Though you don’t believe it Jake Paul was so encouraged by beating a former basketball player on the undercard that they played the lead Mike Tyson and Roy Jones that with just one fight, he believes he is in a position to pursue a career in elite boxing and put his name next to that of today’s best fighters.
We have to say that the youtuber has no chance of making a great sports career, but we also have to recognize that he has everything to make many millions of dollars by being part of billboards that aim more for entertainment than for glory.
But we said that Jake Paul is encouraged and can be confirmed by the fact that he dared to get into the ring with I am Askren, a former UFC fighter and former Bellator and ONE Championship world champion in the world of mixed martial arts; Enough to think I’d lose my mind
Of course, Askren is not at the best time of his sports career, as he said nothing to the UFC in October last year after losing his second straight fight to Brazilian Demian Maia, who gave him a neck dress. Earlier, in July, he was hit with a knee on the head by Jorge Masvidal.
Jake Paul’s pick is still smart if you’re considering a boxing match as Ben Askren’s strength in mixed martial arts lies on the ground and grip as he has never been characterized as a good boxer.
