Welcome to Midnight Mania!
No person appears that impressed by Jake Paul’s latest knockout win (watch highlights).
At first look, it needs to be a strong second for “The Downside Baby.” He flew overseas, took on a boxer with a greater file than his personal, and gained inside three minutes. That needs to be a fantastic night time! Nevertheless, the facade begins to collapse when Paul’s opponent Ryan Bourland is examined carefully: he’s a 35-year-old oil rigger who retired from skilled boxing a number of years in the past.
The bout wasn’t remotely aggressive, much like Paul’s bout a number of months in the past reverse Andre August (highlights). Paul is successfully padding his file, a time-honored custom in boxing. Nevertheless, not everybody appreciates his latest techniques, and the group critiquing his selection in opponent contains former UFC champion Michael Bisping, who launched a rant on his podcast.
In response to “The Depend,” Paul is scamming battle followers and making a mockery of boxing by bullying opponents with no probability at victory.
Michael Bisping went on a RANT about Jake Paul’s final battle
“He’s disrespecting boxing, he’s conning the followers. Beating individuals you understand you’ll be able to beat, that’s known as a bully.”

“Jake Paul was at all times destined to win this battle and also you all are the suckers for those who paid for this battle.” Bisping stated (by way of MMA Information). “Now I do know most individuals didn’t. Sadly, his opponent was utter canine—t and couldn’t make it by one spherical. ‘How was he capable of get it completed?’ Oh, he’s simply so good. He anticipated a second spherical however my god the man did it spherical one!
“[Canelo] doesn’t need circus sideshow freakshow fights. He’s disrespecting the game of boxing. He’s disrespecting all of the individuals who labored their means up. However extra importantly, he’s conning the followers. If Ryan Bourland is your subsequent Uber driver, give him 5 stars and a great tip. Beating individuals you understand you’ll be able to beat, that’s known as being a bully.”
At one level in 2020, Bisping was in consideration as a doable Paul opponent. The bout by no means materialized, however since then, the retired Englishman has been extremely crucial of Paul on a number of events. He’s not alone in his opinions, in fact, however there’s clearly no love misplaced between the 2.
Earlier on Monday, Paul seemingly introduced his subsequent boxing date as Friday, April 26, 2023. Primarily based on that timeline and the way shortly the date has been introduced, I wouldn’t count on a big step up in competitors from the latest opponents.
Gotta earn again that $1.5 million someway.
