Re: Badou Jack v Jake Paul
Badu jack still way to good and way to big…. (Not that he is bigger he just isn’t smaller)
That being said…. He is arguably the worst genuine world champion in boxing right now, son I guess it could be a laugh.. (I haven’t done the research to back that up)
Personally I feel that’s a world title cherrypick canelo should be looking at… if badu can tread water till may 2026 that’s got canelo cruiserweight world champ written all over it…
Actualy it would be kinda perfect for badu jack to KO Paul to become a name pre canelo fight…. Yuk that is WWE… he should just be fed to Jai who is the real world champion regardless of abc belts… but WWE sells…

Jack didn't want to do Catchweight, as it would put him at health risk.

How good if Chavez Jr rolls back the years and lays Jake Paul to waste, have him chicken dancing around the ring becoming a meme before the count reaches 10

I suspect there will, Paul can afford to throw money at it to get that contracted in can't he.keithmoonhangover wrote: ↑08 May 2025, 10:04Don't you think there'll be an agreement in place, like the Tyson fight?handsofstone wrote: ↑08 May 2025, 09:54 How good if Chavez Jr rolls back the years and lays Jake Paul to waste, have him chicken dancing around the ring becoming a meme before the count reaches 10
Re: Badou Jack v Jake Paul
Awful spectacle. Wouldn't be surprised if they add a rematch clause and Jack throws it
Re: Badou Jack v Jake Paul
That's how Paul will win a world title. He will throw so much money at the opponent and a letter to sign to keep his gob shut and win a world title.SeanBrennan wrote: ↑08 May 2025, 12:40I suspect there will, Paul can afford to throw money at it to get that contracted in can't he.keithmoonhangover wrote: ↑08 May 2025, 10:04Don't you think there'll be an agreement in place, like the Tyson fight?handsofstone wrote: ↑08 May 2025, 09:54 How good if Chavez Jr rolls back the years and lays Jake Paul to waste, have him chicken dancing around the ring becoming a meme before the count reaches 10
Re: Badou Jack v Jake Paul
If I ran a Mexican cartel I would pay Chavez to go off script and beat Paul. Partly for a laugh and partly because of Chavez Sr.
Edit: if I ran a Me ican cartel I would probably just tell him to win.

He couldn’t beat Tommy Fury. He’s not beating Badou Jack in a proper fight.

Paul looks to take advantage of weakness, whether it's old age, drug addiction or greed. with all that YouTube money, nobody will believe it if he actually does win a title on meritMasterG wrote: ↑08 May 2025, 15:28That's how Paul will win a world title.

Re: Badou Jack v Jake Paul
Jack was a genuinely good boxer. but sometimes he has these bad nights where he doesn't seem able to get his punches off. I didn't see his last contest but assume it was one of those fights in which he wasn't able or willing to pull the trigger. if he's a world champ he should not be taking two years off. it was a shame that Rozicki pulled out as his style may have suited Jack. If Jack becomes the man who "makes" Jake Paul as a "genuine" legit pro boxer, history will judge him very harshly.

Re: Badou Jack v Jake Paul
He’s going to be close to 42 if they fight, and been a pro 16 years, Paul could win this is Jack is faded or takes the money to gift it, which is sad

Re: Badou Jack v Jake Paul
Badou still has enough to beat him comfortably. Chavez Jr should just plod to a decision loss
Re: Badou Jack v Jake Paul
It's Badou Jack. We may be looking at a draw if he fights Jake Paul.
Badou Jack has a thing for them draws.

Re: Badou Jack v Jake Paul
In years to come Paul will come out and publicly say how he bought boxing, how he paid people off to win fights and won a world title by paying off the opponent, judges and referee.SeanBrennan wrote: ↑11 May 2025, 16:08this I feel speaks for the forumtiny_acres wrote: ↑11 May 2025, 13:36 I want to see Jake Paul laid out cold for a 10 count.

Badou is loved by the Saudis. If it's over there that evens it out a lot.

It's only speculation, but a number of journos and Teddy Atlas talked about the possibility of an agreement pre fight.Wales wrote: ↑15 May 2025, 19:58What agreement was in place for Tyson fight?keithmoonhangover wrote: ↑08 May 2025, 10:04Don't you think there'll be an agreement in place, like the Tyson fight?handsofstone wrote: ↑08 May 2025, 09:54 How good if Chavez Jr rolls back the years and lays Jake Paul to waste, have him chicken dancing around the ring becoming a meme before the count reaches 10
