Nate’s really handicapped without the option of the Stockton Slap or the Middle Finger.

We need more women in STEM, and by that, I mean skateboarding, television, esports, and magic.
This is miserable, but it's still a lot more entertaining to watch than Mayweather vs. Pacquiao, which was the first and only boxing PPV I ever bought. The misery factor is more about the people/businesses involved.

edit: I also 100% believe that Paul is overselling Diaz's punches just to try to hype the crowd and build drama. He knows he's the heel.

unironically outside of the awesome Tyson Fury fights the best boxing fight for pure entertainment of the past five years was McGregor v Mayweather

It was mildly entertaining I guess. The result was inevitable after the first round. It was kinda cool to see Nate keep coming, but he also has no power in his punches so there was no chance of him knocking Paul out or even down.

It was a curiosity to see if Jake Paul would gas out before the end and get overtaken by a gassed Diaz.

Had a knockdown that was more sad than thrilling.

after the commentary on the UFC card last night - what are the odds that Bisping and Cruz ever work together again?

I’m shocked people are still amused by and have questions about Jake Paul fighting older, smaller, shot guys from a different sport. He’s a promotional marvel, I thought the gimmick would’ve died when he lost to the one boxer he fought.

Last night when I was watching the ufc fights on an assuredly legal platform which happened to have a random chat attached to it, about every 20 seconds people were popping in to ask about Jake Paul. Some of them clearly thought he was fighting on the UFC card.

As much as we hate to admit it, Diaz was the B side of that fight. Paul could sell PPVs with him fighting a straw boy.
