'Part of me wants to see him get beat up' 😳
Askren was known for his elite-level grappling skills and distinct lack of striking ability during his MMA career, which ended after an exciting UFC run.
However, when he was matched against ‘The Problem Child’, many expected Askren to upset the odds as he had fighting experience unlike anyone else on Paul’s CV. After suffering a loss to the former Disney actor, Askren retired again and sat back to watch his long-time friendThe former UFC welterweight king suffered a controversial split decision defeat against Paul, who knocked him out cold in a rematch a few months later.
While Askren was obviously gutted to see his pal lose, he also admits that the fact Paul was able to beat such a talented striker, makes him feel better about his defeat to the 25-year-old. “I was really disappointed when Tyron lost. As far as it looks on me, it actually looks alright because Jake Paul is significantly better than we thought he would be,” he told talkSPORT.
