You have to give jake paul credit… he seems to be able to handle the fight game he just doesnt have a lifetime of fighting experience like most fighters… but he has the money and time to dedicate to the craft. Yes he isnt as skilled as a top 15 boxer or something but you can tell he is putting in the work. He has also smartly picked his opponents.

Exactly. I don't know why it's so hard to give the guy some credit, and I don't see where going 10 rounds with a Nate Diaz disproves anything.

All the same dudes who are posting "lol" at me saying Paul doesn't get enough respect on the MSB are the same dudes who also thought Nate Robinson would pummel him.

Then thought Woodley would beat him.

Then thought for sure that Silva would beat him.

It is what it is...lol

Bingo, this


And when I say he doesn't get the credit he deserves, most of the MSB don't agree with this...and like I said, also hilariously thought Diaz would beat Paul.

That’s what I meant. both Mcgregor and Paul know what kind of payday that would be for them

Jake is as much of a boxer as Logan is a wrestle


I'm guessing you've never seen Logan in the WWE, because he's pretty fricking legit. True wrestling fans are even coming to his defense.

I haven't watched WWE since like the 4th or 5th grade, but I've seen the clips of Logan Paul matches and the things he is doing are pretty unreal.

The first couple of rounds every time Jake would hit Diaz he moved him with his punches. Whenever Diaz was hitting Jake, it was almost like he was hitting him with a feather pillow.

The only way diaz would win this fight would have been a late round ko because jake was gassed… diaz has no power and his best assets as a fighter dont work in boxing unless the other side is out of shape. Jake wasnt outnof shape and has a good chin.

Let’s be real, you and I both could have taken those punches from Diaz tonight. And I am a Diaz fan

Logan Paul is legitimately a top 5 wrestler in WWE right now....

some people just can't deal with it. they're going to hate on them no matter what.

He always hits like that. If Diaz had actually faced an above average boxer, he would have been really hurt. I posted in another thread, but Diaz doesn't exactly dominate the UFC.

Diaz seems like a tough mfer.


He’s the toughest person I’ve ever seen.

He has the best cardio and chin out of any fighter I’ve seen.

I’ve seen guys hit him a lot harder than Paul did tonight and he shrugs it out.

Tonight was the first time i’ve never seen him bleed.

There’s a saying…


Nate doesn’t lose a fight.

He runs out of time.

People are crazy if they dont respect what he has done. Just think about training for boxing just a year or two then getting in the ring with 3 guys like woodley, silva, and diaz. Dude is definitely super confident. Its a hustle but you gotta respect it.

He’ll never get respect fighting old MMA fighters. You want respect? Fight people in your craft.

He fought one (unranked) boxer, lost, then ran back to his comfort zone.

As for Diaz, I think he was banking on Paul gassing out like he did in the Fury fight. Unfortunately for him (and us), it didn’t happen.

It kinda did but a little too late.

I had Diaz winning the final 3 rounds. But he also didn't hit hard enough to ever recall hurt Paul.

and this is EXACTLY why the Paul brothers are winning

the dude is a fricking Disney-star/Youtuber ... yet he's completely sweeping and mopping the floor with these former UFC fighters.

MAYBE if the UFC didn't celebrate losses as "victories" then we wouldn't even have this fight tonight..... Nate Diaz had 13-losses on his MMA record going into this fight... absolutely pathetic.

Diaz is a garbage fighter, but because he's thuggin' it and lovin' it ... he's a GOAT in the UFC lol.

Diaz threw some good punches when he was on the inside. But boxing skills were surely lacking. No doubt he's a tough mo fo!

Props to Jake. He did what he had to do...landed a nice shot in the 1st to the temple ; and flash knockdown 5th. Smart back pedaling not getting too tangled with Nate

QUESTION ...The large zits on Paul hope he's not doing to designer undetectable roids.?? I know he trains hard.
