MMA legend Matt Brown doesn’t believe that Jake Paul was there to defeat Anthony Joshua in their boxing clash last week.

On Friday night, Jake Paul went head to head with Anthony Joshua in a blockbuster crossover boxing match. It took place at heavyweight, it was fully sanctioned, and Paul was going up against a legitimate former heavyweight champion of the world. He spent a large portion of the fight circling and running away from AJ, and at some points, he even decided to try and go for a takedown.

Ultimately, though, Anthony Joshua landed the decisive blow with a knockout punch that rendered Jake Paul unable to continue.
