Should AJ fight Jake Paul?

[Master]

Nakisa Bidarian, co-founder of Most Valuable Promotions and Paul's manager, said he had no concerns about the fight on safety grounds.

"I don't think it's reckless in any way shape or form," he told BBC Sport.

"Jake's in a much better position than a lot of fights which happen in boxing on a regular basis. I think he has a great shot.

"AJ is big, strong, but slower. He's more vulnerable to Jake's movement. In my mind this is more sanctionable than many fights in the sport of boxing."

On Friday 19 December, heavyweight star Joshua will fight the YouTuber-turned-boxer at Miami’s Kaseya Center.

The bout will not be an exhibition but rather a professional contest, meaning the result will go on each man’s record and a knockout is possible.

However, the heavyweight fight is scheduled for eight three-minute rounds, making it shorter than most main-event matches on the men’s side of the sport. Furthermore, Joshua will be capped at 245lb.

Yet each man will wear 10oz gloves rather than any larger, more forgiving pairs,

can't blame AJ for cashing in here - let's be honest we'd do the same

but how does this one go. We all know Paul should be out of there within sixty seconds. If he does that he shows what a farce it is and how the public have been conned.

If he doesn't do it and carries him a few rounds he's damned and tarnished his legacy - and will be rightly villified.

So how the hell does this go

A KO in two rounds as he did with Ngannou.

The first round for the casuals and the second for the realists.

Fury did the same circus show when he postponed his contest against Usyk whilst he was heavyweight champion.

AJ is doing it after getting smashed in 5 rounds and not fighting in 18 months. This is not even a comeback fight. Just wrapping his gloves and getting paid very well for less than a sparring session.

This will be a fun event enjoy it on your Netflix subscription and treat it as a early Christmas present.

Boxing.is.done. From every single point of view APART FROM MONETARY, this fight should never go ahead.
I don’t care if Paul puts in “a heroic performance” or he gets KO’d inside a minute.
And anyone who tries to psycho-analyse how this fight will go , or how it went, is wasting their time.
Who do I blame?
AJ - not really. Be honest , if you were in his shoes , would you turn it down?
Jake Paul - Nope . You have to respect and admire his business nous and his bottle.
The Boxing governing bodies - Fucking too right! Bunch of Spineless, corrupt useless cunts that are hell bent on selling the sport to the dogs.
Eddie Hearn - Absofuckinglutely!!! What a 2 faced cunt he has turned out to be! Completely slated the Tank Davies fight , yet this is no better.
Complete disregard for Safety, what would he not try to sell?
And yet he’s trying to sell it like he’s doing everyone a favour because “AJ can finally rid the sport of AJ.”
Do you know what I would prefer to see? Jake Paul v Eddie Hearn. I would love to see Paul knock the cunt out, that would be epic.
