Jake Paul vs Tyron Woodley II MEGATHREAD *Locked

[TheComputerGuy]

He is a you tuber KOing UFC champions. He isn't some top level boxer. He is 100% embarrassing the UFC.

 

[KAZSoliloquy]

i mean, he’s not wrong lol

 

[KAZSoliloquy]

You brought up guys on the undercard. They aren't fighting Paul or getting paid as if they were. I believe Paul and Nate Robinson had some sort of beef on social media. I don't pay attention to all that. Maybe he's broke too as a lot of athletes are no matter how much money they make but the NBA certainly pays well enough that if they take care of their money you don't have to submit to spectacles like that.
It doesn't change the fact that all these former and current UFC fighters are doing it because they never got paid well. Funny that Woodley's an exception. He was stupid with money but he's said fighting Paul was the biggest purse of his career. That's what's sad about it.

the nba pays well NOW. it took many years of collective bargaining and an unprecedented TV deal to achieve that. nate robinson probably made 15M his whole career and lost half of that to taxes. not like the guy was making lebron money

 

[Ancient Warrior]

Lmao first he was a no body picking on nba players, now he's a weight bully that picks on mma champions lmao.

Ok Jake.

At this point, UFC might need to prevent these fights happening because a single defeat is becoming a full blown routing of the troops.
Jesus this is becoming ridiculous. And worst of all is to know that Jake Paul fully knows what he's doing.
He's proven that even a little focused boxing training is enough to defeat MMA fighters who haven't focused exclusively on boxing.
So any fight against MMA fighters, no matter how fresh the MMA fighter is, is a fight that Jake Paul will probably win.

It's quite clear that the boxing reputation of MMA fighters won't be the same after this.

 

[Number 8]

He did
Dana has no other choice other to send him Ngannou now

lel you don't hate Paul THAT much

Not really. There are size limits to everything. There's a reason he's not calling out Silva or Vitor. He'd get demolished.

 

[Ancient Warrior]

I’m surprised at the few people agreeing with him.

He beat up two retired wrestlers.

 

[El Fernas]

It would never happen because Jake couldn't rig it, so he'd avoid Israel at all cost.

And Israel is a very good trash-talker and could take whatever Jake has and dish it out in turn.

The fight wouldn't happen so Dana might as well offer Israel to hear Jake's excuses as to why... everyone could see him run.

Its in Jake's best interest to call his bluff on it, fighting an still active UFC world champion? He is expected to lose, it will sell more than enough so its worth the loss for him, imho Jake would call Dana's bluff on it and now Dana would either allow another of his fighters to go over boxing or keep ignoring Jake Pauls trash.

Adesanya would make for a great build up and fight, but simply it wont happen, either option is good for Jake Paul, Nate or Masvidal probably beat him but they are huge draws, Adesanya might not be the biggest draw, but he is an active champion, is ok to lose to him.

 

[ClosetVitorFan]

Paul is smart. Hes like give me someone who will challenge me. Connor seems to have a pretty lenient contract so I imagine Conor can work something out with the UFC. But if Conor loses to Paul. It's over.

 

[nublood]

Can anybody explain what calling out these UFC fighters is supposed to prove?? MMA fighters are not boxers. SO WHAT if you get the better of Conor, Nate, Masvidal, etc in a boxing match. That proves very little if anything. If he really wanted to embarrass Dana, he would step into the Octagon and face any one these guys in a MMA bout. Jake is a circus clown joke. He's rich though so there's that. lol

 

[Cuttyrock]

Mas or Nate is good fights that I think can beat him

so dana can pay him $100K/$100K? gtfo lmao he’s already planning a jump to MMA and raking in tens of millions knocking out UFC fighters under his own promotion.

 

[froggyluv]

A high ranking UFC champ and MMA champ are expected to be worlds better at striking on just about every level than a Youtube punk

 

[Juzie]

Sadly he is embarrassing boxing far more than UFC.

He is the biggest star and talent of the current generation of boxing to the point where he had T Fury (the best heavyweight in boxing and twice Jake's size) running for the hills, and he got rocked by a freaking over the hill welterweight UFC wrestler.

 

[StoneColdSteveAustin]

He should grow a set of balls and box Anderson Silva. He only boxes undersized fighters.

 

[rtodd]

Well considering Jake Paul keeps calling out wrestlers that fight at 170 or smaller and he walks around at 220ish he shouldn't be that proud of winning.

Calling out Conor who's a striker that had his most success at 145 wouldn't be that big of an accomplishment.

Why not call out Israel Adesanya or Robert Whitaker someone closer to his weight class that's actually a striker.

who's he going to call out next Ronda?

 

[WhiteMousse]

He should be fighting people in his class. Middleweights like Silva and Usman

 

[BEATDOWNS]

Whats with the 5 time champion? Woodley won it once and defended like 3 times if we count the draw, i dont recall Canelo being introduced as a 20 times or something world champion.

Changes by the month. Anderson Silva outbox Julio César Chávez Jr. who was 10 years younger with 59 pro boxing fights. The problem is cunts like Woodley and Askren volunteer to box and lie to the public about their boxing abilities selling wolf tickets. If UFC wrasslers weren't liars saying they can compete in a marquess of queensberry boxing match then this wouldn't be a thing. Jake calling these goofs on their bullshit.
