Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul - The Fight of the Century

[Guest]

Will you watch?

There is backlash against Paul, for fighting a man nearly 60 years of age, but they are choosing to fight.

This has been brewing in the fight world for years, so was only a matter of time.

I can't blame them for doing this as it's a big easy payday for both of them.

But I certainly wouldn't pay to watch it live.

Definitely couldn't drop thousands on it, but if I was entertaining friends, would purchase the PPV.

I don't see this as a good move for Tyson. He's pushing 60, and is rich. Doesn't need to prove anything.

Risks doing unnecessary damage to his brain, but the pay must be massive for him to do so.

Tyson will still murder Paul...even at 58.

 

I would pay to watch Tyson kill a man. The question is...will Tyson kill Paul or just f**k him up?

Tyson actually likes Paul, so his usual anger won't be present.

This will just be textbook, surgical Tyson before the death of the coach who got him started.

Win win for both if Tyson gets cleared to fight.

High earning night for both.

Unless he could secure Mayweather, I just don't see how Paul tops this.

I would retire if he lost, if I were him.

I saw the fight, and it looks like father time caught up to Tyson. His legs are shot. That is to be expected for a 58 year old man. For the first couple of rounds, it looked like Tyson would win, but then his legs quit on him. Paul wisely kept his distance from Tyson, since it seemed every time he came close, Tyson landed some shots, and would have knocked Paul out. Paul fought smart, and took advantage of his reach advantage, and was mainly throwing jabs against Tyson.

Overall it was a lousy fight. Not worth spending money on seeing.
