I'm worried for our boy Mike Perry...

[FriskyRandy]

Paul and Perry are friends. I have a bad feeling Perry won't be the usual savage he normally is and this is a scripted win for Paul. Why would you fight a savage like Mike Perry and lose the Tyson fight which is worth 10x more?

Why does Jake Paul fight heavier here but vs Rahman he wanted to limit the weight cut.

Does have have to have a size or age advantage every single time

He gained weight for Mike

He wasn't that big before. Probably like 210 soaking wet.

Rahman tried to pull a Costa and show up heavy / hoping that Paul just took the fight anyways. Said he wouldn't fight any lower than 215 or whatever it was. Then he weighed in at 205 after the fight was already canceled.

Kinda says more about Rahman that he went to those lengths to get an advantage over a rookie.

Mmm so where does Jake even fight ? MW or LHW ? Mike, Nate, Tyron those are 4 fights vs 170ers.

Jake Paul already owns the UFC and his fans. The fact that a Youtuber can dominate former UFC champions & Hall of Famers in combat sports show how low the skill

Jake Paul vs Royce Gracie next boxing match…

After that Jake should call out Don Frye

 

[Staph infection]

Take a dive and get paid. Tomorrow's another day.

Most think Mike is getting paid well to "box" against Paul but lets hope Platinum goes off script and takes him out. While a big pay day is nice, the notoriety and boost in popularity if he wins will be worth more over the long run.

That would be awesome. Nothing would please me more. I have my doubts since Jake would never show up unless very specific legal documents with very specific stipulations were signed in full by Perry. So unfortunately, I'm prepared to be let down as usual.

170ers all walk around at like 190-200 pounds. So, he's not too far from that. Or at

I think he probably had like 5 pounds on Nate and Woodley.

At least back then

Probably gonna be a huge weight diff for this one tho

Jake's only advantage is his massive bank account. He can personally pay pro fighters more money than they've ever seen in their lives, to do exactly what he wants them to do.

Yep, it will be a glorified sparring match with Perry losing by a UD. But Platinum is crazy so let's all hope he goes all hood in there and makes us proud.

 

[cws80us]

Yeah it's not like he was beating prime level MMA guys. It was retired undersized wrestlers (Askren and Woodley) then 46- yeast old Anderson Silva, which honestly that one surprised me a bit. Even at that age I thought AS would be able to outclass him. As far as Nate Diaz, let's face it, he was popular but nothing more than a journeyman type fighter in the UFC and also undersized against Paul. Mike Perry was also nothing special in the UFC but found his niche in BKFC where it's really more toughness than skill, which he's built for. I expect Paul will easily decision him.

 

[r-harper-1]

I don't think he would beat Perry in mma. He could beat Nate in mma, but Perry I'm confident would beat him in mma.

Perry way stronger than Nate ….I agree with your assessment

What's the point of doing that when you're legitimately a better boxer than them though?

Fight fixing happens.

But, I don't really see why Jake Paul would be singled out more than anyone.

You could only think that if you genuinely believe he can't box or fight. Which isn't something based in reality.

 

[TankAbbott4Eva]

Paul knows how to pick them.

Excellent business savvy.

Absolutely, this dude knows what he’s doing

I don’t think he’s a “legitimately” better boxer than any of them. Not even close. He has no foot work. He looks totally amateur to me, and his pro fighter opponents look like they’re doing all the work pretending to make the fight look busy. Just my opinion. Nate’s been fighting longer than Jake’s been alive. He threw nothing in Jake’s fight but then looked like himself again, throwing punches nonstop till the last bell vs Masvidal. Seems painfully obvious to me. Does Jake even hard spar? Where's the footage? What kind of legit boxer wants to fight Mike Tyson at his age with his health issues?

Then you don't know boxing

You just read some comment on youtube saying this shit and decided to agree with it

Because deep down you're coping with the idea of some Disney youtuber beating mma fighters.

 

[AmonTobin]

Lol, you just read some comment on youtube saying this shit and decided to agree with it

Don't act like you know how to analyze boxing

Pffft. I gave you a respectful answer. I'm not gonna argue with you. Don't be a dick about it. He's not your boyfriend. If you think it's real, enjoy the shit out of it. I think he's a fraud and his fights are fixed. Agree to disagree.

 

[froggyluv]

Speaking of Jake Paul, he's been begging for a MMA fight.. He wanted one with Diaz and he wanted one with Perry after the boxing match.

I think Jake beats Perry in MMA too

And nobody is accepting his challenge to fight MMA

F wrongs with this guy? Hes been combat training long enough -time to fight your weight class and stop being a weight bully. Thats how MMA started

I edited it, didn't mean to be such a dick.

This is the other half of the post though.



Nate barely threw anything when he fought masvidal in MMA too. He didn't start throwing until the 3rd.

Jake was hitting him and countering well whenever Nate moved forward and started to gain some momentum.

Only after Jake started slowing down, you seen Nate come online a bit

Nate is historically a very slow starter as well.

How about Tommy fury?

Anderson Silva looked about as good as you can expect from a 45 year old man, with some tinges of Anderson of old.

All these conspiracies, imagine if you just spent that amount of time analyzing technique.

Tons of fighters have been pretty respectful of Jake. Even tank, Tyson Fury, DC, O Malley

Are they all in on it too? Did Jake pay them all off to say he had skill?

Did he also pay Mike perry to say he kicked his ass after they sparred a few years ago?
