double negative posted:the nasukawa fight was hilarious. if the paul fight is anywhere near as funny, it will absolutely be worth the zero dollars i will pay to watch it lol The SituAsian posted:FWIW there's actually a pretty interesting pricing model though I'm not sure what it means for those going through cable/satellite pay per view. I'm guessing those will just end up being the standard $69 (nice).99 this is legit a great idea. i will never pay money for this horseshit, but this is a great idea.

No, you can't beat the best boxer on the planet even by accident even if you outweigh him by 50lbs

What's the ref gonna do, DQ an exhibition for being too safe? if floyd's old rear end couldn't stop paul clinching him he would literally die against anyone he had fought in the last five years including conor mcgregor.

maybe but i'm just thinking back to guys i've outweighed by 50 lbs who are lightyears better than me and i'd have better chances at grabbing a ghost

it's fairly hard to gauge tszyu at the moment. he gave jeff horn a beating who was imo a little bit past the jeff that gave pac a run. he could be really, really loving good but yeah i'd say a solid B fighter as it stands from just the eye test.

does anyone think that usyk is going to have any serious success at heavyweight? his fight with chisora was.... troubling. i could see him mayyyyybe having the boxing chops to outpoint joshua if he survives the first half, but wilder would probably find a punch in 12 rounds and fury would maul him. would love to see usyk / fury though.

I guess Askren just wasn't prepared for a one two where the rear hand was a telegraphed haymaker. All credit to Jake Paul: a real fighter.

if it was rigged it was because askren was hit by that punch at all, not that the punch didn't have the heat on it to justify a tko stoppage. it was the sloppiest, slowest, most telegraphed combo i've seen to knock somebody out in a professional fight i've seen in memory.

pure striking practice is a staple of mma training. if askren hasn't advanced past being able to mitigate a rear hand haymaker then there was a full time position at every gym he has trained at where some guy would have to mop bits of askren off the mats after his sessions with fuckng pettis or tyron woodley

Freudian slippers posted:Not sure what that's supposed to mean, the event was an utter disgrace and the fights were poo poo. Paul knocking out Askren however, was in no way a surprise. Even the most stand-up focussed mma fighter still grapples and everyone in the UFC would be at the very least a purple belt in bjj talent wise, and you're saying it's completely believable that they got beat in a grappling match by a one year white belt.

MotU posted:no one said he would lose I think, just that Conor would have to KO him really fast or it would damage his rep and that may be difficult since Jake Paul is heavier, and also that it would be really funny if Conor McGregor would get knocked out by Jake Paul, which it objectively would, if it happened i can assure you that having 35lbs more gym in your body will not stop an elite striker from loving killing a hobbyist boxer whenever he wants.
