    Yeaaaaa I'll believe it when I see it. No way Jake takes this fight unless its predetermined that AJ will hold back everything. Or worse, predetermined that AJ will take a dive... which would absolutely obliterate his already damaged legacy.

    If Joshua tries even a little bit, it would be a massacre.

    Very doubtful it happens.

    Same here. I don't care about "celebrities" dancing, playing poker, answering trivia questions and i certainly am not interested in seeing a freak show fight.

    Would Joshua still be favored if he had his right arm tied behind his back

    The fix will be in. No way Jake sets himself up to be hospitalized.

    Cmon A.J is a multi MULTI millionaire. He ain't throwing away everything he's done for couple more bucks. Give Jake some credit if he takes the fight. Enough with all this staged shit. Jake can't lose. Probably gets 50 million + and if/when he loses he will say cmon it was Anthony Fucking Joshua and continue on with his career

    All I'm saying is it'll shock the living shit outta me if the fight plays out naturally. Because the non-gimmick, natural result would be Joshua KO 1. Somehow I doubt we get a natural conclusion.

    I dont think theres enough money in the world for AJ to take a dive. He already has more money that he can spend, and it would turn him into an eternal laughingstock. Imagine that, losing to a guy that lost to Tyson Fury bum of a brother....

    And Jake paul gains nothing from getting obliterated. You don't go from tank davis to A fucking J lol. As shitty and robotic as he is, hes probably the most vicious fighter in boxing right now

    No, he can lose and lose badly at that considering he'd most likely get a major concussion and/or lose a lot of his mainstream appeal. Sure for dudes like us we would jump at the opportunity to get 50M$ in exchange of being viciously koed but Paul can make a fortune facing smaller shot fighters. Hell he'd probably make more facing Pac than AJ and that's a fight he's a big favorite to win. No way it happens

    Only reason this fight happens is Paul wants to cash out if he realizes his gimmick is running thin (maybe the Davis projected sales were that bad). In that case do not expect a serious effort from him. You don't go from fighting 60 y.o. smaller Mike Tyson to a near prime AJ (I feel awful not only putting the 2 in the same sentence but putting AJ above Tyson, but it is what it is) if you're realistically trying to win.

    AJ must only care about money at this stage, because he's setting up his legacy to go down the shitter. Anything less than a total annihilation and AJ will be bashed by fans forever.

    You don't think joshua will redeem himself in the hearts of his fans after the dubious debacle with a valiant effort in defeat vs Paul?

    AJ really only cares about the bag, doesn't he? What can he gain from this? If he wins as easily as he is expected to, he is expected to. If he loses, and as absolutely shit as Paul is, let's not forget that AJ got brayed by a useless fat cunt, his reputation collapses into shame and ridicule, forever.

    All about the bag.

    Who came up with this stupid "bag" term. Pretty sure Jake Paul did or at least that's when I first heard it. Now all these annoying kids repeating it..

    Jake Paul did NOT in any way, shape, or form originate the term "getting the bag."

    In came from hip hop and gained popularity with the mainstream.

    Jake will lose by KO in 1 obviously and say he has a long way to go and still has his sights set on the cruiser weight title. Go home and sleep on a comfy pillow with 100 million dollars in it.
