Can we all agree that Ben Askren

[Luckyme]

Ben has a decent chin. He survived some brutal GnP from Robbie Lawler. He doesn't have anything offensively but he can likely survive being hit with 12 oz gloves. He'll clinch up repeatedly when hurt and survive to lose a decision.

Which objectively isn't as humiliating as the 5-second Masvidal KO or getting smoked 12-0 in wrestling a few years ago by Jordan Burroughs. This is just an easy cash grab for Ben.

Oh, it could to be the worst fight of all time.

It definitely has the potential to be that very thing

 

[Johnny_Knuckles]

That was one of the most vicious ko's I've seen in awhile
Nate may still be out in year 2021. That was nasty. Head bounced face first off the canvas as well

Pull the other one, its got bells on it

He'll be dependent on the clinch, thats for sure. But if a ref won't stand for that bs. It'll be good night Irene for ben.
Hoping a ref actually refs properly and makes them box

There's clinching in every single boxing match, unless we have the ref that was in charge of the Hatton - Mayweather fight there will be clinching ( a shit ton I bet) in this one, especially as its two amateur boxers.

 

[USA!USA!]

Do not purchase this ppv, it's a sham. Not floyd conor level scam but close

Unless u wanna see ben get Ko'd then i can understand

That is exactly why I want to watch.

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.

This. Plus, Ben has been competing almost his entire life. I can't picture him getting "sonned" by Jake Paul.

But it's the referee's job to make them box. If the ref is stingy with the amount of clinching he will allow it could be bad news for Ben.

 

[filthynumber1]

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

So if you were to bet you would pick Paul by decision?

Watch the Mayweather Hatton fight, was controversial over here in the UK because of how often the ref broke the fight up, and there was still a ton of clinching, like every single boxing match. Inside fighting is a massive part of boxing, which ben will dominate.

imma stream the shit out of that card

Ben Askren has no shot. Only people deluding themselves into thinking he has a chance are the weird MMA supremacist types

Seems like the most likely outcome. The judging will definitely be biased, so Askren will have to win cleanly to get the decision and I doubt anything about this fight will be clean.

It's possible Paul gasses out and Askren wins by ref stoppage, it's possible Askren outworks him to a decision, it's possible Paul lands a bomb.

I expect a truly awful fight with no clear winner, and for Paul to be given the decision.

What a dumb statement, only a dope who doesn't know shit about boxing would say that.

Cool, show me your bet slip then. With such good odds for Askren, this is an easy moneymaking opportunity for you.

From a entertainment standpoint we'd all like to see Ben stand and bang because we know Jake will.
But ben if ain't no dummy he knows he will likely lose by highlight reel ko if he does

Boring fight ensues


But hey I can dream

 

[muaythaidon1]

I've made a mistake, I've repeatedly called these two amateur boxers which is ridiculous, this is two white collar boxers fighting on PPV, they are nowhere near amateur level.

 

[Turdbucket]

I don't know about that. He got his ko from a small sized car and went on like it was nothing afterwards. Jake will be going for a flashy ko and might get mauled after exhausting himself. Ben doesnt need snappy punches if Jake lets him dig in with slow ass fist insertion punches to his abdomen against the ropes. Ben has some crazy core strenght afterall. But really? Who gives a fuck about this fight? Except for reading the results.

Lolololol you are a very weird dude.

If normal is being an adult that still writes "lolololol", I'm good as a "weird dude".
