Tyson vs. Paul

[bhank]

They've put on stuff like this for decades - Boxer vs Martial Arts expert, Boxer vs Football Player, Wrestler vs Bull, Wrestler vs Bear, etc.... The only difference is that social media has allowed more people to know about it, and the money social media attracts allows more big names to become interested in doing it.

Man loves a spectacle.

In this scenerio Paul is not a youtuber that is what people dont get. Is he a world beater no. Is he a decent cruiserweight boxer? Yes he is. Doas he have natural ko power? Yes he does. Mike Tyson was a world beater but he is 57 years old. Jake Paul at 27 years old being a decent boxer with power is the rightful favorite. But if Mike puts some heart into it we may see something special. Tyson does not want to be a highlight real he has pride and a legacy to protect.

the mystique tyson carries is unreal even though he is one of the most overated hw champs . people seem to forget, he quit in his last two fights got his head taken off by lewis and also did not have roy jones in trouble who has been kod many times.  also alot of his training footage is old from 4 years ago, i hope he wins but will not be surprised if he loses. all this is , is a easy cash grab where else would tyson make 20 million

I have Netflix. 
Mike was beyond washed 20 years ago.
You're latching onto the head gear too tightly.
His last exhibition was 2 minute rounds with big ass gloves.
That being said, I've forgotten more about boxing than you know.

people forget he quit against danny williams and kevin mcbride and lennox lewis took his soul.  most overated hw champion of all time.

He didn't even want to be fighting his mental health was shit he is in a different place mentally now. JP also ain't no Lennox Lewis. However yeah he is 57 he should lose but if anyone that age can do it can do it Mike can do it.

Mike didnt want to fighting by the time he got to his last two fights. He also wasnt trying to ko Jones but he did enough to convince people this fight is legit he got himself in good shape and put up a good show vs Jones. He lost like 100lbs to fight jones he didnt have to do that this time he has stayed in shape since Jones, He actually wants to fight now big big difference.

Shit they had him on zoloft and shit those last 2 fights he said he is coming off all meds for this wants to be the killer of old, Dude is talking about god of war and growling when he runs how can you not want to see this. Tyson is putting up daily videos showing his footwork he is promoting the shit out of this. When have we ever had this kind of access to Tyson before a fight. This is great stuff

Are they that smart, or as we as a society, that stupid?

It is not stupid to ask. Yes, we are that stupid.

It is a sanctioned fight 8 rounds will go on their pro records

This should end all talk of fight fixing and prearranged outcomes it is illegal to fix a sanctioned fight of course at this level it just doesn't make financial sense for either party to take a dive. A win means another big fight for more money and potentially more after that. A loss ends one of their careers.
