Here’s How To Stream The Jake Paul-Ben Askren TRILLER Card

Jake Paul had the game face on, while Ben Askren went with the dad bod and a chill attitude at the weigh in today in Atlanta for the Saturday showcase for the You Tuber, who is stepping up in class from his last foe.

Down went Nate Robinson on the Mike Tyson-Roy Jones PPV undercard last year, but can Paul, the Ohio upstart, do the same to a person who has made fighting, not hoops, a career?

Askren scaled in at 191 pounds, a jumbo step up from the 170 pounds or less class he participated in while doing MMA. Paul was 191.5, while his trainer, ex pro BJ Flores, and a massive robot-costumed man, his mascot, looked on. Paul told emcee Ray Flores that he thinks Askren isn’t taking this challenge seriously, as evidenced by the soft midsection. “I don’t think he makes it out of two rounds,” Paul stated. Askren tried to get in the last word, busting on Paul’s hairline as Jake left the stage.

You can whet your appetite with a free-view hour, and then the PPV kicks off at 9 PM ET.
