Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul

[Eric 26]

My perspective is a bit different in that I felt Jake Paul had a 2 part plan that he actually executed well . Part 1 don’t get hit I know DUH  but he definitely locked Tyson up and backed himself into the ropes especially in the first 2-3 rounds assuring a break with the clock running and zero damage to himself. Part 2 tire Tyson out which at 58 years of age wasn’t much of a challenge especially given part 1 of the plan. With that said although I don’t know if it’s true I heard the contract read that Tyson couldn’t knock out Paul in the first 3 rounds or he wouldn’t be paid which if true definitely goes in favor of JP. After last night I really hope JP gets his butt knocked out soon but until he takes on a real boxer closer to his age I think it’s always going to be a clown show watching JP fight with the undercard being the real reason to watch.

I'm going to preface this by saying for nostalgia reasons I really wanted to see Tyson destroy Paul, however I knew in my heart that there was basically no chance of that happening. I keep hearing people say man can you believe how that turned out? Can I believe that an almost 60 year old man got out boxed and wore down by a 27 year old that is in his prime and has been constantly training and boxing the past several years? Of course I can...in fact even though I was hoping for a different turnout I'd be in disbelief had it gone the way most wanted

This sums it up for me. 😁

Man that fight was an embarrassment to all of us, such an obvious cashgrab. I was impressed by Tyson keeping pace with someone half his age as well as he did. No other 58 year old I know could take hits like that. In my heart of hearts I wanted to see Jake Paul get humbled but as was said above, just unrealistic. Kudos to Mike. Would love to see Paul box someone under the age of 40.

The fight between the two women was pretty interracial.

Glorious exposition

If Fake Jake was any good let's see him get in the ring with Jon Jones.

Auto correct pulled the old switcheroo on me.

Both made a huge huge payout though!

Isn't that what sports is really about anyway? I think my little league coach might have been on to something...

Autocorrect chooses its moments better than any author ever could

I see some of this coming Jake Paul's way.  

 

 

An uppercut wasn't in the script unfortunately.
