Great entrance from the women - Franchon coming in like Deontay Wilder.
Green just looks mean.

Anyone scoring ? Perseus ?
I feel like FCD is 2-0 up, but it's very scrappy. FCD smothering SG and throwing more, so 20-10 FCD.

3-1 thru 4. Green is just trying to potshot bombs, being smothered and outworked generally.

It's hard and gruelling but a crap watch. Green looks rubbish.
FCD is mauling and rushing and throwing short hooks - she fights like Chisora.
4-1 FCD
She
looks like Chisora !

FCD pulling away.
Rounds less competitive now.
6-2 FCD.

Just a dull, scrappy fight - surely FCD won a few more rounds a bit more clearly

I assume august is picked to get beat. but he looks like a fair enough opponent on paper.

Glad to see FCD get that decision.
I had 98-92 FCD but Green is the promoters fighter...

got $2.90 on paul by KO... was thinking about going early, but kinda thought paul might be happy to go a couple of rounds. Was a fairly fun fight while it lasted, but I think paul needs name opponents to make it a spectical worth watching.

Jake Paul KO 2/1 earlier this week !
TBF that was a great KO, set up fight or not.
Still gotta land it, it was R1, and (at this level) he certainly has power.

For paul a guy his size, still prime age (just), and top 300ish, is pretty dam good. But no name value so not really exciting to build a show around...
For hrg an olimpic medalist, high ranked, prime guy fighting a 300ish guy isnt great.
Sanchez a hyped prospect with 20 pro fights and probably 200+ amature ones, fighting 3x 300ish guys in a row isnt great.

20 bucks, at 2.90 odds to get back $58 dollars ($38 profit). pretty tidy odds for somthing that will be talked about as a mere formality in hind sight.

You think it's all fixed ?
I mean the KOs are obviously real and, of course, "professional boxer" Andre August was carefully selected, but the KO was real - you must admit it was a decent KO.
(unless it's all serious fraud)

nah i just think it's funny to get impressed over an ending that could be seen 10 miles away. jake has already ktfo guys who aren't very good boxers. heard the exact same 'but you gotta admit it was a good ko' before. how much do we keep giving him credit for the same thing? this doesnt really make jake paul fights any more interesting.
anderson silva was a higher ranked boxer than this guy

It was a good win, good shot. Its not a crazy shock, But a good result (better than expected by most judging by the bookies odds). When demori gets chinned that will be a formality.... this was not a formality.
Agree this dosent help the jake paul hype though... He can not fight no name guys, it just dosent work unless they are legit top 100s (which are probably a bit too good for him risk fighting).
Paul needs names that arnt great or give away crazy advantages.
KSI is the clear choice. Tommy Fury II. Mcgregor. Floyd. Marcelo wilder (on the AJ vs wilder undercard....), Mike Perry. Jorge Masvidal... Anthony pettis (so many boxrec points to steal from his gross roy jones jr fight...), Mike tyson or roy (if your onboard with old men fighting...) mabey a trev pulev. These are the kinda names needed for paul to do good/crazy numbers.

Those all sound like good options for Jake but he's never going to be on an undercard.
Jake Paul is a main event fighter
If we're going have Floyd and Conner on the list of opponents I think GGG and Bellew should be on the list too.
