Buzzkills and lemmitors fuck directly off, thanks.

Got an idea for a meme you aren't sure is ready for the spotlight? Post that low effort garbage here for the rest of us to enjoy!

I didn't even know it was happening and I hate all of you for informing me it happened at all.

[–] FrostyTrichs@walledgarden.xyz 10 points 6 days ago

Tbf I found out about it last night in a similar fashion lol

[–] ImplyingImplications@lemmy.ca 31 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Shaq was literally at the fight though...

My eyes don't work when I'm sleeping mate.

Ew wtf is with the dumb ass watermark in the center

[–] superweeniehutjrs@lemmy.world 20 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I think it's fitting of the community

[–] donuts@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

It's too much effort for a low effort community

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 3 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Genuinely not sure who it was even for.

If you don't like boxing, you weren't going to enjoy it.

For people who pretend they like boxing?

[–] Maalus@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

It was for all the people talking about it all the time.

[–] Oxen@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 6 days ago (3 children)

Wow. I didn't watch the fight because I knew he would take a dive, but I didn't want to believe it or see it. The (no longer) baddest man on earth just threw away his legacy and reputation for a few bucks...

[–] Warl0k3@lemmy.world 14 points 6 days ago (17 children)

$20 million is one hell of an incentive to take a dive....

I don't think it was a dive as much as it was that he is a 58 year old man with knee problems fighting a trained 27 year old in their prime.

[–] Oxen@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 6 days ago

A 58 year old silverback gorilla with a team of doctors pumping him full of roids and other performance enhancers. He had the chance to show the world he's still a beast, but he took the the paycheck to promote JP instead.

JP never faced a proper opponent in a proper fight.

[–] Aermis@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

A 27 year old who has never fought a boxer prospect in his own weight and picks fights with MMA fighters who can only throw punches or retirees. In a fight that's almost always a publicity fight.

[–] giantofthenorth@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Boxing is all about cardio. A 58 year old vs a 27 year old when they both train is always going to that 27 year old. Mike Tyson going the distance is still impressive as hell

[–] Oxen@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 6 days ago

Though Tyson most likely has quadruple the testosterone of a healthy 27 year old man coursing through his system, on top of whatever other performance enhancers lol

He did make the bookies quite happy.

[–] Pilferjinx@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

Tyson has an huge ego, at least he did when he was still professional. He was getting smacked by childish moves me and my brothers would've used. It probably hurts a bit even with the 20 million he got.

[–] dditty@lemm.ee 15 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Idk I didn't watch the fight but I was hoping Mike Tyson (even now out of his prime) could've knocked out Jake Paul. Sad it didn't turn out that way.

[–] FrostyTrichs@walledgarden.xyz 12 points 6 days ago

I think this is probably how most people felt, and the powers that be did a great job of taking advantage of it. As a good friend put it- "They got the hate watch on lock"

I said I would stick around until it buffered one more time. Ended up going to bed before the fight started. Fight was lost by 0KB.

[–] rayquetzalcoatl@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago (4 children)

I don't get it, did people really think Paul would lose?

[–] Reddfugee42@lemmy.world 11 points 6 days ago

I don't get it, did people really ~~think~~ hope Paul would lose?

[–] jaemo@sh.itjust.works 6 points 6 days ago

If you were naive and basing your evaluation on talent: yes.

If you were canny to how the shell game works: 😂

[–] FrostyTrichs@walledgarden.xyz 4 points 6 days ago

did people really think

Sadly no

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I don't even know who this Paul guy is, but people seem to really dislike him.

[–] Speculater@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Remember the YouTuber who showed the bodies of men who had died by suicide hanging from trees? This is his brother. Trash people who are good at making people hate them.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

Thankfully, no.

[–] Ookami38@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 days ago

I saw some really good fights that night. Went to an armored MMA event. Did not disappoint.

[–] urheber@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 4 days ago

people who had no idea what was happening until they woke up this morning.

Fuck you lot.
