News *** Jake Paul vs. Anderson Silva Boxing Bout Set for October MEGA THREAD ***

[John12]

They get more than that percentage on the card which they fight on.

Who gets more? That percentage includes all fighters

 

[The Bloody Nine]

You honestly thought he was giving his 100%?

No, you're right. He allowed Paul to close his eye, bust his nose and knock him down. Was this your first time seeing Silva box or something?

He got busted because he wasn't fighting back and was just taking it. He fought way differently against Chavez Jr.

No, he didn't.

What was weird was the bet...
Jake Paul said if he loses in boxing he'll do a kickboxing match with Anderson? Why? Get beat in boxing why would you want a kickboxing match?
But if Anderson wins he will be a president or w/e for his fighters union thing.

Regardless Jake Paul dropped a 47 y/o Silva.

 

[revoltub]

The denial itt...


Jake bless

 

[BrockLesnarsTurtleBack]

He can’t fight dude, as someone who follows boxing on every level I can tell you the guys form is ugly and the talent is non existent… every thing is a power punch or an over extension. He’s just an average in shape bro taking boxing classes winging punches at MMA champs and getting away with it.


Again I respect the eyes he brings to the sport but he’s handpicking MMA guys for a reason and it’s becoming a problem for the UFC.


Do you know what the “boxing pedigree” is? I won’t even mention what low level pros would do to him, because it would be a disrespect to boxing

We just saw Silva easily dismantle a boxing world champion. Jake Paul is legitimate and the present and future of boxing.

 

[snotflakes]

The amount of Paul bros threads that remain active and take over the UFC section are fucking ridiculous.

At best, they should only be in Boxing forum.
At worst, they saturate the UFC section with loose ramblings about Dana or former UFC fighters.

Why do you allow this shit to go on?

Why not card people or give warnings?

EDIT;

Great. I create a thread ATT Mods and it gets merged.
What a fine shitty modding job.

Double edit. At least they moved it into the boxing section.

Take a deep breath. Relax. Its only a forum.

 

[capnlarge]

They hate on him because he has been fighting MMA fighters, not boxers, all of whom have essentially washed out of MMA because they can’t compete there anymore. As great as Anderson was in MMA, he still lost 7 of his last 9 and the UFC released him.

Even if you throw in his recent boxing wins, that’s still 7 losses in his last 11 fights before tonight. That isn’t good.

Jake is a good boxer and has poured tens of thousands of dollars into top trainers and put in the work for years now, but he isn’t fighting equal sized, similar age, skilled boxers. He is fighting old men who couldn’t compete in a different sport anymore.

No bitterness, just straight facts. Fight real boxers and make a real career out of it.

Jake Paul has no incentive to take harder fights. The amount of money he makes would not go up, unless he fought Tyson Fury or something. In fact, fighting Nate Diaz in boxing would definitely make him more money than if he fought a preliminary boxer

 

[mommas homeboy]

This is truly embarrassing for MMA…and unbelievably empowering for the Jake Paul brand. Dude is an absolute beast. There’s no denying it.

He’s now KO’d a former champ out cold with one punch…a champ famous for his brutal striking. And he clearly beat a man who many consider the GOAT MMA fighter. Silva was also famous for his accuracy and deadly striking. This is amazing actually.

 

[SamboPunch]

He never did that. You're making yourself look really ignorant.

lol ignorant for mixing up two similar looking brothers, oops... they are both shit people and have a laundry list of shit they've done to get that title.

 

[ComfortablyNumb55]

This was the plan all along.

Paul actually idolizes Silva and loves the UFC.

A former employee of the UFC came to Paul with a plan to get ex fighters huge paydays, but of course the agreement includes Paul winning to embarrass and stick it to Dana White.

This shit is brilliant and Paul actually has a big heart for UFC fighters.

 

[tymikeson]

Jake is on par for most boxers in their first 6 fights

Here is the current undisputed world cruiser champ Lawrence okolie's first 6 fights:

 

[countonme]

Anderson Silva took a dive that was obvious

 

[panamaican]

I don't know how anyone can be surprised by this. Silva's not a boxer and he's almost 50 years old. No matter how great an MMA fighter he was, no one beats father time in their own sport, let alone a sport where they don't have decades of muscle memory.

 

[WklySportsMemes]

He got busted because he wasn't fighting back and was just taking it. He fought way differently against Chavez Jr.

Anderson Silva fought last night exactly like Anderson Silva has fought throughout his entire career.

He is a moron and probably misspoke, should have said if he won.

 

[LostMyBlackBelt]

47 is not 50. Hopkins won a boxing world championship at 46. So beating a YouTuber at 47 shouldn't be a problem. At least make sure you don't get knocked down...

Because everyone is Hopkins. Canelo is slowing down at 32.

 

[tomjones]

Jake Paul has to fight hopkins or maybe mike tyson. The sky's the limit for this youtuber.

 

[LostMyBlackBelt]

Jake will call out Ali next
