2/26 ESPN+ PPV: Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury / Ilunga Makabu vs Badou Jack (WBC Cruiserweight Title)

[⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐]

better fighter by what standards?
lol he's not a professional boxer
he lost to another guy who really isnt a professional boxer himself

It’s fair to say we saw their current skill level … better level of competition than a lot of fighters face this early in their careers. Give them time

Admit it, you’d pay to see Tommy Fury vs Canelo

nobody who is not a casual would lol

Damn didn't even know what time the card was starting lol. Happy for Badou. I remember when he got upset by Derek Edwards and people wrote him off(the Floyd association as well). His career post that loss is amazing. His career would be an easy HOF minus dubious decisions against DeGale and Adonis. Truly champ at 168, 175 and 200.

he got robbed against degale but that superman shyt it was a foolish plan and he got hurt late..with those 2 wins...he would be HOF bound

So this was basically “Celebrity boxing”?

Correct or more appropriately Amateur boxing

Ain't Canelo like 5'7 150. It's still a height and 30-plus pound weight difference. There is a reason weight classes exist. Even Mayweather was getting annoyed by Logan shoving him around. Logan just had no way of hitting Floyd but he could have still ragdolled him in real life if he grabbed him somehow.

fam Canelo walks around at around 200lbs

Badou definitely starts a bit slow but everyone he fought always ended up much more beat up lol. But of course, we have to score rounds, not faces.

maybe people can go watch some real boxing now

He was never serious, he's a Love Island influencer who happens to have a world champion on one side of his family. He's just cashing out as the first person Paul didn't have enough to pay off to take a dive. Look at Fury's record before this: an actual coli breh posting in this thread would put up a better fight than 90% of the "boxers" he's fought:

10-102

Breh at what point do you accept that this shyt ain't for you

Can somebody post a Jevgenijs Andrejevs highlight reel

We know exactly the caliber of fighter that Jake is. He's not facing ranked competition. He's looks exactly like he should. And when he finally went up against another below-average boxer born in the same decade as him, he looked extra-ordinary and lost his 0. Just enjoy the circus brehs.
