A work is just not worth it. People are paying for a legit boxing match. A work destroys their future earnings as boxers.
All i meant is by Joshua is the easier fight, Tank looked tough as fuck, he looked fast and hard to hit without proper boxing, Jake is really good, but i bet his bad habits are still exploitable and Tank’s speed would sleep Jake quickly. I think Jake will use speed and footwork to stay away and frustrate the bigger fighter. If Joshua stays cool,he wins. But if the pressure of an Knockout..then he might get caught by Jake. I would rather fight a bigger person than me at 6’4 212, than a smaller person harder to hit.
the only outcome where anonymous forum nerds will not scream a work is if joshua lamps him in the first 2 rounds… a legit lights out body spasm KO…
anything other than that and the nerds will lose their minds…
just like they always do after every competition…
the pre-event press conference gives me hope it will be legitimate…
for the record, i am not a paul hater at all… i feel like his opponents were hand picked but all of them thought they were going to beat paul up and he is just better at boxing than those who do not box…
duh… it is not rocket science…
with that being said, i feel like the tyson fight was a complete farce…
so again, i am hopeful…
i should add, i do not necessarily disagree with you regarding which fight would have been harder for paul…
but, there is no doubt the joshua fight could have much more dire consequences for paul based on physics alone…
and he still has made the fight happen…

What world is it that an elite HW is an easier fight than fighting a guy who holds a title at 135?!
paul was never going to be able to hit tank…
ever…
this fight is 180 from that…
joshua might have a legit harder time hitting paul than paul him…
this is not rocket science…
You’re right. It isn’t rocket science. A journeyman level cruiser weight will have a harder fight against an elite HW than he will against an elite 135 lb guy.
not rocket science.
ok
Is Joshua elite or top twenty? He is not elite compare to his peers if he needs a two warm-up fights for Tyson Fury.
I don’t see him outside the top 10 in any reputable ranking. Do you see him in a ranking closer to 20 than 10?
As a pro, how do you rate Jake Paul’s skills, is he pro level?
Journeyman at best. We don’t know but the only true boxer he faced he lost to.
And Tommy Fury is about as low-level as a pro-boxer can get. IIRC, all his opponents combined have a losing record.
Nicely said!
Can’t believe you guys think Jake has a chance. AJ isn’t great, but he’s not that bad ![]()
Usyk had trouble with AJ and was visibly wobbled at one point, and dude is elite
And now Jake will use a side step and knock out AJ lol
Joshua carries it for awhile, lands a predictable body shot, Jake goes down, people claim
Jake is way better than people think he is
just out of curiosity…
has there been one jake paul fight where the anonymous forum nerds did not overwhelming claim beforehand he was going to lose horribly???
Nate Diaz
The fix is in, either way
The Dismantling: Anthony Joshua vs. Jake Paul
Date: December 19, 2025
Location: Kaseya Center, Miami, FL
Contract Weight: Joshua (Max 245 lbs) vs. Paul (Heavyweight)
Result Prediction: Anthony Joshua via TKO, Round 8
Pre-Fight Analysis: The Tale of the Tape
This is not a contest of skills; it is a contest of biology. Weight classes exist to protect the smaller man, and on December 19th, that protection is removed.
- Anthony Joshua (The Titan): 6’6", ~245 lbs (cutting down). A true heavyweight who has traded fire with Klitschko, Usyk, and Ruiz.
- Jake Paul (The Tourist): 6’1", ~225-230 lbs (bloated). A cruiserweight relying on “delusional optimism” and a record built on non-boxers.
The Fight: Round by Round
Rounds 1-4: The Illusion of Competence
Round 1: The Reality Check
Timestamp: 00:00 - 03:00
- The Action: Paul comes out twitchy, hyper-alert, bouncing with “unorthodox” movement. Joshua walks to the center, plants his feet, and turns to stone.
- Key Moment: Paul rushes in with a body jab. Joshua parries it casually.
- The Dynamic: Joshua establishes the jab immediately. It’s not a flicker; it’s a piston. Paul tastes it once and realizes his arms are too short to retaliate.
Round 2: The Trap
Timestamp: 04:00 - 07:00
- The Action: Paul’s corner hypes his speed. He circles left, landing a looping overhand right on AJ’s shoulder. The crowd gasps; AJ smiles.
- The Turn: AJ cuts off the ring, trapping Paul in the corner. He leans his 245-pound frame on Paul, smothering him.
- Damage: AJ frames off and rips a short hook to the ribs. Paul audibly grunts. The physical toll of wrestling a true heavyweight begins.
Round 3: The Psychological Break
Timestamp: 08:00 - 11:00
- The Action: Paul’s legs are heavy. His mouth is open. AJ walks through Paul’s “pitty-pat” punches.
- Key Moment: Paul lands a clean jab—his best shot—and AJ eats it without blinking.
- The Shift: Paul realizes his power, which terrified retired MMA fighters, is meaningless here. The fear sets in.
Round 4: The Warning Shot
Timestamp: 12:00 - 15:00
- The Action: AJ stops respecting the threat. He doubles the jab (pop-pop), snapping Paul’s head back.
- Key Moment: AJ feints a right hand. Paul ducks low and blind—reflexively.
- The Impact: BAM. AJ’s uppercut misses the chin but smashes into Paul’s chest. Paul flies into the ropes. He survives, but he looks like a man who just realized he’s locked in a cage with a tiger.
Rounds 5-8: The Deconstruction
Round 5: Bad Intentions
Timestamp: 16:00 - 19:00
- The Action: Joshua stops feeling out. He walks Paul down, hands high.
- Key Moment: Paul throws a desperate haymaker. AJ leans back—barely moving his feet—and fires a straight right down the pipe.
- The Damage: Flush connection on the nose. Blood flows instantly. Paul clinches for dear life, and the ref has to peel AJ off him twice.
Round 6: Survival Mode
Timestamp: 20:00 - 23:00
- The Action: The “Problem Child” is running. Not boxing—fleeing. AJ stalks patiently, cutting off the ring.
- Key Moment: AJ lands a left hook to the liver. Paul freezes. He doesn’t go down, but he stops moving his feet. He is now a stationary target.
Round 7: The Beatdown
Timestamp: 24:00 - 27:00
- The Action: The crowd quiets down. It’s uncomfortable to watch. AJ lands at will: jab, cross, hook.
- The Corner: Paul’s face is swelling rapidly. His corner should throw the towel to save their investment, but pride (and money) keeps them frozen.
Round 8: The Finale
Timestamp: 28:00 - 29:45
- The Setup: AJ decides it’s time to go home. He feints a jab to the body. Paul drops his hands to protect his ribs.
- The Knockout: AJ throws the overhand right—the very punch Paul loves—and it connects behind the ear.
- The Sequence: Paul’s equilibrium vanishes. He stumbles sideways. AJ follows with a left hook that disconnects the kid from reality.
- The Result: Paul hits the canvas. He tries to rise on spaghetti legs, but the referee waves it off.
The Aftermath
- Winner: Anthony Joshua via TKO, Round 8.
- Post-Fight: Joshua doesn’t celebrate wildly; he just nods. It was a day at the office.
- The Lesson: You can buy followers and hype, but you cannot buy a chin, and you certainly cannot buy the respect of the heavyweight division.
I had Ai boxing trainer bot predict the outcome. So your thoughts about too much weight and skill is a correct one @Samoa
Jake is going to win. The world is upside down. Place your bets
