Is there really nothing else Paul can do with his life? What a circus.

I'd be asking that question more of the people who actually take the time to sit and watch these repeated shitshows. It's utter nonsense.

inevitable outcome albeit longer than expected

lad has made his money but really needs to do something else now or he will start to bring the sport into disrepute(if not already)

first serious boxer he faces and he eventually felt aj's power and that was that

just running around the ring wont get you the views you want

Fcuk me he lasted 6 rounds

Due to better than expected boxing ability on his part or a pre agreed scenario where AJ wouldn't do anything with any kind of power on it for a few rounds?

I wonder..

Hard to fight someone who doesn't want to fight. All I see it running away and then falling over when cornered.

I just watched the highlights and that is what it was. The full fight must have been boring.

Paul was done in at the end. Doesn't even have the cardio fitness for 8 rounds.

Hopefully it's the end of Jake Paul the boxer but with millions of mugs paying to watch it....

The Racist thinks he’s back in the big time,can’t wait for his arse to hit that canvas again

Half of which Jake was running around the ring and falling over to time waste.

Just watched it and the for me it looked like AJ was under instructions not to do anything for 4 rounds. He dint jab, any big punch he did throw missed by a foot and he just went through the motions. Then round five he actually tried and knocked him down over and over and then knocked him out.

Think he knew if he bided his time Paul would start to blow and he’d get his chance. don’t think AJ did much wrong, smashed him by round 6 as about expected.

I've read the last few pages of this thread.
That's the be all and end all of my interest in this joke of a so called boxing match.
The money they both earned i understand them doing it.
I don't understand why anyone would pay to watch it.
Then again at 57 years old it's a different world we live in than what I was brought up in.
Bank balances = win
Boxing = loser's

I think AJ did what he had agreed to do for the first 4 rounds.

Ring was massive, always going to struggle in that size

 

[SWPISHOME]

Boxing is finished and has been for some time.

 

[DenisLawBackHeel74]

I think if AJ took that seriously…it’s a round one KO.

Only pity was he only broke his jaw.

Yeah I thought that. Was it a lot bigger than a standard ring? Gave Paul the space to just run away for 4 rounds.

Don't pretend it was any better in your day, Muhammad Ali vs. Antonio Inoki 1976 was the biggest farce I have seen, worse than Foreman fighting 5 men in one night in 1975.

This freak show stuff is nothing new, they just made less money doing it 50 years ago.
