We’ve got a boxing Netflix tournament that was dominated by Jake Paul vs. Anthony Joshua, in which the latter ultimately succeeded, managing to deliver the finish everyone was waiting for in the sixth round. However, the fight felt very strange.
Speculations immediately began to spread that the course and outcome of the fight had been fixed. Not in the sense that Paul should win, probably no one would believe that, but that Joshua simply spared him and finished him only in the sixth round.
What does this suggest? Joshua threw fewer punches than usual. In addition, we saw several questionable situations, which are discussed in the video below.
Was Anthony Joshua vs Jake Paul 𝗦𝗖𝗥𝗜𝗣𝗧𝗘𝗗 until the KO?
🔹 Jake got dropped by a ‘phantom punch’ that never landed, in Round 6
🔹 AJ threw a career-low number of punches/round
🔹 In the Round 5 knockdown, Joshua landed on Jake’s shoulder/glove… not his head ❌

I have a lot of mixed emotions about this whole thing. Actually, it was a strange fight that disappointed from both sides.
Nate Diaz
The guy is scared. In the end, he obviously didn’t work as well as he should have.
Matt Brown
It’s great to finally see it in real life.
Diana Belbita
Jake Paul has attempted more takedowns in a boxing match than I have in my UFC career.

Scam people! I don’t understand how you can bet on that. It seems to me that they agreed when they would end it. I don’t understand how such a great boxer can end a fight in the sixth round. At least Joshua gets a decent package.
Cody Garbrandt
He could have ended it much earlier.
