At the end of the day, Jake is working his tail off and he seems very focused on achieving his goals. He's already made a ton of money so I really believe he wants respect and to be taken seriously. Regardless, I'd be very surprised if he pulls this off. Hasim is bigger, stronger and has a ton more experience - if they fight for real I just don't see him losing this fight
