Jake Paul vs Ben Askren happening on 17/04/2021
Once again the American Youtuber known as Jake Paul, who has took up a new strive for fighting, is up for another match in the ring this time against former MMA fighter Ben Askren. With plenty of behind the scenes and press conferences we have seen a lot of what both Askren and Paul are going to bring to this event and ever so surely are raising our expectations for a great fight.
Looking back at both fighters history in the ring it can be seen Jake has only had 3 fights one of which being a white collar fight and the other two were professional boxing matches. Oddly enough, Jake has yet to have fought anyone who has had a proper background in boxing as 2 of his wins were from fellow Youtubers and his 3rd from a former basket ball player. Having no real experience with an experienced fighter we could expect an enjoyable fight from both corners.
During their press conference Jake consistently kept trying to play mind games with his opponent by replaying Askren’s 5 second knockout causing him to lose the match. Askren however kept his cool and didn’t let Jake bother him and throughout the conference the only who seemed agitated was Jake himself.
Our pick:
Askren to win @1/1
Value bet:
Askren to win in rounds 3-4 @10/1
