The Challenge Jake Paul Must Overcome In Round 1 Vs Joshua

If Jake Paul is to have any sort of chance against Anthony Joshua or to even take him some competitive rounds he needs to do this.

Right from the get go.

That’s get inside the leavers and reach of Anthony Joshua through using his mobility and smaller stature and faster feet to cut off the ring and close the distance where appropriate.

Raiding tactics of hitting and moving might be appropriate if he can get in, land, and step off.

To do this he’ll need to be faster than he’s ever been, even with the added weight, he must train for foot speed through conventional and non conventional methods, using science if he wishes, in the coming weeks.

Obviously not being a stationary target too, which, if you look at Paul over the last few years, is something he seldom is really.

He’s turning into an elusive almost slightly defensive style of boxer who counter punches a lot for his fight style, at least in recent bouts.

There are plenty of things he can do to drill foot speed and head movement in the weeks ahead and if he’s watching the Rocky movies on a half day or day of from physical training, he’ll know about chasing and catching chickens for footspeed.

Fast twitch muscles and if the fight does go into the second half of the fight, he might have a perceived better gas tank too than Joshua who hasn’t fought in ages and has been known to tire in the second half of bouts.

Something to look at in the time ahead for him over the next three weeks.

Here’s why the internet will implode if Jake Paul were to knock Anthony Joshua out.
