Ben Askren admits he could lose to Jake Paul: \u201cThere\u2019s a chance he\u2019s really good\u201d YouTube: IMPAULSIVEBen Askren admitted he could lose against Jake Paul in their upcoming fight if he ends up being \u201creally good,\u201d but doesn\u2019t think that will be the case due to his questionable skill and experience. It\u2019s still hard to believe that a fight between Ben Askren and Jake Paul is actually happening. The discrepancy in their combat experience is unnerving. But it\u2019s around the corner now, and the hype is real. To help promote the fight, Logan Paul invited Ben to appear as a guest on Episode 272 of the Impaulsive Podcast. It was a surprisingly wholesome conversation from start to finish. But inevitably, at one point, he started talking about Jake\u2019s legitimacy as a fighter, and he\u2019s actually a bit worried. \u201cHe beat up a YouTuber and a basketball player who likely has never been in any type of fight in his whole life,\u201d Askren said. \u201cWhat about that makes him good?\u201d \u201cHe\u2019s only fought two times against guys who weren\u2019t really all that high level. So, his skill as a combat athlete probably is not that high yet, and it\u2019s going to take a while to get there.\u201d Read More: Jake Paul accused of sexual assault – Interestingly, Ben admitted he could lose the fight, but it depends on how good Jake really is. \u201cThere\u2019s a chance he\u2019s really good. And if he\u2019s really, really good, he\u2019s going to beat me.\u201d However, Askren is confident that won\u2019t happen. \u201cHave you ever [seen] a kid warming up, and you\u2019re like, \u2018damn, he\u2019s kind of slick.\u2019 Then you see him out there in [a] match, and it\u2019s not going his way, and he\u2019s not the same guy anymore. He\u2019s a different guy. That\u2019s kind of what I\u2019m expecting.\u201d April 17 is fast approaching, and only then will we know once and for all who will be the winner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
