Showtime PPV released quotes from Jake “The Problem Child” Paul and Hasim Rahman Jr., son of the legendary former two-time heavyweight world champion Hasim Rahman, who clash in an eight round cruiserweight bout on August 6 at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The PPV telacast also features unified female featherweight champion Amanda “Real Deal” Serrano against Brenda “La Pumita” Carabajal, plus unbeaten super welterweight Brandun Lee (25-0, 22 KOs) and unbeaten lightweight Ashton Sylve (7-0, 7 KOs) against opponents to be named.
Jake Paul: “Fury fumbled the bag for the second time in a row and went into hiding, so I’m going to step up, again, and take on a new opponent on short notice. Nothing but respect for Hasim Rahman Jr., a professional heavyweight boxer with a 12-1 record who comes from a legendary boxing family. He’s bigger, he’s stronger and he’s more experienced. But guess what? I’m crazier. I’m raising the stakes and on August 6, I will get my respect under the bright lights of Madison Square Garden.”
Hasim Rahman Jr: “Jake Paul and I sparred two years ago and let’s just say I took it easy on the kid. August 6 is not a sparring session. I am going to separate him from God’s conscience. My name is Hasim Rahman Jr., and I am going to knock out Jake Paul. Period.”
Watched Rahman fight Morrison. He was god awful, both of them. Embarrassing using the name their fathers who legitimately made their name what it was. I can’t stand the paul sisters. But I’m picking jake to win this.
But Jake boxing alone is making tons more than all of us on here lol Smart kid.
Jake wins this inside of 5 rounds, if he fights James McKenzie Morrison next, that may be a fun selling fight.
The PPV part isn’t for me here unless at a theatre, but he is putting together decent cards. Good that he added Brandun Lee and he is getting Serrano another payday.
I think that Ramhman will knockout jake paul. If He did it to Lewis, he will knockout jake paul.
No, this Hasim Rahman Jr., Rahmans son! He grew out of Rahmans head after the Holyfield fight.
LOLOLOLOLOLOL Grew out of his head. Brilliant!
@Kris I was anticipating what the responses might be when reading Ball Family Farms’ comment, but wasn’t anticipating anything like your comment. Hilarious.
Loool his injury was so grotesque, it’s one of the ugliest and grotesque thing i’ve ever seen in a boxing match !
Yes, hematoma from the clash of heads. Oddly, many arteries run through the temple and any trauma can cause rapid blood loss under the scalp. The fix? It will absorb in many cases.
the clown show continues
As of now Jake Paul is a real boxer and it would be hard to argue he isn’t. On top of this he has shown that if you can market yourself and avoid having a promoter there is a lot of money to be made. Five fights in and he has made more than some boxers make in a full career.
I said months back the fury kinhahin relationship went far deeper than was explained. Always remember Tyson fury’s big shout out to Dan for getting it done when trying to negotiate the AJ fight – funny how furry now doesn’t know the bloke, yet can’t get into the US. Fury’s are as crooked as their gangster pal
Paul is everything but not stupid, don’t think he takes on a huge risk by facing Rahman Jr..
micky dees got respect selling the mcribb…you will never have it cheeseburger boy..
