Was the crowd chanting "Let's go Saul"?

Last 2 rounds so close, so much holding though, not many big punches yet...

Is there a reason they don't throw body shots? Those seem like the worst if you're not a boxer

Paul has zero takedown defense

I have it somewhere between 5-0 Woodley and 5-0 Paul. Torn on every choice in between.

Seems like perfect timing for Jake Paul Vs Conor McGregor from a $$$ perspective. Before either of them are left ridden off for dead by a loss, or in Conor's case another loss, the hype for this event I think would be really big amongst the public.
I think Conor pushed it off in the past but it's perfect timing now for him considering that knockout blow from Jake Paul against another MMA fighter.
This is probably the best time for this event to happen and after the event Conor can ride off into the sunset regardless of the outcome.
p.s. he still can, regardless of taking on this fight or not, but this is probably his last potential shot at a huge pay day unless he actually wants to train and show he can compete in the MMA again.

I mean, I know he hasn't fought any boxers, but it's fairly impressive the way JP has been knocking everyone out cold, including 2 MMA fighters now.

Right before the KO, Tyron had his hands up in a good defensive stance. Then Jake crouches down and winds back and it looks like he's going to throw a body shot. Instead he goes for the head and at the exact moment Woodley pulls his arm down. That was a thing of beauty.
The other thing of beauty was that Tyron Woodley takedown. All he really did is stand up a bit using Jake's weight against him and then shifted his body to dump Jake Paul on the ground. He did use 1 arm to hold Jake but essentially it was all leg and neck strength. Mike Tyson could have used some of that boxing takedown knowledge for his fight against Lennox Lewis.
Anyways there was 1 beautiful knockout and 1 beautiful takedown, so I judged it a draw. Good job everyone. I didn't find it nearly as boring as the commentators did.

Also, Frank Gore was funny as hell. His reactions to getting hit was like "WTF, why he hitting me. Should be a 15 yard penalty" There was a point where he put his hands down and just stared out into the crowd as if there wasn't a boxing match going on and then he got clobbered right on the chin and suddenly he had this look on his face like he was a victim of an assault or something.

GGG looked very old today. Slow, clearly hurt to the body. I don't think it's close if he fights Canelo again this year sadly.

Yep, GGG already went 1-0-1 against Canelo and everyone but Byrd knows it. Ending his career by suffering a stoppage loss to prime Canelo serves no one but fans of CTE

Spence looks good but man hard to be a larger than life prize fighter in that attire, jeez dude, you think marvin hagler would be caught dead fighting in some fluorescent colors?
Sam Cassell seems bewildered in there
more likely to be upset over the next few weeks.....Canelo or Fury?....I bet all 3 of these guys in a parlay today thinking none are gonna lose, came out to -140

Canelo is going to get too big for his britches at some point. RJJ was top 10 all time and eventually the travel up the weight took it's toll.
Fury will win as long as he gives a ****, so flip a coin I guess
