A 58 year old George Foreman would have killed Jake Paul.

George Foreman won the actual Heavyweight Championship at 46 years old..
Tyson had no chance because he is a little guy who relied on speed and explosiveness.
Tyson blew his knee out late in his career and was seen in recent years being wheeled through airports in a wheel chair.
He is a short guy who no longer had the legs to close the distance.
George Foreman is a massive guy with heavy punch.
At 58 George Foreman still had enough of what made him great to have dismantled Jake.
I mean he won the real Heavyweight Championship at frigging 46.
Tyson was the perfect old guy for Jake to fight, a short guy with a short reach and no legs whatsoever to get close.
Big George would have just methodically stalked Jake like he did everyone in his comeback.
George was so massive that Jake wouldn't have landed a punch.

Possibly. Foreman had some of the heaviest hands in boxing.
Tyson’s issue is he relied so much on explosion and getting inside on his opponent. That’s one of the first things you lose as you get older. You could even see it after his comeback against guys with reach like Lewis and Holyfield. That ability to quickly close the distance through the jab was weaker. At 58 he showed very brief flashes in the first few seconds of a round but then Paul just kept the distance and made him a counter puncher and that’s never been his game.

Foreman began mailing it in after he beat Moorer. At 58 he'd do that clam she'll defense and it would have been less active than last night.
