[Boxing] Jake Paul vs iShowSpeed

[alani123]

Man these matches keep getting crazier. I wonder who watches these and who sings up for Netflix or whatever modern pay to view alternative for such a thing. Really the boys that used to watch Logan on YouTube might be eager to see his face smashed, but really his matches seem to be so oddly rigged every time. They just use every virslity trick in the book and yet Logan keeps getting away with some terrible matches that everyone regrets watching.

Will people get tired of it? Sooner or later. But then again, if there's money, so long as it's profitable, he'll keep finding new celebrities I guess.

Mayweather kicked off this whole exhibition match trend, and now it's everywhere. People watch, even though it’s not a real fight. Take Jake Paul’s last match... it was technically a pro fight, bu it felt like an exhibition. He clearly didn’t want to hurt the old legend.

And here we are, complaining about it, but still supporting it. Why? Because these matches bring in massive money. And here's the most interesting thing, Jake Paul’s last fight reportedly earned him around $40 million.... crazy, right? So, like it or not, we’ll be seeing more of these in the future. It’s a money-making machine...

"I'm here to make $40 million and knock out a legend," Paul said at a pre-fight press conference.

And probably that's what fans are paying, they wanted to see Jake Paul lost although if I'm not mistaken, he had one already against Tommy Fury. But I guess fans are not that satisfied, they wanted to see him sleeping in the canvass and being humbled.

Will people get tired of it? Sooner or later. But then again, if there's money, so long as it's profitable, he'll keep finding new celebrities I guess.

Perhaps, but if he finds opponent that are really entertaining and intriguing, then maybe fans are still going to buy on that hype. Maybe as hype fighter as Connor or even Floyd if they can settled for a catch weight, then maybe in the future we will see that another big fight from Jake Paul.

Trying to say the matches were rigged on scripted basically for entertainment and audience getting lost of it believing they are real matches?
Just trying to understand if that what you mean because It has been speculating that this past match between Paul and Tyson was a fixed match.

Could really be or not. I don't know. There has also been speculations of how much Tyson has made in the match that was to say the match must have been a manipulation on the insightments of of trickily enrich this big Whale boxer of Tyson's.
I myself is just lost of this whole scenarios about this match.

Honestly, before the fight between jake paul and mike tyson was played, I personally did not really consider the fight as a serious fight, because basically the fight was just an exhibition and also limited to entertainment, so it is very natural if it looks a lot of irregularities and also speculation about the fight, I think, promoter, tyson and jake paul only targeted that the fight as a means to make a lot of money by capitalising on tyson popularity as a boxing legend today, so there is really no point for us to give a lot of conspiracy theories about the fight because that it was just an entertainment fight, and even before and after the fight was played we could see throughout the year netflix shares increased significantly and reached almost 85%.

If it's a serious match, would you think Tyson would have thrown Jake Paul head off defenseless?

[TravelMug]

^^ Thanks for bringing this up, I just saw this video on Tiktok and by the looks of it, Tyson is holding and not wanting to damage Jake Paul.

But then again, that's what we call, "he can't pull the trigger anymore". That's the first thing that I heard from coach Freddy Roach before when Pacquaio fought Oscar dela Hoya. You can see in that fight that Oscar has some opening, but it seems that he is not punching.

And probably that is more on mental from this boxer, that they can't really punch like they should do it and something is holding them back.

When it comes on being rigged then its already understandable or will really be normal that there would really be those times or moments that we would really be having thoughts that it is really that indeed having those possible manipulation. For those who do make out some bets on exhibition fights then this is something that will really be having those possibilities yet its been an exhibition in the first place on which results or outcomes
could really be that totally that opposing on what you are really that anticipating or even on the entire sports bettors on which basing up on history of a certain fighter then you could be able to tell on who do have that advantage. Yes, Mike might be old but we've seen tons of chances on finishing up the fight via TKO but since this is scripted then you could be able to see those stopping in midway.

Now that Jake vs a Youtuber on which this isnt really that something you could tell that this guy is a fighter then it is really that common sense that you will be betting on Jake but if it turned out that it will be giving out some opposite result then its not really that shocking anymore.

Physically, he is gifted, and I think IShowSpeed can take on Jake Paul. If he does, it would be a good fight. Training for continuously six months might not be enough, but if it’s the professional coach, maybe they could somehow speed up the process. His name is Speed, so he might do it.

I hope this is not just some money-grabbing thing again.

[Mpamaegbu]

So after Jake Paul beat Mike Tyson a few days ago...

The sound of that "beat" made me grin but then that's what we will call it even though we now know it was scripted.

This isn't about the sports anymore but financial gains and popularity and social media followers.

Honestly, from my observation too; I think it's becoming ludicrous. Perhaps, I won't be taking anything outside the professional boxing bouts as something serious again. Even if it's a cross with UFC fighters, I'm bound to believe it's rigged; just like what we had with the two Francis Ngannou fights with Fury and AJ.

Now, YouTubers are beginning to believe they can allow themselves a few punches in the mouth, and here and there, and then go home after an hour or so with cool cash. It's going to be a trend very soon.

[Synchronice]

So after Jake Paul beat Mike Tyson a few days ago, a bunch of UFC wrestlers offer to beat him up fight him in the ring.

And then iShowSpeed the streamer comes in and says he could beat this guy in a boxing match if he professionally trained for 6 months.

Then Jake Paul's manager offers him $20 million for the fight. $10m of it if he beats Paul.

Do you guys think this match-up will happen?

Me, personally, I don't think so, but I've seen more outlandish things happen.

I understand all the hype that Jake Paul's every fight had, he was fighting those who were famous and popular a few years ago, they were also actually fighters and people were mostly paying to see their fights, not Jake Paul himself. So, I don't understand what's the point of Jake Paul vs iShowSpeed? Why the heck is this guy even popular?

Jake Paul is good at marketing, if he offers him $20 million dollars, then I'm sure Jake expects this fight to sell well. I don't watch Jake and iShowSpeed, so that's why I can't talk confidently about how good idea it is for them to fight but at the moment, I find it boring but I believe that this fight will happen if it's really profitable for Jake and it's not a funny conversation between them.

Well, most exhibition fights are for large payouts for each fighters involved. Only some are for pure charitable causes. I believe this can happen if there will be demand from boxing fans and the promoters are seeing good amount of money that they can generate out of this. Otherwise, they will need more "controversies" to make a noise and sell this exhibition fight to the boxing world.
Let us accept the fact that most exhibition fights are for money-grab event. If the amount involved is staggering, it means, the promoters as well as the fighters know how to sell their fight. The more issues they can produce, the better for their promotion.
With how things are going for Paul, high likely he has the upper hand on this fight with him having the favorite when the odds finally hit on the bookies list.

This is perfect money for both fighters influencers again. What matters with these two are the money and the audience that they can come up for this fight by bringing some hype. It's a good choice for Paul's manager to give that offer to ISS because he's currently very popular and has got a lot of followers.

The physique of ISS is already good so if he can train for 6 months, he might be fine but experience wise, he's not par with Paul.

There is nothing to expect from this match up because it's purely entertainment.

Who are you referring that is physically gifted? IShowSpeed? Lol, that dude is like 150 lbs-160 lbs, so how can he physically fight a huge dude that is weighing more than 200 lbs like Jake Paul, it's not going to be a fight, it's going to be murder in the ring.

Lol, it's obvious money grabbing mate, if this fight push through, or whoever Jake Paul wishes to fight next.

By now this whole exhibition matches should stop as we are already back seeing real boxing fights unlike this one which is prevalent during the pandemic because people wanted to be entertained out of their boredom in the lock down period.

what's gonna be more bizarre than seeing 58 years old iron mike, barely a shadow of himself coming up on the ring after 20 whole years.... With his confidence, training and preparations, 3 solid punches was enough to make him stagger in fear -- fear of being KO-ed! So this? Speed is just another goof. We all know what he's been doing and non of those are interesting at all.. like trying to play football? Man, he sucks at sport games frfr.

Physically, he is gifted, and I think IShowSpeed can take on Jake Paul.

So, if some YouTuber is made to compete with a professional boxer, you'd bet on the former to win? Speed does everything for money and content just like me beast does... There's a possibility this is just another fame-making match.
Edit:

I wonder who watches these and who sings up for Netflix or whatever modern pay to view alternative for such a thing.

millions of streams that can farm millions, if not billions of dollars in a few weeks.

You'll never understand who will watch these when you're not on the trend for these influencers. The teens would like to watch these matches, they're up for it and will definitely pay any money for the streaming and those that are able will go to the venue and will pay those tickets just to see them fight live.

[crwth]

Well, it's definitely part of it and maybe there are a lot more things happening behind the scenes with this.

Of course there are a lot of things to consider when deciding whether someone is "physically gifted." What I mean is with his ability to run, and I see that some of his physical attributes in terms of backflipping and stuff look easy on him. You do know that he tried to compete with Noah Lyles, an olympian, and almost gotten him beat. He has no training, and he is still fast. That's why I called him gifted.

So, if some YouTuber is made to compete with a professional boxer, you'd bet on the former to win? Speed does everything for money and content just like me beast does... There's a possibility this is just another fame-making match.

I didn't say that. I'm basing it off what I have seen in the videos with physicality involved. It can be entertaining, though.

I think the real question is whether the promoters are actually serious about making this fight happen. Once it’s on Netflix, people will end up watching it simply because they’re already subscribed. Jake Paul saying they’d pay $10 million to iShowSpeed to make it happen might just be him playing along with the trolls. Honestly, I don’t think this fight is ever going to become a reality. After that hype, there’s been zero updates to excite boxing fans or even hint at its possibility. It feels more like a publicity stunt than anything real.

I think Jake ought to slow it down for just a little while on some of these fights until the dust settles with this latest one that was complete garbage. Why the hell would he make that comment at the end he’s such an idiot that can’t keep his mouth shut. lol homie has a BIG mouth! And an even bigger ego. He is also a con artist lmao but the odd thing is that I like him a little bit because he is just so strange yet strategic but so dumb lmao

To you? Okay, go ahead and get yourself some tickets to watch that shit.... I mean, the only reason why I decided to watch Mike on the ring for the last time again was that I really had an interest to see what the results would be ( since he's an ex fighter) but some YouTuber?? Speed's a clown and we all know this so wtf?.

I think Jake ought to slow it down for just a little while on some of these fights until the dust settles with this latest one that was complete garbage.

GARBAGE frfr !!! Jake looks like he's lowering his standards from a professional boxer to someone that accepts an open bet from some YouTuber. Speed's a jerk and y'all know how he can ruin things atimes. I'mma have to stay away from watching these matches if all they're gonna be hosting is something like this.

I guess that they will be interested with how much they will come up with this fight if they will look at the followers of both fighters. And that $10M just for ISS to sign for it, that's already a lot of money and ISS seems to be athletic as well and it would gain him more following too if this gets real. But let's if there's the real possibility that this fight is going to happen any time soon.
