You might be forgiven for thinking that the Clown Planet of Influencer Boxing is a relatively new invention. But pulling back the curtain we can trace the roots of the worst trend of the 2020's all the way back to the 1940's. Come with me as we investigate the world of freakshow and spectacle fights, through 80 years of combat sports and the eventual birth of the worst thing to happen to the MMA landscape: Jake Paul.

Had to come back to this after seeing Jake in the worst boxing match ive seen in my life.

Me before the video: I don't know shit about MMA or matches
Me after the video: MINOWAMAN'S MY FUCKIN HERO 😭

Also: It's always funny to me how Jake fought one legit fighter, Tyson Fury's brother (who isn't even particularly good), lost, and went straight back to fixed fights against retirees.

bruh, this was such a nice video when it was about Minowaman and then suddenly it was about parents pimping out their kids to jake paul and i wanted to cry

That Minowaman segment was legit inspiring, he's like an honest to life anime protagonist.

Saw the Jake Paul mauling and had to come back to watch this again

“Beating Tito in boxing nowadays is probably about as difficult as beating him in scrabble.”

Quality journalism aside, you have hands down some of the best shade ever thrown 😂

"his body was so broken, he had the mobility of a Resident Evil 1 character"-best line ever!

@callumjohnston858 2 years ago

Not gonna lie, I needed that Minowaman story today. A few things haven't been going well for me recently, but like Minowaman, it's not about the wins. It's fighting that makes it worthwhile.

That final minowaman monologue about punk ethos almost moved me to tears. Immaculate writing.

@skeletor8212 3 years ago

Minowa Man may be my new favorite person. That’s exactly the story I needed during finals week

What's incredibly sad about Dempsey going broke is that he gave an enormous donation to the benefit vets and the military, then years later he was attacked by the IIRS because he did not pay taxes on the donation, which of course he had no idea he had to do

"I see some battle wounds and some bruises, that's good"
Kills me every time.

It’s about damn time someone put some respect on Minowamans name. He’s still fighting now. He recently said “ I have been an open weight fighter but from now on I will fight as a heavyweight.”

Calling McGregor vs Mayweather a "Glitter rolled turd" was the perfect analogy, I can't stop laughing at that!

What I love about this video is that it baits normie audiences into an MMA History Class. Napoleon is way above spending over an hour on Jake Paul.

@Ooknabah 3 years ago

Very classy handling of Garcia vs Hota. That fight was enough of a joke without having to take cheap shots.

1:00:09 unfathomably based beyond all human comprehension.

"Then something strange started happening to his career: he started winning." is a marvelous piece of prose. You deserve way more exposure. Here's hoping you get it.

Average YouTuber: gets into topic of video immediately afraid of losing audience.
Napoleon: gets into video topic after hour and a half build up only to talk about video topic for 20 minutes and refuses to elaborate🗿
