Topic: Jake Paul VS Ryan Bourland Cruiserweight 8 Rounds March 2 (Read 331 times)

this was a very funny fight, in the first minutes Ryan Bourland was moving well, he looked like he would last many rounds, he avoided attacking jak paul probably because his intention was to be able to tire jake paul quickly because he must have He realized early on that Jake's punches were very strong and that getting too close to Jake was very dangerous, which is why he kept his distance and when he threw a punch it seemed like he was doing it out of fear, so much so that he lowered his head and didn't pay attention. where his punches were going, I don't know how much preparation time he had for this fight and how long he's been fighting, but it was clear how he wasn't in good shape in this fight.

He used dirty tricks like holding Jake's body for a while to enjoy a few seconds and rest, the funny thing is that it hadn't been long since the fight had started and he was already showing signs of tiredness, after that he recovered and it seemed to me that He started to fight well, he was already throwing punches without lowering his head and it even seemed like the fight had gained balance between both fighters but he started to make the mistake of staying pressed into the corners and Jake started attacking quickly and with a lot of force whenever he cornered him. , this started to make Ryan Bourland very tired, it was visible that Jake's punches were affecting Ryan Bourland a lot and in a few minutes the fight ended with Jake's victory. In my opinion, Jake's next step should be a fight against a professional fighter who is at his peak

Nothing impressive when you're up against somebody like Bourland. Dominating against somebody who is expected to lose 99.9% isn't impressive. It's therefore not a good win. A good win is a win that results after a real and fair battle and against a fighter who is equally ready and prepared and in perfect condition.


AJ is more after redemption. AJ doesn't have a reason to evade Usyk. He badly needs to get back at him. And Usyk is the champion. That privilege to avoid opponents doesn't belong to Joshua. He's the loser. It is Usyk's privilege to be choosy, not Joshua's.

There are still boxers who are up for legacy though. AJ I think is one who had not tried evading Usyk whom he fought twice and lost also.

It's the way to go for Jake just as they say choose your enemy wisely and build up records for bigger fights. As of this time, I don't think Jake can fight someone in the cruise weight like Mike Perez, or Cheavon Clarke and they are not even in the top 10. This career is not an easy path but there is a huge reward to makiing money.

First-round KO by Jake Paul... That was impressive, but we can see his opponent seemed not in condition, as we can see. Still, a good win, though. We can't take this away from him, as Jake Paul really showed that he can also be dominant like this. So for sure, they are already cooking up a new opponent for him this year, probably not someone like Ryan Bourland who didn't really come to win. After all, odds justify why Jake Paul was the heavy favorite, so no surprise here.

Jake is just taking the traditional boxer path and scooping up some wins for his record between lining up big fights. I don’t blame him. This is just the state of boxing right now. He did easily win this one though and I can’t imagine anyone wanting to pay to see that. Another KO for Jake Paul is a good thing though. Next…

The fight is forgettable this is one of Jake Paul's easy fights, Bourland did not come to fight, he just waited for Jake to knock him out, Bourland's skill did not show up to this fight, it's an easy fight for Jake Paul, hopefully, this will be his last fight against low rated fighters, he is in the winning track after that Tommy Fury loss if he is that serious in making a name in professional boxer then a fight against fighters on the top should be sought.

I don't think Canelo will pay attention to this guy he is not on his level and a big insult to Canelo's status if he agreed to fight Jake Paul, he has to prove himself first and this fight did not prove that he can beat champions in any division.
Jake Paul will never be relevant on the top-level competition he is good at fighting wash-up MMA and low-level fighters to make him look good.

The flabby 35 year old oil rig worker stood no chance as Jake Paul gets the easy first round stoppage. Perhaps now Jake Paul can step up his level of competition but I wouldn’t hold my breath. This clown called out Canelo in the post-fight interview and accused him of ducking him. It’s all for clout, there is no chance he fights someone with the potential to severely hurt him. To his credit, the tough guy shtick still works at getting him enough attention to keep this circus act going a while longer.

Ok ok. I just wanted to point, that not all great fighters have big names in the beginning of their carrier. Everyone has to start with something. You cant get a final boss on the start of the first level. Jake has ambitions, he wants to become champ, he makes boxing popular, but people boo him for that. That is what I dont understand. He train, prepares for the fight - people wish him to be KOed and always cheer his opponent. For me it does not matter if he wins or looses, if he trashtalks or not. That is the way how people now sell fight, and at least do something, while others sit their asses on couch and envy. It is better Jake to do boxing, then film stupid videos for YouTube.

You were the one who brought up Mike Tyson and tried to draw comparisons to the start of his career and Jake Paul’s. I only pointed out the differences to show how absurd that statement was.

Naoya Inoue is someone who fought highly ranked fighters early in his career but that’s also a dumb comparison because Jake Paul isn’t a serious boxer. He can only really be compared to other freak shows like Butterbean.

Jake isn’t a late starter, he’s just shown no desire whatsoever to accomplish anything meaningful in the sport aside from making a lot of money knocking out bums and fighting influencers. He’s already trying to build hype for a Tommy Fury rematch and a KSI fight. Not really the path of someone trying to become a world champion — although, with how corrupt the sport is, it wouldn’t be surprising if at some point he became a paper champion, which is all he can truly aspire to be.

The kid had a late start of professional boxer career, so what? The times when Tyson has started his career and current days, these two are two different generations. If you want to make such weird comparisons, then Jake has earned for 9 first fights more than Tyson for his first 9 fights. Jake is more successful boxer. End of story. Still want to make comparisons like that?

The kid once told that he plans to become a champion. People understood it like "I am going to become champion tomorrow". And start to drawn him in shit. That it is impossible, he is to late to start, he fights trash. Show me a professional boxing champion, whos first 5 opponents were top ranked and he has become a champ in few years.

Mike Tyson fought 27 times in his first 18 months as a professional and went on to become the youngest heavyweight champion ever at 20 years old. Jake Paul is 27 years old and has been a pro for 4 years. He is at a stage where he should at least be facing somebody in the top 15 rankings, instead he’s fighting an unranked no-name semi-retired club fighter from North Dakota.

Wait for Jake to build a boxing record. I dont understand why there is so much have on him. People judge him for his past, but pay little attention to what he makes now. Look on him not from YouTuber point of view, but as a boxer. People say he fight only trash. Well, he has 9 fights so far. Take for example Mike Tyson. Quite an icon in boxing community. Take his 9 first fights. All no-names for me. Who are they? I dont know. Maybe they were even more trash than Askren, Woodley, Silva, Diaz.

People are done with this problem child. All the fights and drama he once acted to grab attention from the public have been done. He overdid it and now he is fighting a nobody so there is no surprise this fight is not listed on betting sites.  At first, I thought Bourland could match him due to his boxing record.

What Jake needs now is a debut in MMA since he'd been preparing for it. With this, I think he can impress the UFC fighters that he's the one crossing but he should fight someone who still has the youth.

He is a different case than Jake Paul since he's actually a champion of another fighting organization and is still within his prime years. Francis high ranking is a joke as far as boxing goes and everybody knows that. I think the only justification why he was placed there is the one knockdown he scored.

This is a fight that seemingly nobody cares about. I’ve only seen one ad for it on social media since it was announced and the big news today is that Jake Paul and KSI will supposedly be the next fight. Seems a bit odd to be promoting the next fight the week before his current one. I guess they aren’t expecting much from this weekend.

What about Francis Ngannou then, who fought only once in heavyweight division, his opponent was current champ (how that for a start of a career) and he is ranked 10 already. One loss against champ and ranked #10. Can you believe in that? And he is about to face boxer who is ranked #2.

As to Jake Paul - I dont care about his opponent anymore. It is enough that he fights more often than other boxers and building his record. He had to start with something anyway. Was it old and retired mma fighter or youtuber. Does not matter if it helps him to go up on a ranking ladder. Right now he is fighting no-names, trash, low ranked guys. But all great fighters have such opponent on the start of their career.

There's that but he should be a better match up than those washed-up MMA fighters and other youtubers who just learned how to box. I think it's a disrespect to the boxing community to let Jake take on a top 15 with just a few fights under his belt. He should climb the ladder just like everybody else. Just because he's controversial doesn't meant he gets to pass other boxers that's waiting in line before him.

Obviously, this guy has run out of choices and he is now facing some declines regarding his view so he will just take some offers to stay on the top list. They used to be promoting their own show and now they are likely trying this new strategy so that they will be recognized by true boxing fans. this is just another market strategy because his last fight was not really good and few are interested in it. In this case, people will forcely watch them because they are looking forward to watching the main event and they don't have a choice but to watch Jake Paul's boring boxing skills before the main card bout.

I have seen the boxer Paul in the ring for a long time, he has had a good career during his matches, Diaz, Anderson are MMA stars he has fought, only yesterday in 2023 he lost against Tommy Fury, the rest had good results, I think the boxing this time was between Paul vs. Bourland, could be a new history for Paul in achieving world boxing champion, I'm sure Paul will show his best and professionalism to defeat Bourland in the future.

I think Paul has a good chance at his current age, in terms of his achievements in his boxing career, I think Bourland is greater than any classy boxer Paul has ever fought in the boxing ring, Even though Bourland has a record far from Paul and even though Bourland is nicknamed a Golden Gloves boxer, this doesn't affect Paul in future boxing. I hope this fight will be a professional boxing match and new history for Paul.

so much for his plans to be a champ since Jake tried fighting someone with a name. if it's not undefeated i guess he'd settle for undisputed by fighting weaker opponents of his choice. i think he has to create another boxing federation for it to come true. he already created a boxing promotion which is the Most Valuable Promotions. its time to create his boxing federation and hail himself a champ.

i actually couldn't see the fight on stake. but the above odds seem very obvious.

He has 17 wins with 6 KOs, not really a heavy puncher based on his record. I guess Jake Paul will be able to handle him and might have an impressive win here since, based on the highlights you showed, Ryan Bourland is an aggressive boxer, which Jake Paul loves to counter. Comparing him to the boxer that defeated Jake Paul in a close contest, I think Tommy Fury was the better fighter, and since Jake Paul has already improved after his first loss, I'm expecting him to finish this fight with an early KO.

Here is highlight of some of his fight
RYAN BOURLAND HIGHLIGHTS HD

he has a good offense but Jake Paul can easily counter that because Ryan is not a hard puncher his style is very amateur so he will not pose a challenge against Jake Paul this is going to be a relatively easy fight for Jake Paul its another bounce fight on his loss from Fury.
Jake Paul should fight a bigger name, not someone who just knows boxing, someone who can give him a good fight and is popular among in the boxing community.

Honestly, I'm not sure if Bourland is a good boxer, but since Jake Paul is not really a natural boxer, I'm thinking maybe Bourland's experience will be a big factor for him to succeed in this fight. However, when I see the betting odds, I'm a little doubtful about the chance of Bourland because bookies wouldn't list him as an underdog if they know he has a good chance of winning. Most likely, there is information we don't know that they do, and we should find that out. Maybe I will still proceed with betting on Bourland to win, but I will likely minimize the bet though.

When will people stop laughing at Jake Paul opponents and over him in general? He used to be that youtube freak, but look at him now. He is having more professional boxing fights per year than most of other professional boxers. Why people laugh when he talked about he wanted a belt ? He is slowly building his record. Or you thought that he will face top5 boxers instantly? Or you thought that others boxer, who later became champs or are champs now, did not have no-name, not famous, less experienced, retired boxers in the start of their career?

Another cannon fodder type of opponent for Jake Paul to feast on and pad his record with an easy win. At least he isn’t fighting washed up MMA fighters anymore and has moved on to part-time boxers. This should just be a tune-up before he rematches Tommy Fury. These types of fights won’t give Jake credibility amongst knowledgable boxing fans, but his fanbase isn’t exactly known for having the brightest minds.

As long as he can continue to generate revenue we will eventually see either the WBA or WBC give him an opportunity to fight for a title. As we have seen recently, merit is secondary to these sanctioning bodies who place profit above all else.

Nobody knows Ryan Bourland. He is not a good boxer. Just like Andre August, he is nothing but a food here. His only role is to feed Jake Paul's boxing win record and boxing dreams. Let's not mind Bourland's announcement. He is only speaking to gain attention and to make it appear as if he is a solid opponent or the match is exciting. Let's not mind his record either. That is a total garbage.

Bourland is a big patsy. His last win isn't fresh. It happened in 2022 against a man who has more loses than wins. That three-fight winning streak is also garbage. 2 of that 3 fights happened when, 6 years ago?

I agree with the betting odds of Bourland to be 10.00. That should even be 20.00. Lol.

I really have to agree wholeheartedly with Bourland's statement. I don't feel like the world should have embraced the route Paul has taken to get into the spotlight. Whatever he's done on Youtube is 1 thing, but he hasn't put in the work and climbed up the ranks like other boxers. He's trying to fast track his way to a title. Real boxers train for years as amateurs then work their way up the ranks.

This will def be a tough fight for Paul and I think he loses it. Not sure if he will quit after this, probably not, but this will let him know if he has a chance in boxing to be something other than a side show.

Yet Bourland is not a high-risk opponent, but there's a possibility that Bourland can finally stop his journey in professional boxing, this is a level-up to his journey to becoming a champion but he is still a thousand miles away from reaching that goal after he stops Bourland he should go for boxers who are in the top 15 if he dares to be great he should be more daring for more challenges if its true that its not all about money.

My thoughts exactly when I read it was an undercard. I guess that's because this is not sponsored by him and he just want to be part of the event.
He didn't have that kind of appeal to the real boxing community in the first place but kudos to him for taking a fight against true boxers. I just don't know if there were some talks behind the scenes.

Why I feel like everyone know what’s going to happen in such a fight? Jake Paul not fighting a real boxer since his all career meeting a real boxer who won his last fight and is full of energy to win once again. Everything is against Jake Paul except the odds for him to win are very higher.
Is this boxer Ryan Bourland tired from boxing, that’s why sportbooks are excepting from Jake to win or there’s something behind the story we don’t know?

I’m putting all my hopes and betting sum for Bourland hopefully it’s a big return in this occasion. Hopefully I’m correct i here.

I would go for Bourland here, and the odds are in favour of Paul. So if you highly believe about Bourland's skill and experience, this is a very good time to place bet on him getting 7.6x of your bet in stake.



I hope Bourland will really end Paul's ambition in boxing. And not just all talks, as he said, he's been honing his boxing skills for years so hoping here that he will use it intelligently inside the ring and beat Paul fair and square. So there will be no false claims who is the real winner or not after the match. And don't find any reason why he lost.

Slowly, Jake Paul is stepping into the ring against a real boxer. This one seems to be unpredictable as to who will win, although Jake Paul has the edge in terms of popularity, but in terms of experience, that factor favors Ryan Bourland.

With 8 rounds of the fight, it's kind of short, but Jake Paul has to ensure he has the stamina to endure against a legitimate boxer.

As for the betting odds, it looks like Jake Paul has been listed as the heavy favorite to win the match. This means that bookies believe it will be another easy win for Jake Paul.

this is an interesting match, I don't know who Ryan Bourland is(first time hearing about him) but seeing his history with boxing and experience I think he'll win this fight, as for Jake Paul, despite his improvement with boxing and his recent win against Andre, I'd still be surprised if he wins. it'll interesting to watch how these two will fair with each other, I mean Jake Paul facing someone who has a decade of experience with boxing and Ryan Bourland facing someone with 4 years of experience in boxing and much younger than him.

I also observed this. I would more acknowledge his drive in boxing if he would challenge big names that are also in their prime. A retired boxer with a good record will be difficult for him and that is because athletes even after retirement are still in their routines. Might a bit out of shape but given he was a pro boxer, he won't be an easy opponent to someone who is just after fame. As we saw on Jake's previous matches, he has the power but lacks the experience and speed. Ryan has it in his prime and I hope he still does with this. His team won't be accepting this for no reason and I hope no "politics" will be involved in this fight.Jake still don't get the respect he wanted from boxing industry and that is for a reason. Boxing is indeed for everyone but things won't be easy not only because you wanted it. He won fights indeed but when faced with a real boxer, as we all saw, he's becoming an underdog with the match.

Bourland got this. Experience wise, he fought more obviously and he's been drunk with tough enemies. He's in boxing world for more than a decade unlike with Jake who is an influencer who became a boxer. Indeed Ryan has announced his retirement but his ge is still on the competition. He won't also not prepare for this for sure. Jake Paul is after his record as I observe; challenging big names which are out of boxing for years, or fighters in different ring. He's indeed good but a boxing veteran is something he should really take seriously.  Definitely would be tough for him but I hope he will give us a good fight.

And for Ryan Bourland, as I said, he won't do this just to give credits to Logan, I wish. It would be an insult to boxing industry somehow, especially for die hard fans. Jake is trying to get his name for fame. He has the talent indeed but experience is not something he will get in few years only. He may indeed give us a piece of his hardwork but a pro boxer is a real deal for him.

Dude's just trying to chase his dream by trying to see if he can go up against real boxers this time or not. His strategy of making a name against washed up MMA pros somewhat worked, but he couldn't carry his weight when faced with real boxers. Hopefully Bourland seals this deal and do another beating to Jake to get this man humbled and actually train and not fight for the clout or for the money. He has the basics covered but I don't think he has the heart on what he does.

Jake Paul was promised by WBC to be ranked in Cruiserweight if he wins against Fury but he lost so now he is looking for a way to fight more in this weight class. Not sure what they agree on this time but he sure won't be getting any belt to be a World Champion if no boxing organization will be willing to adopt him.

Bourland by his records has more experience than Jake, this is a classic example again of how he ended up getting lost vs Fury. He won't be ending Jake's career however but Jake is losing fans already for not winning a fight against a real boxer. 
 

Is Jake losing his appeal in the boxing community that he is relegated his fight to undercard he used to be the main card in many of his fights, I have not heard of this guy Bourkland but he's coming from a fresh win from a real boxer and he was a two-time champion even though it's not a World title but still a good pick compared to other fighters Jake fought mostly MMA has been.

In his quest to become a World champion, Jake Paul will face Ryan Bourland This fight will appear on the undercard of Amanda Serrano's and Nina Meinke's clash.

Ryan is not a patsy because he is a former Golden Gloves champion and National Junior Olympics boxer and he comes from a fresh win off a fifth-round TKO of Santario Martin in September 2022 and is on a three-fight winning streak.

So this is going to be a good challenge for Jake Paul and he will be tested if he got what it takes to step up on the next level in a professional fight

Ryan Bourland made a bold announcement
