On the box…

There are certain things I never, or at least very rarely, post about here because I just have no interest in them. One of those things is sport, particularly boxing which I actually kind of hate, and another is Jake Paul, wotrhless Youtube scum (though I can never decide if he or his similarly worthless brother Logan is worse). Put both those things together, however…

…and you might just get me interested, especially when it involves him getting seven shades of shit beaten out of him. The fight he did the other day with Anthony Joshua was already over by the time I got up the following day, so I could only marvel at the outcome… as the Wiki piece notes, the match was criticised for being noticeably unbalanced, and I did kind of wonder why Joshua took all of six rounds to knock the tedious prick out, it should’ve been almost immediate… but then I realised Joshua was being very deliberate and toying with him, and it just felt so much better. I mean, look at that face. That is the face of a man with regrets. He is wondering what the fuck he’s done, questioning his life choices, and realising he’s bitten off more than he could chew (and now he can’t chew anything at all).

It was kind of gold if you’re a mean-spirited prick like I can be in cases like this (I like a good bit of Schadenfreude when something like this happens), and, well, it’s also being accused of being less than 100% real. Apparently this accusation has dogged Jake’s whole boxing career, and there’s certainly been questionable aspects of how he’s conducted same (e.g. his choice of fights with people like Mike Tyson that are long past their prime), but… you know, Joshua did break his fucking jaw in two places. That doesn’t seem like something you’d script, I can’t imagine even Jake Paul being thrilled to have that happen to him even for the monstrous amount of money he was apparently being paid for it… yeah, I can’t really get with that idea. Still, there was stupid money involved, so he could probably buy himself a new jaw if it came to that…
