Bit surprised by the stoppage. Askren was up. Seemed like the end was near but … alas.
— Ariel Helwani (@arielhelwani) April 18, 2021
Oh it’s fight night so a bunch of people thinks it’s a dive or rigged instead of a really inexperienced striker getting the shit knocked out of them

Ben Askren just made $500k plus PPV points for 1 minute of fighting. He might have lost, but the guy is still a winner.

Paul set it up with a jab and a straight right.
Say what you will about Paul, he has power. He has fundamentals. There’s no debating this.
The question is, who’s next and how far can this all go. So far, so good.

We may need you to ask the hard hitting question again.

Stoppage wasn’t great, but Askren was in huge trouble. I dunno. Seems like the fight was made to boost Paul’s ‘authenticity’ and popularity and I bet it worked well at least as far as future paydays go.
