Default Boxing: Jake vs Joshua

Well, are we in for another WWE level event? Or will this fight be legit and Joshua knocks Paul out.

Sounds like all the experts believe this one is a one sided legit fight. I placed a bet on Joshua winning a 4th round TKO. I'm sure there will be some toying with Paul before hand before he lights him up.

Books apparently looking at nine figure loss if Paul wins, so if this is illegitimate it will probably be Joshua winning.

This first fight isn't exactly adding to the feeling of legitimacy, the guy who seems to be set up to win against some patsy is barely moving his feet and yelling "pow" every time he throws, feels very youtube

The combination of it being a fight that goes on your professional record, books taking a 100+ million dollar loss if Jake wins and allegedly nothing fishy in the contracts.. I think it's pretty safe to take Anthony by KO if you're a better.


I have Anthony at +200 to win in the first 2 rounds.

Joshua is -1525 to win. The only question is whether the fight lasts three rounds.

Yes I think that's a great boost. I'd take that prop at +100 if I was 100% sure this was a real fight so at +200 why not.

This whole event has been boring frankly. I have no idea why this event is seen as a co-headliner when people are tuning in to see Paul get tuned up.

Pretty boring event, but man is it good to see Mauro Ranallo again. Dude is a legend. Awesome connection to Calgary too.

The ring is so damn large. Unnecessary.

Paul is doing a good job of not dying, I guess

Just as embarassing as you'd expect. He insists on a massive ring, he runs away the whole fight and when joshua gets close he falls to the matt and grabs his legs

“The fans didn’t pay to see this crap.”

Why hasn’t the referee deducted points?

Paul looks like he's dying and Joshua looks like he's barely broken a sweat

We are about to witness a murder. Ref should stop the bout.

Joshua finally going to the body.

He's clearly holding back cause he could have killed Paul by now.

Joshua letting the fans finish at least one drink during the fight before finishing it, very kind of him.
