The WBA just ranked Jake Paul at #14 in the cruiserweight division. He beats a half-alive Chávez Jr., and now he’s title material? F*** off.
The WBA’s been a clown show for years. Belts for everyone — super, regular, gold, interim — like it’s a raffle. Now they’re giving legitimacy to a guy who built his resume on corpses and cash-outs.
This isn’t boxing. It’s influencer marketing. Jake Paul brings clicks, and the WBA bent over for it. No shame, no standards, just desperation.
Real Fighters Get Buried
If you’re a real cruiserweight — fighting killers for crumbs, bleeding in silence — this should make your blood boil. While you grind in obscurity, Paul skips the line with a camera crew and a padded record.
He’s boxed journeymen and retirees. His fights are exhibitions disguised as competition. Yet the WBA sticks him on the rankings like he earned it?
It’s not about who’s the best — it’s about who brings traffic. Jake Paul is a sideshow, not a contender. And the WBA just admitted they’ll rank clowns if it sells.
Put Him In With a Real One — Watch Him Fold
Put Paul in with Dorticos, Ramirez, or any top-30 killer, and he’s unconscious in six minutes. That’s not hate — it’s reality.
Boxing didn’t trip here. It shot itself in the face. Letting YouTubers cut the line while real fighters waste away is how you kill the last of your credibility.
The WBA’s done. They didn’t just sell out — they threw the whole sport in the bin.
