    Is this how Paul earns ‘legitimacy’ as a boxer? Pull up aging giants for spectacle?

    Why isn’t this fuck boxing pugilists that can hit as hard or harder?

    He fought a man 6 years out from being allowed to draw SSI benefits. It’s not talent, it’s biology. A 60 year old doesn’t move like a 27 year old.

    If I was a boxing fan I think I’d be pissed off about the whole thing.

      Boxing fans are the dumbest fucks that unironically think the stupid racial aspect of the sport are a proud tradition. They praise ryan Garcia for coming in overweight, using roids and going on a nazi screed. This is their level. This is their sty and they can roll in it

      No boxing fan sees Joke Paul as a serious boxer. He chooses his opponents very carefully. His only “legitimate” opponent was Tommy Fury and he lost. Tommy isn’t even a decent boxer himself, his popularity is because he’s from the Fury family (I think half brother to Tyson Fury) and he’s some reality TV star. Every boxing fan just wants to see Joke Paul choose a legitimate boxer and see him get KTFO and end this circus side show.

      No one sees him as legitimate, everyone hates him. As for why he’s fighting geriatrics? It’s a two-fold answer:

      1. He’s doing basic pro-wrestling heel shit. Making people hate him so they’ll pay money to see him get his ass beat.

      2. Of course Jake is a coward who does not have the backbone to actually ever give us a fight where he gets fucked up, so he’s just gonna keep doing this loser shit. He’s a regular billionaire dipshit loser
