Blame the game, not the player. If I could get millions for fighting a 60-year old, I would too.
I'll be rooting for Tyson but I won't be paying to see it.

Mike Tyson to fight Jake Paul
- Thread starter simply1
- Start date
Maybe. I think part of him really does fancy himself a real boxer with championship potential, but another part of him knows that he'd get curb stomped against legit fighters in their prime.
The Paul brothers are basically the Kardashian's on meth. Became huge for no reason at all, turned it into a huge pile of money, and people can't turn away.
It's lucrative to be the heel. Where's all my CF cash for being an ass?
Sounds like it's on Netflix. Not sure if I have to pay for anymore than my normal netflix account though. Ill have to figure that out.

Heart: The 1980's kid who played Mike Tyson's Punch-Out! back in the day expects Tyson to destroy Paul with one well-timed uppercut
Head: 30-year age difference matters. Paul will out-endurance Tyson and he (Tyson) will look worn out by the end of the match. No one gets knocked out. It will end as a very boring affair.

I didn't know this fight was going to be on Netflix until watching the Tom Brady roast. Was that always the case or a recent development?
Netflix was named in the op, not sure if anything had been discussed before that.
If Mike can't get him knocked out in the first round or two, I think Paul has a pretty good chance of going the distance.
That said, all it takes is one punch and Tyson does have a crap load of experience and knows all the tricks. The question is if the body can do what the mind wants.
There's no way Tyson is going in there to end Jake Paul early. I have no doubt there's been an unwritten agreement here that Tyson is not to go all in on knocking the guy out or hurting him. He may be 58 but yes, he still has filthy punching power.
Then it's even dumber than I originally though if that's the case.
They've already stipulated they'll be wearing much heavier gloves than usual to lessen the impact of Tyson's power.
I know, it's just really stupid. I think they were probably going to wear head gear originally but they took major heat for that from the fans. It's not a real competition so I probably won't watch.
By the time the fight rolls around I wouldn't be surprised if they make Tyson wear these...
And JP will still be talking about how he's gonna put Iron Mike to sleep.
Paul is a decent amateur boxer but how can he look himself in the mirror being half Tyson's age and deadening Mike's punches with those gloves? What a giant load mouth wuss.By the time the fight rolls around I wouldn't be surprised if they make Tyson wear these...

And you can absolutely die
