Agree he is gonna get destroyed, still will be fun to watch don’t care if either guy gets destroyed
 
I'll take the former US Olympian with cardio over a YouTuber

Askren was never knocked out with MMA gloves, if he does lose, it won't be by knockout. The biggest hurdle is judges who will be paid by Paul.
That's because he would clinch, grapple, wrestle anytime he got hurt or get close enough to do so. In boxing he will not have that option. Clinch will be separated, Jake Paul knows how to clinch fight. He will be forced to stand and exchange with his hands. It's definitely possible for him to get KO/TKO in the fight. Askren will be out of his comfort zone and forced to fight with only boxing. Which will make him available to be hit, unlike in mma where he would get the takedown then focus on control/submission.

This fight will be a good fight to show mma community the differences between grappling, mma, and pure boxing. Versus a fighter they all think is an amateur. Who has only been training for a couple of years.

What are you talking about, Jake Paul knows how to fight well on the inside, what from the 2 fights he's had and 2 years worth of experience in boxing? give me a break, this is two amateur boxers going in, one who's an actual combat athlete and the other who is a youtuber. One knows how to pace himself the other doesn't know shit about fighting.
 
True, but Askren won't have to worry about kicks or knees, just punches from an amateur.
But he’s much better at boxing than Ben
He may be an amateur but he’s pretty legit. It’s not like it’s a bum off the street
 
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.
That is bens only chance. Which if he is effective it's going to be 0/10 on the entertainment factor
