I heard there was multiple people that were offered money to fight Jake Paul. Bisping said on a podcast that he was offered a contract, and countered the offer for more, and never heard back. That's a fight I can get behind, just because I believe Jake Paul really needs a reality check. Although, I'm not sure how much of his personality is for the cameras, but it seems that a lot of people within that space has claimed he's also very much the same off camera.

Michael Bisping could easily defeat Jake Paul but he is having a problem with the eye sight and it is not a secret anymore and the opponents can come up with a game plan that could hit him around his weaker eye. Jake Paul and Logan Paul made a career with social media presence and his brother became notorious when he posted the video of a dead body and i wont be surprised if they are crazy in real life as well Grin

Ben Askren has gone through humiliations. I guess that is something he's not afraid of facing once again. If only for the sake of money. But no worries, his opponent is no boxer himself.

We can forgive Ben everything, because he turns to be "our guy" Grin

LOL! But yeah, we could give him that forgiveness, although only partially. Wearing a Litecoin shirt is good but wearing a Bitcoin shirt is much better and would be more appreciated. Nevertheless, yes, he could be "our guy" in this fight. I'm now considering placing a bet on him on this one. Grin

However, as I've said, this is just a match purely for fun and money for the promoters and organizers. But I am not even sure of the fun part. Well, it might really be fun if he's going to be wearing gloves printed with Bitcoin logo on them. Grin

Back to the fight then this isnt really that too much in hype compared into those previous match-ups/exhibitions that we had seen but at least they would really be
getting some views for this fight but expected it wont really be high as that.

It will not be a stand alone fight, there will be a fight card and i am expecting them to put together a good card to sell the fight, i expected Ben Askren to return to grappling as there are several competitions around but i was surprised when he choose boxing, may be he wanted to challenge himself after getting humiliated in the UFC for his lack of stand up game.

They needed to do that, as promoters need to find good selections of fight in order to cover in case this fight won't get a lot of crowd to support this two fighters.

Promoters will put along good fights it's given that they are aware that in order to entice viewers the need
of providing additional interesting fights are very important, it support the remaining big event in order
to make sure that they'll be able to make it up for all the expenses.

Though fans are everywhere this two fighters have their own followers and supporters.

Ben, although a ufc fighter he was predominately known for his wrestling, and was probably considered one of the worst strikers. I would probably say many fans of the sport considered him to be one of the worst of the UFC period. Although, hes a tough guy so he can definitely take a punch. I'm just hoping he can beat Paul here, and hopefully in a fairly dominant manner.

This is absolutely brilliant by Jake Paul though, calls out everyone, and their mother, and then picks one of the weaker opponents in Ben. If Jake wins he's now known for the Youtuber who beat a professional MMA fighter. If he loses, he'll be given some leeway due to Ben being a professional fighter. Its a masterclass by Paul, and his team.

Why is this a "Pro Boxing Match"? I know that Jake Paul is making his way into boxing, still, I don't see him lasting in that path but his opponent is an MMA fighter whose punching skills is not that great even inside the octagon. I don't know who will win here but even though Ben had a lot of matches than Jake, I think Jake has a higher chance of winning this match.

Jake Paul is not looking to be world champion in the sport of boxing, he only does celebrity fights that attracts a big crowd and that is the same path his brother is following as well and they are making millions by putting together these fights.
Not sure whether this will be a sanctioned bout, as long as people like these kind of spectacles we will see these match ups.

Is this serious? Ben Askren talk too much about the match latelay even in some interviews this fight will only take 1 round for sure and Jake Paul will be down anyways it is just for money even he knows even the match is not yet started his gonna lose the fight we'll i can't judge him that match but you can see the credibility of the fighter if you are watching it and you can tell in early even you got practice or so on you cannot just make a miracle in the battle but however good luck for both of them.

We will hear that kind of statement from either or both fighters, that's normal, they are selling the fight so they like to talk some trash talk or something that will caught the attention of the viewers, because you shared it here, I can say that the strategy is very effective, you buying subscription of this fight?

He has a good punch against a weak fighter like Robinson I don't know to someone like Ben Asken, it's different when you are hitting an inexperienced fighter to a well-expeirenced fighter if Paul has a good punching power he will have to find a way to connect it against Ben Asken who is very agile, this is going to be an interesting match. whoever wins here will have a good career and will be back in the limelight both fighters need this win.

I don't know any of the backstories about this fight but all I know now is that Ben Asken is representing those fighters that are so annoyed and got hot-blooded that want to face Jake Paul on the ring. In fact, if you will be looking through the internet, there are a lot of fighters that want to fight Jake Paul, he's been after professional athletes and even taunted McGregor for a fight.

This fight is going to be a bit more interesting for me after I heard that Jake Paul is working with Jorge Masvidal in preparation for boxing with Ben Askren.
People who follow MMA know that Masvidal defeated Ben Akren with great KO after just few seconds of the fight in first round.

I guess Triller company has a deeper reason why they arranged this fight but what is sure is, they are doing it to earn some money for sure especially that this kind of fight will generate a huge amount of money if it will click to the viewers.

Though I am not so sure whether the Paul and Askren fight will generate the same profit to Mike and Jones match as they are not that well known. But let's see whether Ben can also make a good performance in boxing ring.

Isnt that obvious? With all of those exhibition fights that we had seen, including to those fighters that had been long retired and just came back to the ring to make out some money.

We will continue to see fights like this and this kind of arrangements and set-ups when these organizations do sees that they can really milk out money from it, not only to the boxers/players itself
but also into the management.

Back to the fight then this isnt really that too much in hype compared into those previous match-ups/exhibitions that we had seen but at least they would really be
getting some views for this fight but expected it wont really be high as that.

Not surprise to see not such a big gap in odds. Thought there will be an abyss.
Thanks to 7788bitcoin found out that his opponent has a sport background and, I hope, has enough stamina for the whole distance. As Ben is not a heavy puncher, we might see a fight that last longer than few rounds and there might be an upset in it.

I can remember how McGreggor asking Mayweather for a fight. And now, Askren has been also desperate after a quick loss vs Masdival, yeah it probably of the same ending.

I look forward also that ben would win but the problem is he won't have a boxing skill. He might good in MMA but boxing is a big difference and that 3 months in preparation is not long enough to develop and put him in a firm. If he could extend their fight schedule, much better and probably have a chance to win.

Nice odds, seems like a fair odds for me, but I like Jake Paul to win here and I believe that this will go to distance.

The latest odds here,

Jake Paul -240
Ben Askren +190

https://www.top10sportsbettingsites.net/betting-specials/jake-paul-vs-ben-askren-preview

It seems, Jake Paul here will become an underdog, and obviously, his opponent has got more supporters than Jake.
Ben Askren will most likely who will win this match but who knows, there are too many changes that will happen in this fight.

Is everyone place their bets?

I want Ben Askren to win here.

I am not getting salty about Jake Paul's record here or the fact that he's fighting an MMA Fighter well known for his grappling and wrestling skills. I just wanted to see the look at Jake Paul's face when he was knocked out or lose in this match. He's been so confident in the past months because of the knockout that he made but I think someone will sweep his smirk out of his face in the near future.

There are reports and articles that point Paul as the favorite here, this is very interesting considering that he is facing a tough fighter in Asken, Ben Asken cannot add more humiliations, this the biggest humiliation he will ever receive if ever Jake Paul beats him, his two wins is against a very low-level fighter so I expect ben Asken to go all out here and beat Jake Paul.

Btw, Ben Askren says he will win by TKO in the 7th round, and Jake Paul quicker than Jorge Masvidal. It's just a bunch of conversations that could spark up more conversations with their claims.

After his retirement may be he was doing some hard boxing lessons to have this kind of confidence Cheesy

. Jake Paul can knock out Ben Askren and if the fight goes to the distance i will be surprised. I have seen all his old fights in MMA and i have never seen Ben in a stand up battle.

Quote from: crwth on January 27, 2021, 10:18:37 PM

Maybe let's capitalize on betting on this one? Or it's too hard to predict?

I will stay away from betting and will watch the fight, Ben was a high level MMA fight during his prime but you cannot say that about Jake Paul other than his entertaining fights.
