[boxing] Jake Paul Vs Anhony Joshua

[lionheart78]

AJ calling out Fury after his win is what I don't get. Is AJ actually ready to take on Fury or he was simply being carried away by his momentary glory?

He is taking the chance to call on Fury with a huge audience.  This situation gives more buzz than just publishing it on social media.  I do not think AJ is carried away by the victory, I saw AJ expression during the fight, he is not taking the fight seriously, he knows he gonna win the fight.

Looking at the figure of the two, AJ is way larger than Jake Paul, all attributes to win is pointing to AJ.  And by the way, I read comments of people about the facial expression of Jake Paul when he was KO'ed on social media, and it was funny coz they  say, the expression shows the shock that AJ is not following the script lol.

It looks like it is a real fight, but it seems like Anthony Joshua is holding back, because there is no way it would take him six rounds if he was giving it 100%. Also, I heard Anthony Joshua broke Jake Paul's jaw. I wonder if Jake Paul is going to fight a boxer that is near Anthony Joshua's calibre or at least fight in boxing again, because it's clear that Jake Paul bit more than he could chew on this fight.

Jake Paul’s team say his jaw is broken. At least that will shut him up for a while. I think he’s lucky to leave the match with only a broken jaw. I’m looking forward to Andrew Tate vs Chase Demoor fight. It has got to be more entertaining than the dance AJ and Jake Paul gave us this morning.

Obviously it was rigged, nobody could deny that. But wouldn't it be better for viewers if Joshua just came out swinging and KO'd Jake in the first 30 seconds? I am not saying he could have, because Jake was just running around, so Joshua simply just waited for Jake to get tired and when that happened he pounded.

Jake didn't get off the floor whole match, all he did was just drop to his knees all match long and hoped for the decision, he didn't even tried to win, he just hoped he could go to distance and lose that way. Joshua beating Jake on the first round would have made it better for the viewers, and would have been more real. This way, just playing with your food kind of thing didn't really have anything nice to watch.

On one side is former world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua, and on the other is Jake Paul, a YouTuber turned boxer. The level that boxing has sunk to is truly painful. When Mike Tyson did this, I was happy for him, but I didn't enjoy this show. In fact, it made me think that boxing has taken a ridiculous turn...

Meanwhile, Anthony Joshua knocked Jake Paul out with his first punch. In my opinion, this was because he hadn't been hitting very hard up until that point. It was as if he wanted the match to go on a bit longer. He won the match and the money without breaking a sweat...

Yea I gotta agree, Jake Paul didn't look at all like someone who wanted to box or had the skill to compete with someone like Joshua who was superior in every way. Jake is making a mockery of the sport and the public are all victims.

I already had Netflix for other shows I watch so I wasn't really robbed of any money, but imagine if I had been 1 of the thousands who purchased a ticket to the fight. I feel like Jake Paul did not entertain at all but more looked like a bitch. I'd want a refund.

Look, we're at a point in this game where not just a single "Wannabe" boxer mocks the game, but even the organizers themselves. First of all, how do you make a fixture between Jake and AJJ? The two are not of the same weight, height and core strength class. I already knew how easy this was going to be for AJ, but also thought-- this might just be one of those exhibition matches where anybody has an advantage.

Now they come out to complain of a broken jaw, which was caused by that final "Jab and hit" fatality shot. Logan Paul, I learnt the Mofo mad after Jake was turned into Vegetables.

This is the extent of Jake Paul's injury, and with it, he will learn his lesson about whom to fight: he will never fight someone bigger and more powerful than he is.
If we look at Jake Paul's record, his two defeats came against real professional boxers; all his other fights and wins came against old or retired boxers.

[Yaunfitda]

Anyone who believes that Anthony Joshua would ruin his reputation because of money, got it wrong. Yeah, the fight is all about money, but I don't think the Englishman will even accept a draw because Jake Paul is an amateur.

True, but some fighters won't think twice selling their reputation for what they consider to be fair price fighting a youtuber.

Delaying the knockout upto six rounds was nothing but intentional act from Joshua.

According to AJ, he purposely kept Jake for that long to mess with his spirit, it was all scripted but if the fight was basically unscripted, there really would be no need to take long time to end the fight.

At least he knows how to entertain fans and get as much fan on their fans while it lasted. For Jake Paul, he gets respect from fighting the AJ and getting a broken jaw.  So let's see if we will have a all British showdown, I think both of them wanted that fight for a long time but it was derailed when AJ lost to Dubois. But right now it's all reap as I think fans wanted to see AJ vs Tyson Fury for all the marbles. It will be good for the British boxing history if this two are going to face each other maybe for the biggest paycheck that we will see or one of the biggest. Instead of seeing exhibition fight, this one fight could go down in the history books.

Now that Jake Paul lost via KO, and with a broken jaw at that, folks on social media still believe the fight was staged and that Paul let himself lose. Lol. Well, isn’t that what they were wishing to happen anyway? If it really was staged, then wow, Jake Paul even went to such a risk just to satisfy the viewers. But really, in reality, in a serious fight, Jake Paul doesn’t stand a chance against a real boxer, who can still box. If Anthony Joshua really wanted to, he could have KO’d him earlier. Actually, that would look more believable to the audience.

[OgNasty]

The video where it showed inside his mouth right after the fight was gnarly. This is probably worse than Jake was expecting it would go. I hope he decides he did what he set out to do and finds his next thing now.

[goldkingcoiner]

As long as Joshua wins, I am 100% happy. Even if I have no money riding on the outcome...
I really dislike Jake Paul and his brother. What an awful family.

Dishonored pretenders.

AJ literally told him that he was going to knock him out in a very bad state because his a fighter and that’s what they are licensed to do but Jake Paul underestimated what he meant by that, AJ said the fight is about him beating Jake until his soul leaves his body, he specifically mentioned that it wouldn’t be a 1 round knock out and he fulfilled it, but the last statement was that Jake Paul will probably want to give up on fighting or find something else to do just like you said. That’s the best thing I have seen manifest just like he said it.

AJ did some real damage to his jaw. But the jaw broken in two places didn't quite shut Jake up as he remains cocky and is now calling out Canelo Alvarez.
That's understandable, he shouldn't really drop the act now. The business that he's in requires him to stay in character, so I don't expect him to humble down anytime soon. It won't be long untill Paul and his team will start paddling the narrative of him actually winning the fight until the KO.

I knew the fight was a huge mismatch, but I was still surprised of how little Jake could do in that fight. I expected to see at least few serious attempts to close the distance and attempt some combinations greater than two punches. Instead, his game plan was slip and counter with uppercuts, followed by throwing himself to the ground and grabbing AJ's leg. I guess since AJ agreed to take things easy during the early rounds, Paul had play along as well and couldn't go all in, as that would force AJ to react accordingly.

Jake isn't looking like he has gotten enough of what he was expecting because after all the injuries no one expected him to be speaking out now but even in the hospital bed with a broken jaw he's out there still talking, Joshua took the fight too long nobody knows what he was trying to do may be the broken jaw wasn't what he wanted to do but all the best to Jake he's got what he wanted let's see the next new thing he's going to try again.

Jack Paul won the 1st round on points amazingly, that brief peak was the time to cash out your nice odds on the fight and be happy about it.
   The last few rounds when Paul was throwing himself at his opponent and onto the floor, you can be sure Anthony Joshua was thinking of the money and contract because that was a model of restraint.  

Just getting a broken jaw from finally Joshua landing some solid punches is a lucky gift, Paul exposed himself so badly that Tyson in his heyday or any boxer purely out to cause pain could have killed him with blows to the back of his head.
  Jake Paul was sitting on the ropes far too many times, no where to go with his guard down clearly exhausted and Joshua did not end it or throw down the punch he could.  Its an easy guess he held back while obviously frustrated at the grappling and nonsense.

I saw what you did here. Well, he thought AJ was going to be nice to him like Mike.

I’m looking forward to Andrew Tate vs Chase Demoor fight. It has got to be more entertaining than the dance AJ and Jake Paul gave us this morning.

I have never seen Tate's fight. And I am looking forward to this one. I hope his punches are as big as his words because the world mostly his young followers will be watching to either hail or critic him.

People think because he has fought a lot of fight, they thought he can't be beating? Well everyone seems to disappointed when Jake Paul won the last fight with Tyson Fury and everyone was busy nagging everywhere that Tyson was not honor and the game was fit. Now they brought another guy that humbled him with a real fight with all his jaws broken and nobody want to believe him, they thought the game was set up. Lol.

Most people that are fuming like bet and they loss that's why many of them are angry. There was nothing obvious about any manipulation of fight here, I enjoyed every time spent on streaming the game. Let's even assume the fight was set up, in this kind of game that people expected Jake Paul to win they don't understand business of MMA, there is nothing going to entertain if Anthony should win this match.

The match was actually scripted. I can't believe it wasn't. AJ had to take so long to knock Jake out. Something he was capable of doing right from the first round.

Anyway, my question would be, why would someone take a punch for something that was scripted? To make it more reaslistic, they have to make sure AJ won the match, if not a lot of questions would be ask.

That’s true. Jake Paul now has "I went 6 rounds with AJ" & “I went down like a champ” in his pocket. Boy, you ran away throughout the fight. It was so bad that the referee had to give him a warning.

Somehow watching Jake hug AJ’s legs planted in my head the visual of the Bible story where the king Saul held on to the prophet Samuel’s garment begging him to stay. It was very embarrassing.

Pretty wild he got a double broken jaw. I didnt know that was really possible man that must have been some knockout. Ill definitely be going back to watch it ive only just seen it all over social media. Funny thing is that even a double broken jaw wont be enough to keep Jake Paul's mouth shut hahaha
