Wait, this is the guy Ben is going to box?
I tapped out 31 seconds in, damn!
I didn't understand what Ben was talking about as I thought Jake and Logan were the same person, so I was wondering why they didn't bring up the Floyd bout that was supposed to happen...
Well shit, I'll just watch the Frank Mir vs USS Cunningham because I like my freakshows and I was originally happy about the Antonio Tarver bout (glad that Mir gets to compete, have fun, and make some $$$
I just hope he doesn't get brain damage from that), but I didn't really care about the Askren fight.
Now I now I'm going to have to check it out, just to see Ben destroy this Conor wannabe.
Mir vs Cunningham is a MMA vs Boxing bout, but Jake vs Ben isn't: Jake isn't a boxer
(I've watched some highlights from his 2 bouts against a fellow youtuber and Nate Robinso, and Jake doesn't seem like anything special)
, he has no real advantage over Ben, even if Ben's striking is terrible for an elite level MMArtist, there's still an immense gap in experience.
I saw that Freddie Roach gave Ben a strategy, that should be more than enough.
I've always been an Askren "semi-fanboy" cause I love my wrestlers, but then he annoyed me after the Robbie Lawler fight which led to me rooting for Masvidal for that one time, but now I'm back 100% on the Funkywagon
If Jake becomes and even bigger favorite when the fight approaches, I might even drop a small bet on Askren.
It will depend on how my small UFC 260 bet on Miocic will do this week end I suppose.
(N'Gannou still being the favorite in this rematch is just too good an opportunity to pass)
