@ 13:12 I think it's because he's pretty green overall.He isn't used to getting hit clean so he's trying to punch and exit before the return at the same time instead of planning his feet and following the target. I used to do it a lot when I first started sparing in kickboxing.
Great breakdown! I do disagree with the rehydration clause being fair. If he makes weight, he makes weight. But to not be able to rehydrate completely could be dangerous for Hasim, in regards to the brain fluid being replenished.
@RAWPAPERSONLY jake was bigger than every opponent he faced but he can't deal with someone else having a big weight advantage over him. Seems like a coward
@@qedydu5946 yea but Jake is the one paying hasim and hasim signed the piece of paper why he complaining now? He could have said no but why did he sign??? Bcz it’s his biggest pay day
Feel like you definitely overlooked Hasim's point in him coming down in weight. His point is very valid and you seemed to push it aside with a reference to weight classes and advantages... almost made his point while disagreeing. Jake Paul picked a heavyweight to fight at cruiserweight.
My biggest issue is the rehydration clause. I train fighters and this is a bigger disadvantage than most know. It's hard enough to cut 25 lbs and then you can't rehydrate?! Fighters usually weigh in the night before, I would like to see the contract and see exactly what weight Rahman will have to be on fight day.
@@andrewwood9067 essentially all classes need a rehydration standard. I don't have an issue with the clauses. I have issue with fighters not being able to maintain weight reasonable to the class or deliberately dropping a class to balloon above the weight on fight days. In this instance yes, Jake Paul's using it to his advantage but equally if Rahman Jr can't get down the weight and hold it...he shouldn't be signing the deal. I would say I don't think fighters should be allowed to go and pick that advantage, if its questionable don't sanction the fight and they should be made to fight someone within the weight category.
@@jamiereilly7922 I'm with ya there. It's a real problem because almost no one fights in their own weight class anymore, so you have the option of fighting a guy who will undoubtedly outweigh you by 15 lbs on fight day, or you cut weight yourself. They tried a no more than 8% gain between Friday and Saturday but the UFC guys cried about it and it was done within a few months
I have never seen Jake more frazzled in a press conference until this one he wasn't able to paint this narrative that he usually does and I think it's a good thing it makes thing more fresh than it being the Jake Paul show.
He’s literally never won a war of words, he even lost to Ben askren. Tyron woodly roasted him in there face to face. Jake being a good talker is a fake narrative.
The weight cut & rehydration clause will have a big effect on a natural heavyweight, lets not just dismiss it as a cakewalk. Rahmans last fight he was aroumd 224 i think, so he probably walks around at maybe 230/235 ish
@@charliecraig2043 he has to cut weight down to cruiserweight (less than 200lbs) when he's naturally around 235 and then he can't rehydrate between the weigh in and the fight as rehydrating adds weight
@@charliecraig2043 Most fighters walk around much heavier than the weight they have to be at to fight, some fighters cut a lot of weight leading up to a fight but when getting very close to weigh ins they cut "water weight" and completely dehydrate themselves so that they can make that lower weight. It's very common practice that after weigh ins a fighter fighter will be hooked up to IV fluids to rehydrate themselves, giving them back a lot of that weight which is a great advantage in boxing (you should look at a boxer at weigh ins and then in the fight, the difference is amazing. Some fighters go from looking incredibly unhealthy, skinny and barely standing up - to balloon up back up to completely normal over night) A rehydration clause in the contract means that you can't use the IV fluids.
What you said about Paul being timed with an upper cut , I've said the same. He also doesn't throw combinations, I have yet to see Paul throw even a true 3 punch combination
If I remember correctly Hasim was given a very close deadline to make weight it seems like Jake and his team were counting on him not being able to honour the deal.
Biggest difference in the change of opponent in my opinion is jakes power carrying over against a much bigger man. I could see him getting out boxed against Tommy but had a good chance of landing a bomb and Tommy getting wobbled... Hassim is so much bigger and it might be the case that he takes jakes best shot and keeps moving forward. Hassim by decision
The rehydration clause isn’t just about ballooning, it’s about being able to have sufficient fluids in the system/water retention which will be an easy cut weight for Rahman JR
@@jefftaylor8644 I don’t mean easy cut weight per se, but in terms of him being able to dehydrate his body for less water weight to be able to reach a sufficient Weight, which most fighters do
Jake himself doesn't have good cardio as seen in the Woodley fights. So basically who's gonna be able survive gassing and if Jake can work around Rahman's jab
if you took both resumes/acomplishments of these fighters in boxing without knowing who is who, there is no way you would pick Jake over rahman jr. Rahman Jr is bigger, stronger in the clinch, pretty much same power as jake, more experienced. He is also better fundemantly, can switch stances, slip shots/counter. I dont know why jake and his team picked Rahman Jr, but they are in for a rude awakening.
Yeah but honestly jake to me has created a streak like thing where no matter how good his opponent is, I still don't belive they can outbox him and win, he's the guy who's hosting this, he's the a side, he's the money fight, there is psychological issuses there, you doubt yourself when you're against the one most people are intersted in and you just another guy he's fighting you know, you start to doubt yourself if i was any of those fighters, i'd doubt myself, like a lot of people care about who i am now and googling me and watching me because i'm fighting jake paul, a lot of those are coming to see jake and not me, like it aint easy to think you can beat him.
@@DreamLurker32 a lot of what you said can work to Rahmans advantage, knowing how many people will be watching, and being a true warrior at heart he can bring that killer instinct out in the ring he will smell the inexperienced fresh meat and Jake in trouble smell the blood in the water and dominate Jake
@@apapz3245 Nah I don't think jake's team would have taken this fight if hasim was gonna dominate jake as you say, there must be something there that we're not seeing that they are seeing. Who would have seen jake getting the better of the last two guys he fought? Anyways i'm still confused about that he's taking hasim on quite frankly because he's a heavyweight, this whole catch weight fight where someone goes up or down in weight to fight someone, I don't understand it, if there is weight classes, then this goes against it. if you're a crusierweight why should you fight a guy who fights heavyweight even if you can go up in weight or he goes down in weight for the fight to happen it still doesn't make sense to me it's either the guy who loses the weight gona lose a lot of his power or maybe not idk if that is a disadvantge or not it could clearly be a deciding factor positively or negatively maybe you can tell me a guy going down in weight does that hurt him in the fight or not? same as a guy going up in weight as well.
I think you pretty much covered it Brian, the difference in speed, cardio, size, heart and pressure will make this an interesting fight. I can see how they can both win, but irrespective of the result, the smaller man has more excuses for the loss. Either way they get paid. Will I watch the pay per view, nah, I'll be watching your break down. Keep up the good work guys.💯🤙
We have not seen Jake's "boxing" ability, and based on that, Hassim looks more powerful. Jake is bringing the unknown, so Jake will win if he brings the best version of himself. This is the fight to watch, out of all the fights to date.
I don’t think Hasim, was complaining about the rehydration clause. I might be incorrect… but I’m under the impression he was trying to say, stop telling the people, your fighting a heavy weight and some one bigger than me, when we have clause where I can’t even hydrate after the weightin… that’s my impression, I might be incorrect
Cheers brian, As always. A very well explained fight breakdown for blokes like me, who are football-centric. Cheers mate, can't wait o see what happens in that fight!
Tru, u need to understand how important a hydration clause is, of you wanna promote the fight as “im fighting a guy bigger than me” than dont make the rehydration clause
I think the Jake has been smart with picking his opponents by slowly increasing the skill level of each one but this is too big of a jump in skill for him. Bad decision. Pride comes before a fall.
If Jake wants to win he needs to get rid of bj Flores. He’s not a good coach and we saw that when Jake fought Woodley TWICE. Yeah he beat Ben and Nate but I would beat those guys too in a similar way. In the gib fight he had Sugar Shane Mosley and he did a good job and there was a lot of good signs
Best breakdown yet. I've seen one other guy with great insight but this is by far the best yet. Thank you sir new subscriber for your Xtra channel and main one.
Ultimately this is a win win for Jake, if he by some miracle gets the win he can come out and say he's beaten a boxer and a boxer with a better record than Tommy. If he loses he can say course I lost its a very experienced boxer but I had the guts to step up, take him on and give him a bigger payday than any promoter will at this stage in the guys career. The only downside is losing his 0 record but he isn't trying to become world champ so it's irrelevant if he loses here tbh.
“Irrelevant if he loses here” Besides being a big barking dog who talks a huge game but loses to the first boxer he goes up against in a fight his entire team and brother recommended against him doing with a fighter who really didn’t have much name recognition prior to the fight being signed
@@ShaggyDabbyDank Every fighter in boxing is a big barking dog until they get beat lol If you don't have that about you then you won't get anywhere in boxing, dudes got to sell his fights how do you propose he does it? Ask nicely and only fight people his skill level which is massively lower than what he's about to fight with 0 interest or hype? Lol
@@ShaggyDabbyDank His manager and brother said no however his boxing coaches are fine with it which is what matters most as they're the ones who know what level Jake is at
could happen to anyone btw, you could be winning a 12 round bout until the eleventh, and just a slight mistake can get you knocked out. Can get KO'd by anyone aswell.
I think hasim was out of breath in the 2nd round because this fight for him was a legit test against a true legit fighter so there may have been some nerves I also think the constant pressure from Morrison also probably made him breath heavier because hasim likes to sit on the outside and when you are pressured like that it can mess up your breathing. Also he said he's fought at Cruiserweight before so thats probably more natural for him than being at heavyweight so he might have been too big for that fight against a guy with that style. Hasim will be lighter and against a guy who doesn't apply constant pressure and isn't comfortable in close range who he has fought before so he knows what to expect so those nerves shouldn't be there and hasim can dictate how the fight will go and we have to remember Jake has shown to be gassed into round 3 himself so I have more confidence in hasim and his gas tank than most people would from seeing his last fight. I think hasim can stay on the outside and when Jake trys to go in and clinch hasim can move and land heavy shots to the body and head which Jake has never taken consistently so I'm confident that Jakes tank won't last that well if hasim lands to the body Early and keep Jake at a distance and when Jake trys to clinch go to work because Jake never does that he clinchs alot when someone gets close and thinks he's safe. And hasim can definitely land with ease Jake has no defense in any of his fights and constantly leads with his head so hasim can definitely catch him and hurt him because he will still hit like a heavyweight even at Cruiserweight and Jake has never been faced with that power.
Jake hasn't picked the wrong guy. But it's what he wants people to think. And since everyone wants Jake to lose, he makes more money. He's really smart.
2:15 is the reason Jake Paul will lose. If he does win he's got my respect all the way and there's nothing I can do to discredit Jake from being a pro boxer.
Really good analysis by Geordie..if Paul has a good showing (let alone wins) I will be very shocked..judging by his last performance, I don’t think he wins if hasim rahman is conditioned
the mans a legit boxer with good technique and shot selection he's only downside imo is his engine - jake really really has to dig deep or he will get hurt let alone knocked out but dont forget rahman is losing weight he will feel fitter and more energetic having shed 2 stone
@@dreadtrain2846 i wouldnt say pretty easy what so ever, not rehydrating doesnt mean Rahmans skill, confidence, reach, height and experience goes away, too many factors against jake in this one for it to be easy, unless rahman pulls out or doesnt make weight, Jakes in for a long night
@@kole9158 It kind of does though. If he's not allowed to fully rehydrate, it's going to affect all those things. Minus height/reach I suppose. I'm telling you, he's at a SEVERE disadvantage before the fight even begins. I don't care either way, but it's bullshit and shows how little he knows if he thinks the rehydration clause is negligible.
The ducking behind a jab is a good tactic to avoid a counter overhand, often much more common than a counter uppercut, you don't often counter a jab with an uppercut unless you make the read.
@@Ben-io2vo I think everone understands Jake Paul has a slim chance here - his team is likely betting on a long-duration fight bc Jake has a chin and has a chance to knock him out if he gets a lucky shot. Otherwise, the goal of this fight seems to be to show Jake's competence relative to a "real boxer" and to settle that controversy. Regardless of the circumstances, Jake wanted a fight on short notice and likely understands his odds. And if he loses, it's really not a big deal because this is a legit boxer and Jake will very likely show significant improvement relative to his skillset - and it's likely he'll go the distance anyway, so if he were to lose it'd be by a few points here and there. I'm rooting for Jake and Hasim seems like a good guy too - these are just my thoughts.
Ur wrong with hasim he didnt say that because he was complaining he was saying that to expose jake for tryng to make it easier for him when jake has tried to make it look like hes fighting a heavyweight and that he has fought his opponents with no advantage… but if he did say what u ranted about then i would 100% get ur point
IT'S A SET UP! Jake slipped up in an interview where he was talking about his brother saying he shouldn't have taken this. Exact words "My brother said what happens if he accidentally knocks you out?" Slipped up big time.
Theyll just say he meant that if Jake messes up and gets knocked out. But i think we know what was really meant by it. The first Woodley fight Paul got accidentally knocked down and it was ignored. His brothers fight with Floyd was clearly not on the up and up since Floyd accidentally caught him and had to hold him up. The opponents probably sign NDA's because there probably are no knockout clauses in the contracts.
Cant underestimate that dehydration clause. Help be slower mentally and physically, way easier to knock out, fatigued, uncomfortable, potential headaches, and so on.
What a lot of people don't seem to mention is that Tommy also has a terrible habit of managing distance. In a lot of his fights. He clashes into his opponents and gets locked up and isn't able to do long combos because he suffocates his striking distance by smashing into his opponents constantly over and over multiple fights. It was frustrating that Jake and Tyrone were clashing together Everytime and Jake didn't just stay in the edge and pop out shots to open up areas for combos... I hope Jake shows that he doesn't want to continue to perform like that. He has the skills not to and so hopefully he shows that won't be a reoccurring manner he boxes in.
Geordie is criticising rahman for mentioning the rehydration thing and saying it’s fair and weight classes for a reason but jake only fights welterweights
The only thing I disagree on is at 7:45. Why should we give credit to Jake for taking on a “boxer” isn’t that his job? I mean, Jake calls himself a “pro boxer.” We can’t give more credit to someone when that is the standard/norm.
because no one gives him credit now. If you already give him credit then sure you don’t have to give him anymore credit. But for those who don’t want to accept him as a boxer unless he fights a proper competition this fight is the one.
Rahman sells himself well and definitely looks the part but after watching his training and some of his fights I wouldn't be surprised if Jake sleeps him. Jakes in a unique position where he can be selective with his opponents, and he picks certain people for a reason. I honestly thought he didn't stand a chance against Woodley and look what happened. He picked Woodley for a reason just like this fight
@@realkingrav2265 He is also an actual boxer and if Jake actually beats him, he proves he is at boxer level. Doesn't mean the best tho but it will be a good look for him for sure!
Jake making him drop weight class and the rehydration clause is a massive advantage and he coming of a loss jake picked him at his weakest but I think jake bit off more than can chew he has a lot more boxing experience which should make a big difference
You’re actually at your best when you lose as it makes you rethink and change things up. His dad even said he’s improved as he looked bad in every fight he has been in, which Jake used to make a joke but if it’s true then he used the loss to listen to his dad and coaches to improve and not be lazy/ run out of gas
@@pwners4u true sometimes but after getting knocked out a lot of fighters get gun shy worrying about getting knocked out again so they don’t throw as much it can take a toll on fighters mentality
What I will say though. In my mind Jake shouldn’t say he fights a heavyweight if he isn’t fighting Rahman Jr. at heavyweight. Not saying it’s wrong to ask Rahman go down but then don’t flex about it being heavyweight.
The rehydration clause means he can be 215 by lunchtime on fight day - 215 is heavyweight, so on fight night he will theoretically be in there with a heavyweight.
@@christinedugmore Yeah, you have a point there. I still feel that he should be up at heavyweight to say that though. But I guess I see your/his point.
I dont know why jake left Shane Mosley. Jake looked the best againt gib than any other fighter and gib is better than nate and ben and that was his first fight 3 years ago and jake looked the best. Than he switched trainers to bj flores for the nate ben and woodley fight where atleast for the tyron fights jake did not look the best and got saved by his ko power and when he didnt get a ko he got a split decision win. I think he should go back to Shane Mosley
Jake didn't leave Mosley. Shane didn't want to continue associating himself with Jake due to the some controversies Jake was involved in at the time so they decided to not continue working together.
What jake paul is doing to boxing is... making fights happen! There is so much politics in boxing we have to weight years for the fight we want between different belts ! And when that fight happens both have got soft living the high life or are too old ! I'm sure heavyweights could have 4 fights a year ...
My read on Jake during that press conference was that he was ready to get in there. He looked frustrated by not frightened. He has no reason to win this fight but we'd be silly to think that his team would let him take a fight he'd lose
Umm yes he's scared and should be. It was a last minute replacement and based only on his last fight were he got stopped by a heavy hitter by a professional 19-0 heavy hitter. So they think Jake is a "heavy hitter" and beat him with that. But if you watch Rahman's last fight he took a lot a heavy hits again from a PRO heavy hitter. He is fighting a real boxer with a good fight IQ that can take hits and deal out punishment for coming in and missing, something that none of Jake's opponents have done. Only way Jake wins this fight is if it's rigged lol.

@@david_fitzmaurice i can see jake winning if he tires hasim out because his gas tank kinda sucks already but now with a massive weight drop it could be even worse
It would be a terrible fight if it wasn’t for the weight cut and rehydration clause. Hasim is going to be going into that fight depleted. Jake will be 100%. I think that’s going to be a huge advantage for Jake, especially as the fight goes on into the later rounds.
This Is not only Jake's first time fighting an experienced boxer but also his first time fighting without the size and skills advantage too. All his other opponents were smaller than him by a good amount with little to no boxing skill. This fight will definitely he pivotal for Jake's future and don't think he will win.

My biggest issue is the rehydration clause. I train fighters and this is a bigger disadvantage than most know. It's hard enough to cut 25 lbs and then you can't rehydrate?! Fighters usually weigh in the night before, I would like to see the contract and see exactly what weight Rahman will have to be on fight day.
@@andrewwood9067 essentially all classes need a rehydration standard. I don't have an issue with the clauses. I have issue with fighters not being able to maintain weight reasonable to the class or deliberately dropping a class to balloon above the weight on fight days. In this instance yes, Jake Paul's using it to his advantage but equally if Rahman Jr can't get down the weight and hold it...he shouldn't be signing the deal. I would say I don't think fighters should be allowed to go and pick that advantage, if its questionable don't sanction the fight and they should be made to fight someone within the weight category.
@@jamiereilly7922 I'm with ya there. It's a real problem because almost no one fights in their own weight class anymore, so you have the option of fighting a guy who will undoubtedly outweigh you by 15 lbs on fight day, or you cut weight yourself. They tried a no more than 8% gain between Friday and Saturday but the UFC guys cried about it and it was done within a few months
I have never seen Jake more frazzled in a press conference until this one he wasn't able to paint this narrative that he usually does and I think it's a good thing it makes thing more fresh than it being the Jake Paul show.
Keep this energy after Jake Paul gets the win.
@@yoitsdan lol what energy? Its a fact that jake has been losing every press conference lately.
He’s literally never won a war of words, he even lost to Ben askren. Tyron woodly roasted him in there face to face. Jake being a good talker is a fake narrative.
@@eavesdropper0 Jake lost every single press conference he’s ever been in😂😂🤦♂️🤦♂️
Especially with the whole Bet BS. He went full meltdown tantrum mode because Rahman wouldn't entertain the idea of a pointless bet
Is this a mistake for Jake? He’s picked an actual boxer who isn’t 5ft 4 and 40 … so yeah it’s a mistake lol
only thing is hasim’s gas tank is already low and with the big weight drop it’s pretty scary how much effect it’s gonna have on his stamina
So if he wins everyone has to admit he is an elite boxer 🤷♂
@@cammyboyd8362 no, definitely not elite. Maybe a pro boxer but elite his far above both jake and hasim
@@cammyboyd8362 tf u mean elite 😂😂😂 the guy who beat hasim isn't even elite. Hasim is far below elite level
@@cammyboyd8362 Not elite. Just "solid." But solid is already a lot for someone with his lack of experience.
This has to be one of the best breakdowns of this fight. Not like i’m surprised lol Love it Brian!
The weight cut & rehydration clause will have a big effect on a natural heavyweight, lets not just dismiss it as a cakewalk. Rahmans last fight he was aroumd 224 i think, so he probably walks around at maybe 230/235 ish
I’m not really a big boxing fan but what does it mean when they put a weight and rehydration clause in the contract?
@@charliecraig2043 he has to cut weight down to cruiserweight (less than 200lbs) when he's naturally around 235 and then he can't rehydrate between the weigh in and the fight as rehydrating adds weight
@@charliecraig2043 Most fighters walk around much heavier than the weight they have to be at to fight, some fighters cut a lot of weight leading up to a fight but when getting very close to weigh ins they cut "water weight" and completely dehydrate themselves so that they can make that lower weight.
It's very common practice that after weigh ins a fighter fighter will be hooked up to IV fluids to rehydrate themselves, giving them back a lot of that weight which is a great advantage in boxing (you should look at a boxer at weigh ins and then in the fight, the difference is amazing. Some fighters go from looking incredibly unhealthy, skinny and barely standing up - to balloon up back up to completely normal over night)
A rehydration clause in the contract means that you can't use the IV fluids.
He can’t rehydrate more than 210
How would 190pound guy vs 225 pound guy be fair
What you said about Paul being timed with an upper cut , I've said the same. He also doesn't throw combinations, I have yet to see Paul throw even a true 3 punch combination
He has thrown and landed combinations in the Woodley fights, but they were more accurate in the first fight.
jake threw plenty of combinations against woodley lol, jab, body, left hook is his bread an butter
He threw a 3 punch combination to KO Robinson
@@CatsRUs1888 uppercut, left hand right hook; going backwards
Cause he has no punch combinations..only a one - two, no Jab. one - two step back jab, left hook. Jake leans in on every punch.
If I remember correctly Hasim was given a very close deadline to make weight it seems like Jake and his team were counting on him not being able to honour the deal.
This was a very good breakdown that Geordie did
As always
Not really, but okay.
@@dreadtrain2846 go on how so?
@@ljcm1750 true Geordie had abojt 3 boxing lessons now he’s giving pro boxers advice😂 he’s a fud
@@thrk6952 nah, this was a good breakdown
This guys says the best words. He is a straight Viking. He said Berserker 😆 Great video!
I guess he saw your video and decided to cancel the match.
Biggest difference in the change of opponent in my opinion is jakes power carrying over against a much bigger man.
I could see him getting out boxed against Tommy but had a good chance of landing a bomb and Tommy getting wobbled... Hassim is so much bigger and it might be the case that he takes jakes best shot and keeps moving forward.
Hassim by decision
The rehydration clause isn’t just about ballooning, it’s about being able to have sufficient fluids in the system/water retention which will be an easy cut weight for Rahman JR
When I wrestled in high school I never had an "easy cut weight" sometimes I had an easy weight cut though
If I was Jake's opponent I wouldn't care about losing my purse. I'd make weight then not even care if Im 215 the next day
@@jefftaylor8644 I don’t mean easy cut weight per se, but in terms of him being able to dehydrate his body for less water weight to be able to reach a sufficient Weight, which most fighters do
Great breakdown of both fighters
You left out the runner track star comment from Hasim and when he called Jake out for his scams 😂😂
Jake himself doesn't have good cardio as seen in the Woodley fights. So basically who's gonna be able survive gassing and if Jake can work around Rahman's jab
if you took both resumes/acomplishments of these fighters in boxing without knowing who is who, there is no way you would pick Jake over rahman jr.
Rahman Jr is bigger, stronger in the clinch, pretty much same power as jake, more experienced. He is also better fundemantly, can switch stances, slip shots/counter. I dont know why jake and his team picked Rahman Jr, but they are in for a rude awakening.
Yeah but honestly jake to me has created a streak like thing where no matter how good his opponent is, I still don't belive they can outbox him and win, he's the guy who's hosting this, he's the a side, he's the money fight, there is psychological issuses there, you doubt yourself when you're against the one most people are intersted in and you just another guy he's fighting you know, you start to doubt yourself
if i was any of those fighters, i'd doubt myself, like a lot of people care about who i am now and googling me and watching me because i'm fighting jake paul, a lot of those are coming to see jake and not me, like it aint easy to think you can beat him.
@@DreamLurker32 a lot of what you said can work to Rahmans advantage, knowing how many people will be watching, and being a true warrior at heart he can bring that killer instinct out in the ring he will smell the inexperienced fresh meat and Jake in trouble smell the blood in the water and dominate Jake
@@apapz3245 Nah I don't think jake's team would have taken this fight if hasim was gonna dominate jake as you say, there must be something there that we're not seeing that they are seeing.
Who would have seen jake getting the better of the last two guys he fought?
Anyways i'm still confused about that he's taking hasim on quite frankly because he's a heavyweight, this whole catch weight fight where someone goes up or down in weight to fight someone, I don't understand it, if there is weight classes, then this goes against it.
if you're a crusierweight why should you fight a guy who fights heavyweight even if you can go up in weight or he goes down in weight for the fight to happen
it still doesn't make sense to me
it's either the guy who loses the weight gona lose a lot of his power or maybe not idk if that is a disadvantge or not it could clearly be a deciding factor positively or negatively
maybe you can tell me a guy going down in weight does that hurt him in the fight or not? same as a guy going up in weight as well.
Jake Paul vs Nate Diaz should be next!
I think you pretty much covered it Brian, the difference in speed, cardio, size, heart and pressure will make this an interesting fight. I can see how they can both win, but irrespective of the result, the smaller man has more excuses for the loss. Either way they get paid. Will I watch the pay per view, nah, I'll be watching your break down. Keep up the good work guys.💯🤙
Valid points...Assuming this fight isn't going to be a work.
We have not seen Jake's "boxing" ability, and based on that, Hassim looks more powerful. Jake is bringing the unknown, so Jake will win if he brings the best version of himself. This is the fight to watch, out of all the fights to date.
We havent seen his boxing ability because he lacks boxing ability.
I don’t think Hasim, was complaining about the rehydration clause. I might be incorrect… but I’m under the impression he was trying to say, stop telling the people, your fighting a heavy weight and some one bigger than me, when we have clause where I can’t even hydrate after the weightin… that’s my impression, I might be incorrect
I reacted similarly to Geordie when I saw how big Hassim is compared to Jake.
Which is why Hasim is having to cut weight
I’ve been told my nuts wouldn’t be nicked by the past THREE lawnmower X.0’s. Why should I try the 4.0??? My nuts are nicked and bleed EACH time!
Cheers brian, As always. A very well explained fight breakdown for blokes like me, who are football-centric. Cheers mate, can't wait o see what happens in that fight!
Actually it was shitty and I don't think he knows what the fuck he's talking about. The rehydration clause sealed it, he's a dummy.
Tru, u need to understand how important a hydration clause is, of you wanna promote the fight as “im fighting a guy bigger than me” than dont make the rehydration clause
I think the Jake has been smart with picking his opponents by slowly increasing the skill level of each one but this is too big of a jump in skill for him. Bad decision. Pride comes before a fall.
Bro! Well Done 👏🏽 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
If Jake wants to win he needs to get rid of bj Flores. He’s not a good coach and we saw that when Jake fought Woodley TWICE. Yeah he beat Ben and Nate but I would beat those guys too in a similar way. In the gib fight he had Sugar Shane Mosley and he did a good job and there was a lot of good signs
The Nate fight was very technical, but pretty much all his fights he stuck to the game plan, so really it’s up to jake at that point
I agree
Shane Mosley took Jake to the next level. bj Flores was just an assistant coach.
nah you're waffling
@@smarthkaul3981 explain why
Best breakdown yet. I've seen one other guy with great insight but this is by far the best yet. Thank you sir new subscriber for your Xtra channel and main one.
Agreed. Objective analysis. Great insight!
Ultimately this is a win win for Jake, if he by some miracle gets the win he can come out and say he's beaten a boxer and a boxer with a better record than Tommy. If he loses he can say course I lost its a very experienced boxer but I had the guts to step up, take him on and give him a bigger payday than any promoter will at this stage in the guys career. The only downside is losing his 0 record but he isn't trying to become world champ so it's irrelevant if he loses here tbh.
“Irrelevant if he loses here” Besides being a big barking dog who talks a huge game but loses to the first boxer he goes up against in a fight his entire team and brother recommended against him doing with a fighter who really didn’t have much name recognition prior to the fight being signed
@@ShaggyDabbyDank Every fighter in boxing is a big barking dog until they get beat lol If you don't have that about you then you won't get anywhere in boxing, dudes got to sell his fights how do you propose he does it? Ask nicely and only fight people his skill level which is massively lower than what he's about to fight with 0 interest or hype? Lol
The only reason I watch Jake fight is to see him lose. Once he loses I won't watch him anymore.
A bad KO would be a massive L
@@ShaggyDabbyDank His manager and brother said no however his boxing coaches are fine with it which is what matters most as they're the ones who know what level Jake is at
Your videos have been on my timeline the last. Glad i clicked on them i enjoy em. You definetly got a new subscriber keep up the good work!
Great breakdown. Funny how the casuals think Rahman has no chance
Great honest commentary man! Awesome.
True G it Should be noted he was winning the Morrison fight 4 rounds to 0 before getting caught. Not sure if you mentioned yet just starting video.
could happen to anyone btw, you could be winning a 12 round bout until the eleventh, and just a slight mistake can get you knocked out. Can get KO'd by anyone aswell.
Geordies vids are one of the only ones I hit 👍🏼 on before I even watch it.
Top bloke.
I think hasim was out of breath in the 2nd round because this fight for him was a legit test against a true legit fighter so there may have been some nerves I also think the constant pressure from Morrison also probably made him breath heavier because hasim likes to sit on the outside and when you are pressured like that it can mess up your breathing. Also he said he's fought at Cruiserweight before so thats probably more natural for him than being at heavyweight so he might have been too big for that fight against a guy with that style. Hasim will be lighter and against a guy who doesn't apply constant pressure and isn't comfortable in close range who he has fought before so he knows what to expect so those nerves shouldn't be there and hasim can dictate how the fight will go and we have to remember Jake has shown to be gassed into round 3 himself so I have more confidence in hasim and his gas tank than most people would from seeing his last fight. I think hasim can stay on the outside and when Jake trys to go in and clinch hasim can move and land heavy shots to the body and head which Jake has never taken consistently so I'm confident that Jakes tank won't last that well if hasim lands to the body Early and keep Jake at a distance and when Jake trys to clinch go to work because Jake never does that he clinchs alot when someone gets close and thinks he's safe. And hasim can definitely land with ease Jake has no defense in any of his fights and constantly leads with his head so hasim can definitely catch him and hurt him because he will still hit like a heavyweight even at Cruiserweight and Jake has never been faced with that power.
Love these mate keep em coming 👍
Jake hasn't picked the wrong guy. But it's what he wants people to think. And since everyone wants Jake to lose, he makes more money. He's really smart.
He picked a heavyweight and put in a rehydration clause so yeah Jake knows what he's doing
@@shesokayiguessfor sure
Just goes to further prove the guys a joke as a boxer but could have a future as a promoter.
Dude, great assessment. Love the insight.
Geordie: “Who has (Rahman Jr.) fought??”
Also Geordie: “This guy (literally Rahman’s last opponent) is a serious challenge”
Love the video tho man 😂
He seen them highlights n was like nah he’s not bad 😂
I think he meant in the outside world nobody knows who Rahman Jr has fought but in the boxing world they do
Really good unbiased analysis. Enjoyed watching this
2:15 is the reason Jake Paul will lose. If he does win he's got my respect all the way and there's nothing I can do to discredit Jake from being a pro boxer.
True Geordie is so good at explaining in detail no cap
Really good analysis by Geordie..if Paul has a good showing (let alone wins) I will be very shocked..judging by his last performance, I don’t think he wins if hasim rahman is conditioned
Dude so scared he canceled the fight a week before weigh ins lmfao
the mans a legit boxer with good technique and shot selection he's only downside imo is his engine - jake really really has to dig deep or he will get hurt let alone knocked out but dont forget rahman is losing weight he will feel fitter and more energetic having shed 2 stone
With that rehydration clause, it should be pretty easy for Jake to win. Survive one round and he's gonna win. It's a sham, as usual.
@@dreadtrain2846 i wouldnt say pretty easy what so ever, not rehydrating doesnt mean Rahmans skill, confidence, reach, height and experience goes away, too many factors against jake in this one for it to be easy, unless rahman pulls out or doesnt make weight, Jakes in for a long night
@@kole9158 It kind of does though. If he's not allowed to fully rehydrate, it's going to affect all those things. Minus height/reach I suppose. I'm telling you, he's at a SEVERE disadvantage before the fight even begins. I don't care either way, but it's bullshit and shows how little he knows if he thinks the rehydration clause is negligible.
@@dreadtrain2846 we will see
@@kole9158 Yep!
The ducking behind a jab is a good tactic to avoid a counter overhand, often much more common than a counter uppercut, you don't often counter a jab with an uppercut unless you make the read.
I have some feeling Jake knows he's gonna lose this fight, but he wants to show how much he's improved and I think that's the main point
the main point is for him to lose?
@@Ben-io2vo I think everone understands Jake Paul has a slim chance here - his team is likely betting on a long-duration fight bc Jake has a chin and has a chance to knock him out if he gets a lucky shot. Otherwise, the goal of this fight seems to be to show Jake's competence relative to a "real boxer" and to settle that controversy. Regardless of the circumstances, Jake wanted a fight on short notice and likely understands his odds. And if he loses, it's really not a big deal because this is a legit boxer and Jake will very likely show significant improvement relative to his skillset - and it's likely he'll go the distance anyway, so if he were to lose it'd be by a few points here and there. I'm rooting for Jake and Hasim seems like a good guy too - these are just my thoughts.
@@davidlakhter I reckon best bet is for Jake to win on points hasim is a big guy and I don't think Jake has the skill to ko him
Excellent breakdown on the Fight coming up..Thank you!
Ur wrong with hasim he didnt say that because he was complaining he was saying that to expose jake for tryng to make it easier for him when jake has tried to make it look like hes fighting a heavyweight and that he has fought his opponents with no advantage… but if he did say what u ranted about then i would 100% get ur point
Love this analysis. Keep it up bro
IT'S A SET UP! Jake slipped up in an interview where he was talking about his brother saying he shouldn't have taken this. Exact words "My brother said what happens if he accidentally knocks you out?" Slipped up big time.
Theyll just say he meant that if Jake messes up and gets knocked out. But i think we know what was really meant by it. The first Woodley fight Paul got accidentally knocked down and it was ignored. His brothers fight with Floyd was clearly not on the up and up since Floyd accidentally caught him and had to hold him up. The opponents probably sign NDA's because there probably are no knockout clauses in the contracts.
@@Steelfan-oe7ok For sure its all set up. Yeah i remember the instances Floyd holding up his brother and Woodley not hitting properly.
Cant underestimate that dehydration clause. Help be slower mentally and physically, way easier to knock out, fatigued, uncomfortable, potential headaches, and so on.
What a lot of people don't seem to mention is that Tommy also has a terrible habit of managing distance. In a lot of his fights. He clashes into his opponents and gets locked up and isn't able to do long combos because he suffocates his striking distance by smashing into his opponents constantly over and over multiple fights. It was frustrating that Jake and Tyrone were clashing together Everytime and Jake didn't just stay in the edge and pop out shots to open up areas for combos... I hope Jake shows that he doesn't want to continue to perform like that. He has the skills not to and so hopefully he shows that won't be a reoccurring manner he boxes in.
What does Tommy have to do with this when he's not fighting Tommy Fury
What a great breakdown, unbiased thoughts put still some people try to throw shade on u
If Jake wins it then people have to give him credit this time.
4:09 he's not frustrated lmao. u can see he's acting like he's tired (bored) seconds before
@@Spacemanfilms2002 no he is not lol. look at 4:00 he's acting like he's trying to stay awake
Actually more excited to see this fight instead of Tommy Fumbles
Nice points! great observations!
I love when someone breaks down a fighg and not only gives opinions. But continues to justify why they think that way. Great job
Ive watched a couple breakdowns and the interview with BJ. This was the best.
Jake should dance around the ring for 5 rounds and then take advantage of a weight drained, heavily fatigued Hasim jr in the later rounds
hasim will box his head off if he does that 😂
Best breakdown I’ve seen of this fight, thank you for the content
If Jake wins against him people still gonna be like “fight a real boxer” 😂🤦♂️
That doesnt make sense
@@eavesdropper0 yea that’s the point
No they'll say rigged even though they have zero evidence
No they won't
If Jake Paul loses all his fans will say it was a fix
Geordie is friends with the Pauls but keeps it real. Love it bro!
Geordie is criticising rahman for mentioning the rehydration thing and saying it’s fair and weight classes for a reason but jake only fights welterweights
missed the fact that a lot of Hassim's punches were coming from southpaw in those clips, plus he switches back and forth nicely
The only thing I disagree on is at 7:45. Why should we give credit to Jake for taking on a “boxer” isn’t that his job? I mean, Jake calls himself a “pro boxer.” We can’t give more credit to someone when that is the standard/norm.
Because he is going from a 5’9 non boxer to a 6’3 heavyweight boxer with a 12-1 record and over 100 ameature fights….. and this is Jake’s 6th fight
Cuz jake isnt a real boxer but hes fighting a real boxer
because no one gives him credit now. If you already give him credit then sure you don’t have to give him anymore credit. But for those who don’t want to accept him as a boxer unless he fights a proper competition this fight is the one.
@@eavesdropper0 he claims to be a pro boxer so the op is right. He shouldn't get special credit for fighting anothe pro boxer.
@@yvancallan6734 just cuz you claim to be one doesnt make you one. Dont be stupid
Respect to geordie for not knowing much about fighting but still talks about it
Rahman sells himself well and definitely looks the part but after watching his training and some of his fights I wouldn't be surprised if Jake sleeps him. Jakes in a unique position where he can be selective with his opponents, and he picks certain people for a reason. I honestly thought he didn't stand a chance against Woodley and look what happened. He picked Woodley for a reason just like this fight
There's no way Jake is able to work around Hasim's jab lmao
I don’t agree that you said Hasim didn’t fight anybody either. Bro isn’t he like 20-0 and fighting boxers?
He’s 12-1 and got knocked out his last fight the first time he fought someone with a actual positive record
@@realkingrav2265 He is also an actual boxer and if Jake actually beats him, he proves he is at boxer level. Doesn't mean the best tho but it will be a good look for him for sure!
Good video and analysis
Jake making him drop weight class and the rehydration clause is a massive advantage and he coming of a loss jake picked him at his weakest but I think jake bit off more than can chew he has a lot more boxing experience which should make a big difference
Bro what boxer lose all the time. Hasim isn't at his weakest tf lmao
You’re actually at your best when you lose as it makes you rethink and change things up. His dad even said he’s improved as he looked bad in every fight he has been in, which Jake used to make a joke but if it’s true then he used the loss to listen to his dad and coaches to improve and not be lazy/ run out of gas
@@pwners4u true sometimes but after getting knocked out a lot of fighters get gun shy worrying about getting knocked out again so they don’t throw as much it can take a toll on fighters mentality
This is gonna be must see tv 📺
If he throw’s more punches than woodley he’ll win 😂
Appreciate the content here ! Epic
What I will say though. In my mind Jake shouldn’t say he fights a heavyweight if he isn’t fighting Rahman Jr. at heavyweight. Not saying it’s wrong to ask Rahman go down but then don’t flex about it being heavyweight.
The rehydration clause means he can be 215 by lunchtime on fight day - 215 is heavyweight, so on fight night he will theoretically be in there with a heavyweight.
@@christinedugmore Yeah, you have a point there. I still feel that he should be up at heavyweight to say that though. But I guess I see your/his point.
Hasim would’ve beat Jake
I dont know why jake left Shane Mosley. Jake looked the best againt gib than any other fighter and gib is better than nate and ben and that was his first fight 3 years ago and jake looked the best. Than he switched trainers to bj flores for the nate ben and woodley fight where atleast for the tyron fights jake did not look the best and got saved by his ko power and when he didnt get a ko he got a split decision win. I think he should go back to Shane Mosley
Jake didn't leave Mosley. Shane didn't want to continue associating himself with Jake due to the some controversies Jake was involved in at the time so they decided to not continue working together.
Refreshing to listen to someone who knows what he’s talking about and objective. Great video
What jake paul is doing to boxing is... making fights happen! There is so much politics in boxing we have to weight years for the fight we want between different belts ! And when that fight happens both have got soft living the high life or are too old ! I'm sure heavyweights could have 4 fights a year ...
"Wanna treat yourself to a fresh trim", geordie is a gem
My read on Jake during that press conference was that he was ready to get in there. He looked frustrated by not frightened. He has no reason to win this fight but we'd be silly to think that his team would let him take a fight he'd lose
Umm yes he's scared and should be. It was a last minute replacement and based only on his last fight were he got stopped by a heavy hitter by a professional 19-0 heavy hitter. So they think Jake is a "heavy hitter" and beat him with that. But if you watch Rahman's last fight he took a lot a heavy hits again from a PRO heavy hitter. He is fighting a real boxer with a good fight IQ that can take hits and deal out punishment for coming in and missing, something that none of Jake's opponents have done. Only way Jake wins this fight is if it's rigged lol.
@@danielhoffman4026 you probably think you smart ☠️☠️☠️ that’s the sad thing.

@@david_fitzmaurice i can see jake winning if he tires hasim out because his gas tank kinda sucks already but now with a massive weight drop it could be even worse
Great Piece! 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
It would be a terrible fight if it wasn’t for the weight cut and rehydration clause. Hasim is going to be going into that fight depleted. Jake will be 100%. I think that’s going to be a huge advantage for Jake, especially as the fight goes on into the later rounds.
That clause is like Fighting mike tyson at 90 years old without sleeping in 7 days 30 beers in and 1 pound of weed in. Jake gonna be 100%
I love how jordy hasn't had any professional or amateur boxing/kickboxing or mma fights yet somehow he's now an expert on combat sports.
Just when I started to like jake, he's gonna lose.
This Is not only Jake's first time fighting an experienced boxer but also his first time fighting without the size and skills advantage too. All his other opponents were smaller than him by a good amount with little to no boxing skill. This fight will definitely he pivotal for Jake's future and don't think he will win.
This is a good video good to see brian being pretty unbiased here which I know can be hard for him because it’s his mate fighting but good video
