Can we all agree that Ben Askren

[Ares Black]

So I should bet on Askren then?

Definitely not. He could very well lose, I just really doubt he will get knocked out.

Lol. Jake Paul hasn't beaten anyone. He is an amateur.

Askren is a professional combat athlete. Robbie Lawler couldn't knock him out, but Jake Paul will? Ok.

You must be one of those guys secretly betting on Jake but pretending Askren is any good so you can make good money. That, or you're just bad at reasoning.

Or, I understand how boxing works.

But it’s boxing. Paul isn’t going to have to worry about the takedown.

Ok.

Gotcha, let's keep pretending.

Askren is going to clinch the shit out of Paul and try to wear him out.

Do people think Askren is going to get into a firefight? This fight is going to be ugly, and no one is getting knocked out.

 

[Ares Black]

Ok.

Spoiler

Gotcha, let's keep pretending.

Will bump this thread when I am right.

It's hilarious that people think Paul will definitely knock out Askren. It's theoretically possible, but very, very unlikely.

 

[MMAJesus]

Idk, he did go what 20-0 against decent competition and stood with some good strikers. Mas knocked him out but it was more of a lucky perfect shot KO and wouldn’t ever happen again. It was a knee that he leaned into and not punches

True, but Askren won't have to worry about kicks or knees, just punches from an amateur.

No chance this bum is knocking out Askren, he's beaten a couple of absolute bums. I think ben's just going to pressure him and break him down, if it's 8 rounds then that's great news for Ben as there is no chance this youtuber knows how to pace himself.

You know what else is hilarious? Your reasoning just a minute ago.

We'll see.

I get the impression you have never actually watched a boxing match.

Except that he's right. You are embarrassing yourself.

In pure boxing Askren is the amateur, not Jake Paul.

They are both amateurs, but Paul has yet to fight an actual athlete.

 

[Ares Black]

I get the impression you've never watched a boxing nor MMA match, or, to be less mean, Askren or Jake fight.

Your username checks out.

You offer nothing but empty criticism of other people with actual opinions.

You have 35K messages on Sherdog and think Askren has a good chance of winning this fight. If there's someone embarrassing himself, it's you.

 

[Bork Neslar]

I hope Ben pulls off the win. That other guy deserves to be punched.
