OT: JAKE PAUL vs ANTHONY JOSHUA (Netflix)

Sat Dec 20, 2025 5:27 am

After a very good undercard, the so-called ‘main event’ was an embarrassment! :oops:

He held his own!”, said one commentator about Jake Paul! :shock:

What he did, was head straight to the ropes and run around the ring pulling weird faces, sticking his tongue out, and avoiding any real contact with Anthony Joshua, although he ‘won’ the first round because he was the only one who actually laid a glove of any degree on an opponent!

Joshua was clearly getting frustrated at the lack of action, and whilst I don’t blame Paul for not wanting to trade blows, WTF was the point in the ‘fight’ in the beginning? :?

Note: Actually, we already know the answer to that one! £$€£$€

I was unfortunate enough to be wide awake and watched the debacle live and your summary is spot on mate, it was an embarrassment for all concerned.
