YouTube sensation Jake Paul is gearing up for the toughest fight of his rising boxing career against former reality show star, Tommy Fury. The two social media sensations are scheduled to face off in Saudi Arabia in one of the biggest influence boxing fights ever. Despite the main event garnering all the attention the undercard also features some good matches. This included the first fight between undefeated boxer Bader Samreen and Viorel Simon.
However, this fight failed to live up to the expectations as it ended in the first round with Samreen adding another win to his record. The Jordanian boxer added his seventh stoppage win after the 41-year-old succumbed to the pressure in the first round itself.
Although the fight was a mismatch on paper with Simon losing six of his last seven fights, the first-round victory was certainly unexpected. Moreover, the fans were quick to jump on sharing their thoughts on the fight as they reacted to Samreen’s victory.
