It has to be, surely?
The fight might be tonight, but it still doesn’t feel real. Are we not in a fever dream? How the hell has Jake Paul landed a fight with Anthony Joshua? Well, we know why, but still.
To me, this is the biggest mismatch we have seen, or will ever see, in the boxing ring.
Joshua is one of the best British heavyweights to have ever graced the sport, while Paul was once beaten on points by Tyson Fury’s brother, Tommy, who isn’t exactly the scariest of professional fighters (if he even is one anymore).
Paul is so far out of his depth he may as well be in a diving pit. If he makes it out of the first round, I’d be utterly stunned.
We just have to hope he comes through the fight OK.
I mean, just look at the size difference. Joshua looks like he is posing with a fan, not with a bloke he is supposed to be fighting.
