I think a 57-year-old Tyson could hurt him badly because he is not a boxer. I just don’t think Tyson wants to hurt him.


Agree.... IF the bout was even 25% legit. Tyson may not want to hurt Paul OUT of the ring. IMO that possibly changes once he's in the ring.

At first glance this match is pure WWE. The Wild Card is Tyson's predictable unpredictability.

In a real match Mike Tyson would NOT want to be embarrassed by Paul or whomever. As it is even in a "staged" match, his killer instinct in the ring might kick in.

NOT taking Tyson's 57 year old mind and fist to follow the script and NOT hurt Paul is still a gamble. (Paul, sensing this might dance around a lot, jabbing and trying to tire Tyson out a bit (juuust in case Iron Mike suddenly feels frisky.)

This is a match I'd like to see -- yes, even as scripted.

wonder how much money it took to get Tyson to agree to this stunt.


If Mike Tyson was willing to take money to do gay shite with P-Diddy...this is nothing.

I was just maybe starting to think Jake Paul was taking the boxing route seriously by fighting tomato can "professional" boxers and upping the level of intensity gradually like legit boxers, but then an event like this makes me realize it's all just for money and entertainment and Paul is a great self promoter.

Mike Tyson training at 57 years old

Roy Jones Jr. is a legendary boxer though. If Tyson doesn't knock out Jake Paul within 3 rounds, it's a fix. Unless Paul runs the entire fight.

Sadly, I will tune in. I might even try to see it on person, seeing Tyson fight in person was always a bucket list thing. Obviously, I'm not expecting prime Tyson.

Mike might be on PEDS. I hope so, honestly. If he is, he's going to kill Paul.

Of course there's a very good chance that he loses this fight. But if he was 20 years younger, it wouldn't even be a fair fight.

It’s still not a fair fight. Tyson would kill him if he wanted.

Assuming Tyson comes in in shape he literally could kill him if he wanted to



I can totally agree with this. The very last thing to go for a boxer is his power. The legs and quick reflexes usually go first. Boxing is all about conditioning to be able to go the rounds the fight is contracted for.

A guy could hit like a mule, but if he's only good for 3 rounds in a 10 round fight, he's likely going to lose.

I’m not a big Tyson fan. But it would be nice to see him put Paul on his arse.

You mean Tyson's legacy of being a wife abuser, rapist, ear eater, and all around insane behavior and actions since Cus D'amato died. Tyson frick up any boxing legacy after that. He's been a joke ever since Buster Douglas put him on his arse
But he did a cameo in a funny movie so it's all good.

Imagine getting paid millions for your buddy Mike Tyson beating the shite out of you and then you both go party afterward and talk about what to do with your earnings.
Unreal.
