Paul is making boxing a joke, no one ever heard of Andre August til he announced this fight. For all we know he just paid this guy in advance $50.000 to sleep whenever he do his signature move.
While I agree that both the Paul's are giving boxing a bad name, someone must be enjoying watching cause they do ok in the PPV market. It's really no different than McGregor and Mayweather, people found a way to get paid with some popular figures going at it. The only way it stops is if people stop paying for it, but thats not going to happen.

I don’t think Jake Paul is giving boxing a bad name. He’s putting in the work and matching up against better and better opponents. I won’t be surprised in another couple years when he gets a legitimate shot at a title.

Robert Garcia the boxing trainer stated that you can have a lot of wins and a title shot if you have a good promoter and you pick your fights, you can have a title shot and that's possible with Jake Paul, after his loss against Fury he seems to cherry-pick fights now, he loses his momentum because of that loss and he cannot afford to have a second loss, Jake Paul will lose his reputation and his PPV appeals.

Quote
I looked up his opponent as well. Dude seems like a legit boxer. While I’d prefer to see Jake beat up celebrities, you can’t hate on him for doing his best to have a legitimate professional boxing career.
He is a legit boxer but with bad records, not a record that is main event-worthy it's obvious who's going to win here, good pick for Jake Paul and a risky fight too if Andre pulls up an upset.

I cannot consider Andre a top-level fighter even if he has more wins and more knockouts than Jake Paul all his opponents are level C fighters and two of them just debuted and one of the fighters he KO   Jeremie Parks has this record 6 25 3, imagine this guy loss 25 times I don't think this Andre can be considered a Polish fighter than Jake Paul, Paul wants to take his boxing seriously but he's fighting level who he can easily beat.
If he wants the boxing community to take him seriously why not fight fighters who are in the top 15 so he can rank up if he beat these kinds of fighters.
Exactly why I say he is giving boxing a bad name. He's not paying his dues and working his way up in the rankings. I'm not saying his fights aren't semi entertaining, I'm saying he is not going about it the right way. He shouldn't get any sort of title shot because of his celebrity and record against non ranked opponents.

People always hoping on boxing influencer win

Influencer boxer, is always challenged or fighting a fighter with a few years off from boxing. It's always like that, since the opponent not fighting in a few years and jake still young + has good stamina.

If you not hear it, I guess the stunt marketing is not started yet ~XD

Well, these influencer boxers are considered as amateurs, so it's normal that they will take on fighters that haven't fought for years to get that 'even' footing in the fight. To me, it doesn't sound so exciting, as I've never heard of the guy. Probably just Jake Paul and his team's marketing to keep the momentum on the Jake's side - striking the iron while it's hot.

Probably, but it seems that Jake Paul are into boxing, I mean he is fighting professional boxers. They might not have a good record, but still if Jake doesn't have a good training, he could lose here as Andre August could still have the skills to overcome if Jake comes here flat and believed on the idea that he can just steamroll this boxers.

This will probably have a mediocre viewership count. Only a handful of people has heard of the guy, and the public is slowly noticing that the Paul brothers are just challenging opponents that are way past their prime, or someone who hasn't even achieved it. They're just really that good in marketing fights that's why they're still profiting from it.

Admit it or not, there are still fans that is willing to watch this kind of fights and that's why Jake Paul and his company are continuing to make this kind of fight. It doesn't make sense if they are into this business without making money. He put up his own company just to get everything legal in my opinion and as I have said, to generate income for him.

Jake Paul's profile says American professional boxer and he should be ranked in an org like WBC or WBA but he isn't anywhere in any of the boxing organizations. He picks his own opponent either an old retired UFC fighter or an inactive boxer. He made a mistake fighting Tommy though so he wouldn't make such mistake from now on. The fact that it's his promotion and he pays for these guys to fight him, he should be winning.

Not anymore.

Most of them already have a few fight, would be nice if they can fight active fighters not a fighter who already not fighting a few years. Just matching the total match of each other. That's would be really nice.

The good things about these influencer, they can really hype it up for the match.

I'll save everyone's time, here is August boxrec:

https://boxrec.com/en/box-pro/651075



Obviously, he is not that active that's why we haven't heard anything from him and he is also age 35.

So I guess this is going to be an easy fight for Paul even though this dude is professional boxer and fought at Cruiser weight. And we will see how Jake Paul is going to hype this fight.
Although we have here the co-founder of their company already promoting this fight.  Grin

Is this real? I haven’t heard anything about it, which would be odd for a Jake Paul fight. I’ve never heard of his opponent either. I guess maybe Jake is trying to get another win on his record. Pretty common for fighters to do that sort of thing on their way to a lot of wins, but Jake typically fights known people so this is a little out of character.

Pretty sure it’s official, buddy.

I’ve never heard of Jake Paul’s opponent here if I’m honest. He has only fought once in the last 4 years so really, Paul should go into this as a big favourite.
