It consists of former old and burned out fighters from MMA and the fighting looks sloppy... Not sure it will survive for long. No way it makes believers out of anyone.
