A collection of some classic Lemmy memes for your enjoyment
Re the meme: We don't have to thank Paul for anything; it was Anthony Joshua who delivered what has to be a very short happiness to a lot of people on the internet.
I say it has to be very short, because we have to make it very short. Paul doesn't care about getting beaten up, he cares about money. He monetises being disliked, because he's untalented, uncreative, and lazy. For those reasons, we must starve him of attention.
My goodness that smile.
and the look of abject horror on the other guy's face is amazing.
I always sang it "balls of holly" , ha... don't think I've ever seen it or paid much attention to how it's spelt.
That smile!! That gorgeous smile!
AJ just fucking played him. I’m sure of it. Did the whole yeah sure I’ll loose and then proceeds to beat the shit out of fuckface. Lawsuit incoming if true.
Paul can wipe away his tears in his pile of money. Estimates are putting it at 100 million from his bout with Joshua.
Sowing his own hatred is how he makes his money. Best if we just forget about him.
Man, I’d have a massive smile too if I were about to nail Jake Paul to the wall.
Yeah, i bet you would--you slut 😏
Post fight AJ looked like he came back from a jog around the block.
Is that the real smile? I know he was smiling, but I've seen other versions where it's not nearly this pronounced. Did someone tweak it?
If you watch the footage there's a moment he has a big smile like 😃
He knew he was going to win for the entire fight, but the smile I think is when he knows this is the moment he's going to clench it
Did this even go past the first round?
Yep 6 rounds it was so and methodical. At the end Jake looked like he was having a near death experience and Anthony was honestly barely sweating. Honestly, barely sweating.
I read somewhere afterward that AJ broke Paul's jaw in two places and he had to have emergency surgery immediately after the bout. Homeboy's going to be eating Christmas dinner through a straw lol
Damn. I guess he could have dropped him in the first. But then the bets wouldn’t have come in?
Yep, he made a show of it. I honestly think he wanted to torture him as well, slowly destroy him physically and psychologically.
Jake Paul forgot that he can only challenge senior citizens.
I find it interesting that between these 2 guys, we have four first names, Anthony, Jake, Joshua, and Paul.
That's more interesting than the whole situation.
I don't know who that is or what's going on, but I would probably have the same expression on my face if I was about to do that to Jake Paul
A truly jaw dropping moment.
Can someone explain to me why this is such a big deal? I have gathered from context the guy who lost was an influencer that people dislike, but that’s really all I know. Is there more to it than that?
Not really. He's a vocal racist douchebag who pretends to be an athlete to chase clout. He engaged in competition with an actual athlete and got immediately and embarrassingly wrecked.
It's like if Musk had actually fought Zuckerberg and immediately had his face caved in. I don't care that the Zucc won, I just care that Elon got his cheeks clapped like a little bitch.
He engaged in competition with an actual athlete
I haven't been paying much attention, and didn't even know this fight had happened until after the memes, so I might get some of this wrong. But, from what I gather, the influencer initially planned to fight a boxer who was significantly smaller and lighter, but there were legal issues with that fight. So, instead he arranged to fight Anthony Joshua. Joshua hadn't fought in something like a year and a half. But, is an actual boxer who hasn't fully retired.
The way the fight went, the influencer kept running away until he was too tired to keep running, at which point, finally, the boxer was able to actually start landing punches, and eventually he broke the influencer's jaw in 2 places.

dude is a known toxic masculine Internet personality that is famous for, stupid mean pranks, womanizing, and being an all around piece of shit human.
dude went into the Aokigahara forest in Japan to ridicule the corpses of people who committed suicide. (edit: this was his brother evidently, but it says a lot about the family doesn't it?)
if that doesn't say what kind of a piece of shit he is, I don't know what will.
He's also the owner of the maga Gatorade called Prime, just in case anyone passing through the comments gets the urge to drink some.

That was his brother, Logan Paul.
my mistake, but it says a lot about the family, doesn't it.
If he didn't condemn his brother doing it that proves he's a piece of shit

Yikes
That smile just lights up the ring.
I'm a gay woman, but that smile kinda does it for me. Bro looks elated that he gets to rock Jake's shit so thoroughly
Fa-la-la-la-la Jake Paul is lame
Looks like he got his bell tolled
