Hard watch that. Jake Paul still can't box for shit, yet Tommy's so bad, Paul still caused him problems.
That ref was a clown, let them fight ffs, any wrestling and you start docking points. He seemed to deliberately want to run the clock down.

Poor fight, doubt I’ll bother with the rematch. Glad I didn’t pay for it
Fury the better boxer, used his jab well, should've doubled up on it. I was entertained.
Reading this thread, I really do believe this is a case of ignorance being bliss.
they are getting non-boxing fans into watching boxing, my daughters house in Uni all watched it, the 1st fight they have ever seen
Yeah, and how many watching a "fight" between a social media "influencer" and a reality TV "star" are then going to watch actual boxing, with actual boxers?
The "fight" was god awful, a ridiculous split decision to set up a second fight, which Paul will "win" to set up a third fight.
None of them, apart from those that are already boxing fans, but we all knew this.
I'm not against the celebrity circus if I'm honest, it has it's place in terms of entertainment value as last night clearly showed. What frustrates me is some of the nonsense that goes with it, such as talk about giving these bums an actual ranking, or Jake Paul calling out Carl Froch ffs...
Neither deserves an official ranking of any sorts based on last night's performance, and Froch could have buried both of them at the same time, in the same ring.
I was hoping that Jake Paul might have improved somewhat, and given us a better fight, but sadly that clearly wasn't the case. He managed to make Tommy Fury look like a boxer. That's some accomplishment to be fair, but not in a good way
To be fair Carl Froch is desperate for attention and Jake Paul didnt actively go looking to call Froch out it was the other way around if anything. I doubt Jake Paul had much knowledge about Froch until he was played interviews of Froch slagging him off and put on the spot.
Paul probably earned more last night than Froch did in his entire career. Good luck to him.
I doubt it.
To be fair, Hilts also has a point about Froch being desperate for attention too, I'm not sure that he called Jake Paul out, but he definitely made it clear that if Paul beat Fury, he'd take the fight.
In all fairness, these guys, such as Froch and that whole older brigade... They must be pretty pissed off at how much these clowns are making these days. I can understand why Froch would want in, even at 45. Easy money in the bank.
