i get the hate for jake but im a fan. he's inspirational. dude had absolutely no place in the boxing world but really dedicated his life to the sport and takes it serious. helped out all these boxers and makes everyone aware of fighter pay in the UFC. dude has done a lot of cringe but just as much good.

Exactly how I feel

[@chim_7]

People don‘t realize that Jake was only a young kid when he got incredibly famous over night. He has been a silly idiot, but probably most of us have been when we were young and dumb. IMO most of the people who hate on him are just jealous of his success and intimidated by his confidence and put on arrogance (which is part of his internet persona).

[@MalphasMikaelson]

Look at Justin Bieber, seemed like a good kid but getting thrown into that life at a young age can be difficult, we see it so many kids, teens, or young adult "stars". I think he honestly has done pretty well, people hate him for pretty dumb stuff to be honest.

[@pdboomin2]

Can’t deny the fact JP is doing great things for boxing. Love em or hate

[@PabzRoz]

facts

[@loobert22]

I have to disagree. You see, a snake is actually incapable of doing every single thing which would be great for boxing. First of all a snake cannot speak= cannot promote a fight or contribute to any press conferences. 2nd a snake cannot write or use social media= cannot build up any hype on social media prior to the fight. Finally a snake cannot throw a punch because it does not have arms and hence has absolutely no boxing 🥊 ability. So you see, snake Paul is actually not doing great things for boxing, he is actually irrelevant and what I like to call a big fat mess.

[@vicdman9577]

I'm so proud of this kid.good job Jake.

[@loobert22]

It's easy to be fooled by his human costume I know, but this is actually a snake in disguise. Snake Paul will get what's coming to him.
