The native Americans would like a word...
It's a cloaked rushbat.
Now that we've gotten what we wanted (seeing him get his ass beat in a real fight), I hope the world forgets him quickly and permanently.
He has contributed nothing of value to the world and deserves no more of our attention or money.
Me, neither. But calling him out is still "engagement" in the platform's eyes.
They don't care whether it was positive or negative, as long as they can sell it to advertisers, shareholders, and data brokers.
Great, this will be my last comment, too.
Many of these fixed fight accusations come from people with little to no experience boxing, but who will claim with so much unearned confidence how "obvious" it is.
It is possible that Tyson threw the match. I'll give that oxygen to people with the experience to know what they're talking about.
More importantly, these accusations fall into an even bigger trap: giving Jake Paul attention.
Jake Paul built up a string of wins against fighters who weren't boxers, boxers with inflated win/loss records, and boxers who have been retired for years.
Every claim that a fighter is "obviously" throwing against him fed the metrics. It creates hate watchers who want to see him get beat in the next fight. It tells the networks, this makes money.
If we had collectively recognized the trap, stopped shouting "rigged!" and signaling how much we wanted a next match, a "real" match, Jake Paul wouldn't have been able to ride the hate-hype train to a $100M+ payout for a broken jaw.
