Comment on Jake Paul's wiki page described him as a professional boxer instead of exhibitionist.

  And yet you refuted no part of my argument and did nothing to lend credence to your own 🤔

  The ignorant party here is you. But by all means continue laboring under the delusion that you understand boxing because you watched the highlights of one YouTuber fighting a geriatric in an exhibition.

    What or why would I refute anything you say? It’s obvious that you don’t really understand boxing, it’s level of corruption and how that exhibition was played out. You have already staggered with attempts to put words in my mouth/text twice that I didn’t mention anything even close to. I have no interest in going any further with somebody showing those traits.

    As I said, you continue thinking what you like, but don’t contaminate other people’s thoughts with your nonsense.

      Professional boxing is corrupt in many, many ways. I never said otherwise.

      That said, boxing being corrupt isn’t the reason that Tyson lost to Paul. Tyson lost to Paul because Tyson was 58 years old. Again, not rocket science. This was an exhibition. The corruption you speak of is more prevalent in the actual professional circuit, not fights between youtubers and influencers.

      And perhaps take your own advice about not “contaminating other people’s thoughts” with your unsubstantiated nonsense. Tyson took the fight because the purse was enormous even if he lost, just like everyone who agrees to fight Paul. No one who actually watches boxing was surprised when Paul won.

        Again. For the final time. You. Don’t. Understand. What. You. Are. Talking. About.

        That’s a good thing. You can learn later on.
