Jake Paul v Mike Tyson 

Sat 4am

60,000 people going to be there apparently.

  Tyson is 58 FFS ! 

 Real boxing fans will no doubt hate it.  

 Betting odds are interesting as well. 1/2 Jake Paul to win must be a good bet ? 

 Any thoughts? Or do most here not care ?

Surprised bookies are taking bets tbh. Smells like a fix. 

It shouldn’t be happening because amateurs shouldn’t box professionals and people shouldn’t box at all at Tyson’s age in a competitive fight. I saw some footage of Jake Paul ‘sparring’. The other bloke wasn’t even trying to hit him and he looked shite. I’ve never seen a proper boxer lead with their head. Any half decent amateur would fucking murder him

Either Tyson knocks him out in the first two rounds or it ends up a boring clinch fest with Paul winning on points.

 

The real fight is on just before it anyway.

Having now seen some of the pre-fight clips on Twitter I reckon Tyson vs Joe Biden would now be a 50/50 fight. That fucker has taken far too many punches.

Some of Tyson's pad work I've seen clips of Tyson look so insane that I am convinced they've been sped up to make him look better. That being said, he lands one clean shot on the you tuber and he's on a manslaughter charge because Paul is woefully bad.

 

Jake Paul got outboxed by Tommy Fury (who is uber shit) so he can't handle actual boxers, which is why he's picking fights with 60 year olds and retired MMA fighters.

 

This is an exhibition as far as I can tell so should just be them two fucking about but Jake Paul is going to try and knock him out just so he can brag that he knocked out Mike Tyson. Which is meaningless since Tyson got knocked out 6 times by actual boxers in his actual career so this would just be a 20 something taking liberties on an almost pensioner - which is why I hope Tyson murders him, if nothing more than to end this you tube boxing craze :lol:

I hope Tyson schools him, which of course he will if he doesn't throw it. Even at that age I doubt the YouTuber could lay a glove on him, but i suspect the Jake Paul gravy train will continue and Toy Bellew will be next line. Surely at some point pride will kick in and a former pro will put an end to this circus. Let the YouTubers "boxers' fight each other and stop bringing the sport into disrepute with this nonsense.

A phrase I never thought to see used in connection with boxing

Jake Paul shouting, screaming "im  going to fucking kill him" and  "he's fucking going to fucking die" and lots more swearing in an interview after the slap.

 I can see how proper boxing fans are cringing at this.

 I hope after seeing that swearing rant that Tyson knocks the dickhead clean out.

Caught the last two rounds of the Tyson/Paul farce on my break. 
 

Unsurprisingly, as it went the distance, Paul won on points. 
 

Tyson looked in fantastic shape for a near-60yr old bloke, but he just didn’t have the reaction time to get his punches in. 
 

Paul looked like what he is, a tubby joke. 
 

When it comes down to it, Paul couldn’t knock out a pensioner who was in survival mode from round 2.  
 

Glad Tyson wasn’t hurt tbh.

When Tyson fought Lewis Ritchie Woodhall on the BBC commentary said that Tyson isn’t even a shadow of his former self. That was 22 years ago
