Jake Paul, TKO, R1
Ben Askren is a wrestler and has a very glass jaw as we saw with Masvidal and Lawler.

I hate myself for picking Jake Paul but this is clearly a set up as Ben Askren was a great wrestler but his striking was poor. This is gonna be sad.

Paul TKO 3rd
Jake Paul has been hand selecting his opponents very carefully while dodging actual strikers that would be interested in the bout. Constantly calling out grapplers to fight in a boxing match, we can only hope after he knocks out Askren he will step up to the task of fighting someone with some hands. Askren was a terrible striker imo and now his hands will be padded. Youth and power are on the side of Paul and Askren's chin is compromised at this stage.

@SlipperyWhenDry

Agree 100%! If he wants to be taken seriously as a boxer (which is probably the least of his concerns, all he cares about is money and attention) then he should start fighting actual boxers. If I had my way about it, I'd throw him in with Usyk just to see him get ****** up but he'd never agree to that unfortunately.

The other thing to consider is that Askren retired because he needed hip surgery. So this is an extra ring rusted, injury recovering old man fighting a 24 year old who hasn’t had to absorb any real damage before in his life.
