Down Bad: Evander Kane Begging Jake Paul to fight him

[joemon999]

As we all know, Evander Kane is in a massive amount of debt. So the man has now resorted to going on Twitter to beg Jake Paul to fight him.

Is this fight going to happen? Would you watch it? Would the NHL allow him to do it while he's under contract? Do you even care?

Would the NHL his creditors allow him to do it while he's under contract?

I'm pretty sure his SPC has a clause in it preventing him from partaking in activities that could result in injuries.

I highly doubt he'd be allowed to fight while under contract.

If I were his creditors, I would be sitting ring side poppin champagne knowing I'm finally getting my money

 

[surixon]

Would Kane even be a good enough draw to generate decent cash for the fight?

Imagine squandering not only the tens of millions of dollars you already have, but also the thirty million owed to you.

Lmao!

Kane does not have to be the draw, Jake Paul is the draw. Ben Askren was a retired out of shape UFC fighter and for 3 minutes and one weak KO punch got the biggest payday of his career.

Some of it. He's still got $26m to earn them on his NHL contract which could be jeopardized by getting involved in sideshow acts.

Kane does not have to be the draw, Jake Paul is the draw.

Sure but I'm sure who he fights has an impact on the amount of interest and therefore cash it will generate.

There is a difference between boxing an ex NBA player and an NHL player in terms of recognition.

It would be so Jake Paul to not fight Kane knowing how desperate he is for money.

 

[tarheelhockey]

Let me know when someone successfully challenges Jake Paul to a duel.

Yeah on second thought Jake Paul is not the draw, the draw is seeing Jake Paul finally fighting a real fighter and finally getting his head taken off.

The reaction to him fighting another non boxer would just be a big "ugh OK this kid is a joke and I'm not wasting my time and money on another round 1 KO and then getting angry at how Paul thinks he is the greatest fighter of all time"

Evander Kane is small potatoes to the Paul brothers empire. If Jake is willing to risk his 3-0 record against Floyd Mayweather that's gonna make so much more money than this hypothetical fight.

Edit: To clarify, Logan is fighting Mayweather in a few weeks. Mayweather will defeat Logan. If Jake decides to fight Mayweather that would make so much more money than a Kane fight which would not move the needle at all.

 

[North Cole]

Wow hes totally off the deep end. Pretty sad. Relegated to starting fights on social media in the hopes of being a picked by some sideshow act.

Insane how much cash this guy wasted in his life. Seems his pride went with it.

Maybe the sharks hope he gets into the fight so they can terminate his contract.

 

[Jacob]

Damn can’t imagine how this guy squandered tens of millions of dollars. If it could happen to him it could happen to anyone!

 

[Tairy Greene]

Can't say I wouldn't watch. Kane is probably a better human being than Jake Paul but I might find it more satisfying seeing him lose, which he likely would.

Probably gambled most of it if I would have to guess

Evander Kane is a nobody to the Paul brothers. Can't believe I had to type that out. Evander better watch out because Jake Paul is ruthless and would absolutely just destroy him on social media.

In 90's you saw these celebrity matches free on MTV.

 

[joestevens29]

Wait Floyd gave Paul a black eye? When did this happen?

 

[TheFinalWord]

Wait Floyd gave Paul a black eye? When did this happen?

Floyd is really attached to his hat.

 

[MadLuke]

That pushing it the to scared (the guy will be fighting a small and aging but arguably the best boxer or all time next month...), Jake Paul has been training a lot for a while (since 2018 at least) with some very impressive training partner and coaches, he would not be easy to beat at all for an non boxer (or small boxer).

 

[Willy Stylez]

Evander seems desperate in his situation, I don't blame him.

 

[Bondurant]

Money Mayweather moves the needle. Evander Kane does not.
