Sadly, it's an indictment of where boxing is as a sport at the moment. Literally rock bottom.

The social media genie is out of the bottle. We will see more and more of this. There's money to be made from a newer and younger audience. I remember seeing a weigh-in with the SM influencer Amber O'Donnell against another SM fittie. Now for this old man that was lovely to see. I couldn't tell you how the fight went though.

Only person that should get any discredit from this is AJ. The man has millions and in reality he should be fighting for world titles, or thereabouts. These influencer fights should really be against folks at the end of their careers like Chisora or people who have a name but will never be better than domestic level like Tommy Fury

Joshoa is on the downward slope of his career. Can't blame him for filling his boots with the purse he got for this fight. Paul would struggle against a regional cruiserweight champion from the UK. AJ has done Paul a favour by twatting him into next week. Paul should revaluate his ability and the standard of his future opponents. Paul Vs Alan Carr would be closer contest than last night's mis-match.

I can’t argue that he’s on the downward slope but he’s still potentially got a couple of world title fights in him. There’s people saying JP shouldn’t be a pro, the reality is he’s probably better than a lot of pros and brings a lot of money to the ring. It’s a no brainer in a  lot of situations

Andy Tate fighting on misfits shortly 

Possibly the worst fight I've ever watched. They're punching like I do in my anxiety dreams. Might as well be fighting underwater. Embarrassing.

I watched The AJ Jake Paul fight.....Would never call AJ for taking such a fight as in reality it was a spar without the headguard.

Jake Paul took some heavy shots which in honesty would have knocked many a Heavyweight out so fair play to him

As a spectacle it was awful AJ had been out the ring 15 months it looked more 15 years.....He has made enough money for him and their future generations

They've both been battered around the ring.

Hard to hate on Paul 

He's tapped into a market no one else had 

He's generated millions for these boxers / UFC fighters wether ex or current fighters 

They need him more than he needs them, which is sad in reality, but it's the world we're living in
