Video to Jake Paul versus Anthony Joshua brought to you by Total Wireless, the official wireless provider of you have c They're in your corner when unlimited five G data.

Speaker 2

That will not slow you down?

All right, man.

Speaker 1

So some people believe in fairy tales.

Whoever believed that Jake Paul was gonna win?

That was an absolute fairy tale.

I've got a friend in a group message that said I just put twenty dollars on Jake Paul to win.

Speaker 2

I was like, bro, he just wasted your money.

Speaker 1

There was never a world in which Jake Paul was going to beat Anthony Joshuall was always a matter of how the fight would end.

So I watched all the pundits talking about the fight.

Even Razindo, my boxing coach, I was like, does Anthony Joshua represent boxing?

Everybody from that world felt like Anthony Josquell was representing boxing, and as the fight started to go on, first off, he was representing boxing, so they wanted him to get the job done all right, First and foremost, you can't lose to a guy that's perceived to be a YouTuber, even though today Jake Paul is more boxer than YouTuber.

I've said this time and time again.

When you have resources, when you can spend a million dollars a year on training camps, housing, food, coaches, this is not recreational anymore.

Speaker 2

He's a boxer, He's just not a boxer at that level.

Speaker 1

I ran into his brother in New York City and I said to Logan, what parameters are in place?

Logan, what safeguards do they have to make sure that Anthony Joshua doesn't hurt your brother?

He said, there are no he goes, They're gonna just straight fight.

So in that regard, you gotta give credit to Jake Paul.

He fought Anthony Joshua.

I swear to god, I thought it was a gimmick in the beginning.

I thought that's why he was calling guys out like myself, Tyrenwood and Si Silva.

And then he lost to Tommy Fury.

I was like, well, that's the last time we gonna fight a boxer.

But dude, dude's got balls.

Dude's got balls to standing there with aj who had been off, so his chin is refreshed, he's ready to fight.

The fight starts, Joshua cannot catch up to Jake.

You can see very clearly that the game plan was to Paul to kind of run and frustrate Anthony Joshua over the course of his fight, and through the first few rounds it was working.

Speaker 2

Hell.

Speaker 1

In the first round, neither one of them landed a damn punch.

And that's the problem with boxing.

The problem with boxing is you can get these fights.

Got have all this hype, and nothing happens.

In MMA.

Ninety eighty percent of the time there's action, fight starts, there's not much action.

The announcers even said they thought Jake might have won the first round because he landed one punch.

I'm thinking to us, though, this is a nightmare.

The referee is completely lost.

Jake is out there shooting double legs on Aj.

The ref looked like he was gonna take a point.

Never took a point.

You could just see Paul getting tired.

I also saw the referee gave him a break for a low blow when Jake shot a double and all AJ did was stuff his head.

Nothing landed.

Then when it showed it, what landed was he pulled Joshua on top of it.

His knee hit him in the stumble.

Hey, it was exactly what you thought it was going to be at points, but it was even better as the fight went on, because you saw Joshua starting to kind of get.

Speaker 2

Off on him.

Pause.

Speaker 1

So Anthony, Joshua is fight trying to find him.

As the fight goes alonger all those big actions, the shots, the big overhand rights, all those things are starting to fatigue Paul.

So Joshua keeps stalking, keep stalking.

I always say, you can intimidate someone with your posture.

You can make yourself bigger than you actually are.

And that's what Joshua did.

Then he starts throwing the jab, and he starts throwing the jab, and he starts throwing the jab.

Dude, by the fifth round, he knocked him down twice.

I thought the fight was gonna be over because he was gonna knock him again, body shots putting him down, put Paul down twice.

Hats off to Jake.

He kept trying to fight.

He kept getting up when he could have quit on himself.

At one point he started limping.

It looked like that was the moment he was gonna throw in the towel, say you know what, I'm done, I'm injured, I'm hurt.

I don't want to do that.

But hats off to him.

He got up and he kept fighting.

We get to the sixth round.

Speaker 2

And you can just tell that it's over.

There are a lot of people that said, Jake, Paul can't go forward with you.

Speaker 1

Joshua was very smart and saying, you gotta respect any fighter.

There were a few times where Jake actually landed those big overhand rights that he put Tyron Woodley down with.

Speaker 2

But Joshua just ate that.

Speaker 1

And I think when Anthony saw he could take those punches and they could really do no damage to him, it even boosted his confidence more because then he got even more reckless in his approach to getting after Paul.

I got a video Rodrigo and video just watching the fight, so you got my innswery, my reaction immediately after the fight.

You'll see that at the end of the video.

But in the sixth round, you could just tell that this fight was over.

You knew that Anthony Joshua was going to eventually land something.

Speaker 2

That hurt Jake Paul.

Speaker 1

And you know how you know, the boxing world wanted it to be brutal because Razindo was sitting here and he goes, I hope he gets knocked out bad.

He didn't want it to get tko.

They wanted Paul to get absolutely destroyed.

And honestly, that right hand, oh my god, he took all.

Speaker 2

Of that right hand.

Speaker 1

You could see in his face he was like, Okay, now I understand boxing.

Now I understand.

Like at it's worse what boxing can be because he got hit clean by one of the biggest punchers, you know, acclaimed a lot of accolades, World champion heavyweight, and he went down and didn't get up, and honestly, I was hoping he didn't get up because it was only gonna get worse.

I thought Francis should have stayed out when Joshua hurt am bad.

But a lot of times fighters just don't really want to give up on themselves and that's why.

Speaker 2

They get hurt worse.

Speaker 1

But it was exactly what it needed to be tonight for this fight, and for this fight, it was fun.

It was crazy at times with the wrestling and all the grabbing, the and the clutching, the referee saying the fans didn't pay for this ship, all the dirty tactics.

Speaker 2

And it ended in the way that it should.

Speaker 1

Sometimes a story ends in the way that the story should end.

It always should have ended with Anthony Joshua knocking out Jake Paul, and that's exactly what we got.

But I think it's time that people give Paul some credit for what he did.

What he did, what he has done for boxing.

It is ability and willingness to stand in there with guys.

Speaker 2

Now, I wonder, right what's next.

Speaker 1

Does he go back to fighting people that don't belong in that with him, or does he to continue this upwards path into fighting these super high level boxers.

Because for a guy that does not have the greatest record now Eve maybe seven to two, a guy that doesn't have the longest career, he's the only one outside of comic record that could fight this level of fight at his experience and draw in the type of crowd that they drew in tonight.

This has to be one of the biggest, one of the biggest fights AJ's had in a while in terms of his ability in terms of people to to then like looking watching, excitement, expectation, and it was the least challenging and least threatening fight that he's had in a really long time.

Speaker 2

But it ended as it was supposed to.

Speaker 1

Anthony Joshua knocks out Jake Paul in the sixth round with a nasty right hand that put him down for the third time in the fight and ultimately ended the fight.

Joshua represents boxing in the way that he should have.

Jake Paul now is still a boxer, but he got some rebuilding to do.

But I'll tell you, man, I leave this with a little more like positive outlook on Paul because of what he did in there today and him actually going in there and fighting the world champion.

Speaker 2

How many people would do that?

Speaker 1

Uh, guys, hey, like subscribe, tell your friends to tell their friends that DC's got a YouTube channel and I'm tapping in.

I'm doing stuff like that.

But Hey, some stories just in the way they're supposed to in the story tonight, it ended like it was supposed to.

Anthony Joshua was always supposed to knock out j Paul.

Speaker 2

Boys, at my.

Speaker 1

Wrong, rodrig got my wrong?

Was that the ending you expected?

It was what's supposed to happen?

Right?

Yeah, well, imagine come over here, imagine this, my boy, Rodrigo.

Speaker 2

Obviously you guys know it from the Ultimate Fighter.

What would have happened.

Speaker 1

If he didn't knock him out would have looked bad from boxing.

It would have looked bad for boxing.

If yeah, oh god, josh yeah, yeah, it would have looked bad.

Thank goodness, Thank goodness.

He knocked him out.

All right, guys, until next time, Peace,
