Legit have no idea who the hell Jake Paul is.

Fuck it, get that money. If Ben will make a couple of million, he should absolutely take the opportunity. He could get embarrassed, but I’m sure he will feel pretty good when he looks at his bank account.

 

[Apollo33]

Ben please stop embarrassing yourself.

I feel like Jake Paul is going to win

Legit have no idea who the hell Jake Paul is.

I would say you're living under a rock, but its a rock worth living under

Lucky

Couldn't pick a worse UFC boxer SMH

Probably picked THE WORST ever other than cm punk

 

[jrleclerc88]

What a terrible fight, whats the selling point here?. Ben has absolutely no business in a boxing match vs anyone. Jake gets no ratings for this.

The selling point is youtube star vs ufc fighter. Obviously

 

[Takamine86]

He called out Conor, Dillon, and Ben. All cherry picks.

Conor no way in hell was going to take that fight.

Conor is the money fight but Conor is also one of the best strikers in MMA.

But what do you not consider a cherry pick from an amateur boxer who came from youtube who is challenging professional MMA fighters?

The new face of the fight game

 

[GOAT]

Askren is about to get embarrassed...again. I've never seen a fighter so eager to ruin their legacy.

 

[MichiganMMA1978]

Was CM Punk already booked? Only one worse at boxing than Askren...

 

[Chillez]

Ben as arguably the worst boxing skills and talent in MMA. This might not end so well for Ben. Nobody wants to see this fight happen.

 

[TheMessiah]

Ben is willing to become even more of a joke

 

[TJ177]

I'll take a lifetime athlete with proven heart over a Youtube guy.

There's a chance he could land on Ben but it seems just as likely that Ben is able to dodge and weave for 3 rounds and totally gas this guy out.

It'll be amusing. I'd prefer Jake Paul to starch Amanda Nunes though, tbh. I'm fairly comfortable saying he'd be going full-tilt instead of taking it easy on her like most guys would.

 

[Antix]

Remember when Ben was retired from One FC as the Welterweight champion, undefeated and Rogan was hyping him as one of the greatest fighters of all time.

Fast forward to the knockout against Masvidal and the horrendous boxing against Maia, now he’s cashing in on a very likely beat down by a youtuber.

Rough.

 

[King Joffery]

Ben Askren is actually an athlete.

Really? He has a dad bod and is in his late 30's.

He has been doing mma what? 10 years? What % of his training was spent on boxing? I'm willing to bet it adds up to a fair bit less that Jake's total time spent focused on boxing.

Great. Probably going to have to see stupid threads about this for months on end now
