As a fan of boxing I see this as a farce and not good for boxing. Having this TWAT youtuber given a chance to fight a legend is sad. It's not good for the sport, been corrupt for a long time, that we know. Yet legitimizing the youtube freak is not cool

Tyson is  shell of his former self. He is old. Yes he can turn it on for a video for 15 seconds. Can Tyson fight a good journey man who has youth and endurance on his side?  I see Tyson gassing then getting tagged left and right. I doubt his reactions are still in tact.  Even his physique doesn't even look remotely close to how he looked. Tyson in retirement has gone on an alcohol and pot road. He says he has quit the alcohol finally but it's damage is done.  If Tyson doesn't win in a quick convincing manner it will elevate that journey man into something he's not. I just wish Jake would fight some current top five fighter in his weight class.

I too wish this fight weren't happening but unfortunately it's gonna generate a ton of dough.  For that, I'm happy for Mike and anyone on the undercard who benefits from it.  That being said, Jake should not be expected to fight a top 5 fighter yet.  After Tyson, I'd like to see him run it back with Tommy Fury.  If Jake wins there, than somebody in the top 20-25 would be a reasonable expectation.

Still he is going to destroy that white nerd. White people should stick to chess and leave sports to the animals.

Tyson Fury Reckons Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul ‘Pretty Even' Fight: ‘Who’s Not Intrigued?'

Not everybody is on board with Jake Paul's next fight, but Tyson Fury sure is.

After boxing YouTubers, UFC fighters, and pro boxers like Fury's brother, Tommy, Paul (9-1) now takes on an all-time great, who is far past his prime in Mike Tyson (50-6).

The announcement has gotten the attention of the world and concern emerges for Tyson as he will be 58 years old by the time he enters the ring against the much younger and faster Paul on July 20 in Dallas, TX.

As for WBC Heavyweight Champion Fury's thoughts on the controversial matchup, he sees a great opportunity for the sport to grow.

"I think it's fantastic for boxing," Fury told 'The Stomping Ground'. "You've got a legend in Mike Tyson. You've got a YouTube boxer [Jake Paul]. He has come into the game and blew it up and he's got millions of followers and millions of views and millions of eyes. Good, bad or indifferent. Some people love him, some people hate him. So, I think it's a really good spectacle for boxing. Brings a lot of people to the game."

Conor McGregor not alone in Mike Tyson concerns as Jake Paul accusation made

UFC superstar Conor McGregor ripped into the upcoming exhibition bout between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul - and Oscar De La Hoya has aired similar concerns.

Former world champion Oscar De La Hoya has criticised Jake Paul’s decision to fight Mike Tyson as he worries for the boxing icon amid concerns surrounding his age and health. Paul and Tyson are set to meet in a blockbuster exhibition bout this summer, fighting before 80,000 fans at AT&T Stadium as well as the millions due to tune into the event being streamed live on Netflix.

I doubt his reactions are still in tact.  Even his physique doesn't even look remotely close to how he looked. Tyson in retirement has gone on an alcohol and pot road. He says he has quit the alcohol finally but it's damage is done.  If Tyson doesn't win in a quick convincing manner it will elevate that journey man into something he's not. I just wish Jake would fight some current top five fighter in his weight class.

I Don't see it quite that bad.

I thought Tyson gave up drinking years ago when he lost all that weight and really started heavily smoking weed.

I would say that smoking weed would be problematic but he does still train boxing. He went 6 rounds with Roy Jones Jr a few years ago and wasn't completely gassed.

So, I see this fight being similar to the RJJ farce, there's probably a handshake agreement to pull their punches. It will go the distance and result in a draw. I don't follow Jake Paul. Ive seen some of his highlights.  He's not a terrible boxer. He's beaten guys who were professional fighters and even mma champions. The only boxers he actually fought were undersized and the one, Tommy Fury, actually beat him
 Tommy is a light heavyweight and Paul fights around 190 - 200 lbs, i think? His proportions make him look larger than he really is. Id guess Tyson is probably around 210 - 215. He doesn't have the same muscle as his youth, where he weighed around 220 -225 but he's still muscled.

As an older fighter it's fairly easy to look impressive in training.  Hitting the bag, hitting the pads, skipping rope etc... but the reflexes/reaction time is different,  joints are stiff, the punch resistance and overall shock absorption are totally different. Notice Mike isn't doing any actual sparing?

In summary:

It's hard to know how much Mike has left. He still trains but smokes weed and is 58 years old.

Paul isn't great but he also isn't an entirely bad boxer either. He may actually be smaller than Mike.

In order to continue for each to make money/save face, expect a scripted waltz with manufactured drama and an amenable result for both.

That is not true it was an exhibition between two guys who respected each other. Tyson and JP do not respect each other. JP wants to get a highlight KO on Mike and Mike knows it. His only defense is to KO JP. The big difference is Tyson mindset he didnt want to be fighting his last couple real fights. He wasn't having fun against Roy. Now he is having fun and he wants to fight that is a big problem for JP.
