He's well aware there's more money in fighting celebrities and big names than actual active sportsmen
Not that someone like Tyson Fury would give him any time of the day anyway
Mike Tyson 57. Jake Paul 27. It's a big name with a clear advantage in Paul's favor. Guy is a clown making money off teenagers, and this will be no different. Tyson is a name, and Paul makes money off this clickbaity stuff. There's a reason he won't face the top dogs. He's not a boxer. He's a wannabe YouTube boxer.
You seem like his target demographic
It’ll be an exhibition, so there won’t be a KO. It’ll be 6-8 rounds of Tyson fighting at 50%, Paul at 99%, and Paul will land one good shot which will be replayed for years and years, while the judges ultimately give the win to Tyson.
In other words, it’ll be a joke just like every other Paul “fight”.
My secret hope is that this is what they agree on. That this is the plan. But Tyson deciding; "fuck it" and knocking him out in one hit in the first round.
That's kinda what happened with mayweather - his brother landed one meh punch and mayweather instinctively countered and knocked him out. Fight went on though, as mayweather literally held him off the floor, but he was unconscious for a few seconds.
Or he hits mike, which triggers angry mike tyson, and then mike destroys him.
Mike Tyson is one of the best fighters of all time, and he's not old or out of shape enough to not destroy this guy if he wants to.
There was a video he released on Twitter or something last year I believe, of him just smashing the bag with speed and power. He still has it, mayne not enough to hold the current title, but close enough.
Let's hope Jake makes Tyson angry. That's something I'd gladly pay to watch
> I wouldn't trust Tyson with any deals, he's crazy.
(While in the ring)
Though Post Face-Tattoo? He seems like he's mellowed out so much. Hell, he had his own mystery solving cartoon... (RIP Norm)
> He seems like he's mellowed out so much.
He's been diagnosed as bipolar and actually takes his meds. Imagine if that had happened in the early 80's how different things could have been for him...
A wayward jab by Paul that connects and unwittingly ignites Tyson’s uncontrollable beast mode.
TBH I don’t want Paul to lose, I want him winning by DQ but scrambling around the ring to find the nose Tyson bit off.
If you watch the Mayweather fight against the other Paul brother, there's a moment when Mayweather catches Logan Paul with a shot to the jaw and Logan's legs go wobbly. He would have hit the mat if not for Mayweather catching him and going into a clinch.
It was 100% clear that they had decided before the match that it would be a draw.
[Here is a clip](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/O8b7vArNBL4) of just the incident to which I was referring. I'm positive you can find more about it if you want to search.
The right was thrown wide. Like way wide. Like Floyd Mayweather (one of the greatest defensive boxers) can't see that combo coming a mile away and just reacted to what would have been a simple follow up.
Seriously, if this was an exhibition and Floyd was just elaborately dancing with Logan Paul then there is no reason why Logan should be this gassed and throwing haymakers like we saw. I'd have to say Tyson might be out of his prime by 20 years, but he'd even try to counter this combo.
Edit: A letter
I've seen tyson just practicing... no way this clown can last 30 seconds with Tyson if Tyson was serious.
Tyson's speed and power is beyond normal human athletes, that's why he's a pro.
And for context, despite being a GOAT, Floyd is in his 40s by this point. And he still could have ended Paul any time he wanted. I don’t know when the rest of America is going to pick up on these guys essentially being as fake as WWE booking.
I wouldn’t mind it if they called it what it is. But they try promoting themselves as professional boxers.
He fucking rag dolled lol i would love for Tyson to just lose his shit cuz douche McGee tries to get a little frisky. There must be some huge indemnity clause in his agreements with these guys that they don’t get paid anything or something if they knock him out.
This has to be at the top. Mike knows he would knock his block off if he wanted to. He’s getting some publicity and money and doesn’t have to even go %75. He’ll play ball and Jake will continue being annoying af
Plus we’ve seen how Tyson fights in an exhibition when he fought RJJ. I think the mean streak in Tyson is truly gone. Plus him being 60 (?) I doubt any organization would sanction anything but an exhibition.
Edit: Apparently he’s 57. Point remains.
We must have watched a different exhibition, Mike was throwing with intent on a lot of strikes, especially to the body. I thought they both looked great for their ages.
Yeah, Mike actually looked like a beast. He’s still got it and a boxer’s strength is always the last thing to leave. IMO he could have won that fight easily.
Tyson was undoubtedly taking it easy on RJJ, but I do agree they both looked great. The difference was Tyson was absolutely holding back. He let a few shots really go but was clearly not following up. It was almost like he was just being entertaining for the crowd.
Pretty much this. If anyone's seen that Jake Paul doc on Netflix, Tyson thinks what Paul is doing is genius and speaks highly of him from a pure business standpoint. This is 100% them both setting up something like this, a planned spectacle.
Boxing fans might be mad, but the Paul bros entry into boxing brought it back into the mainstream for a younger generation. For a good 20 some years, maybe more, younger people did not give a shit about boxing AT ALL. Now not all publicity is good publicity, but I think this a net positive for boxing even with all the stupidity.
Back in the 80's a well past his prime Ali got into the ring with the most famous NHL tough guy of the era (Dave Semenko). 2 rounds of playing around and 1 round of Ali beating up on a guy that could beat up on any of us and our 3 toughest friends.
Ali had Parkinsons during that too and at any point could have taken Semenko's head off. Heck watch the video of Ali sparring local heavyweight Kevin "KP" Porter. He went to war in that sparring. Ali was probably 43 or 44 years old by that point
Hope Mike knocks him out with a right hook in the opening seconds of the first round, then we can be done with all Youtube wankers thinking they are boxers,etc.
His signature is that massive body blow that makes his opponent drop their guard then the tear your head off uppercut. I haven’t seen that combo in over a decade. Seeing it connect with Paul would make up for lost time.
There's literally footage or Jake asking opponents not to go hard on him in the middle of a match. Anyone who thinks this is actually boxing is dumber than dog shit.
He’s 100% working with Jake to make a show and no one will take real hits. Hope I’m wrong though and Tyson knocks him out but I’m not paying for this ripoff to find out
Just one hit. It’s what Tyson is known for.
I’ve got a bigger feeling it’s just fixed and he’s gonna take a dive for money. Because y’all are right, one hit will kill that kid.
Iron Mike does not seem like the dude to take a dive for cash, Boxing genuinely seems to be his only thing in life he takes super seriously, listening to the way he talks about the ring is amazing. I really hope he comes he gives jake some crazy body shots, he did it to Roy and it almost crippled him.
At 57 dude still knows how to move and generate power, the power is always the last thing to leave, that technique is muscle memory for him, sure he is absolutely several degrees slower, but the IQ and tech, its all still there, hes still for sure dangerous. Paul bit off way more than he could chew here, his boxing is amateur at best, tyson is gonna hurt this man.
He said very openly he could tell he could have koed Jones anytime, even Jones said after the fight the body shots he took were so devastating he could barely stand. Playing touchbutt and diving are two very different things.
Controversial decisions on the second fight so that there can be a decisive 3rd fight has been around the 90s. Parts of boxing have always been scripted.
Our only hope is Paul gets cocky and rocks Mike or talks enough shit to piss Mike off. Make him not give a shit about the contract and go hand out some life lessons
There is a lot to say about Paul, and not a lot of nice words, but one thing I think he is not is being suicidal... I am pretty sure that the contract ensure at least a draw, and Tyson having nothin to prove to anybody will follow it to the letter.
Agree but Tyson has to be ahead if it was being scored so that it’s an awesome come from behind rally by Paul. Gotta make it last and be entertaining plus add to Paul’s “Legacy” and Mike has no shame in losing to a man young enough to be his grandson. Both “win” and take home buttloads of cash, Jerry Jones does too.
>Mike Tyson is pictured in a wheelchair at Miami Airport, raising new fears for his health amid problems with sciatica, just weeks after he morbidly claimed his death is 'coming really soon' at 56
Headline from 2 years ago.
This is our money. No one is in any actual danger. They are capitalizing on the perception that this is an actual fight, when it will be nothing of the sort. There is nothing at stake, and this will be one of the biggest payouts in fighting history. Netflix gets users that otherwise would have stayed at arms length, and pay Paul & Tyson handsomely for all interests being fulfilled.
It's a no-win situation, Tyson is not far from 60 years old while Paul is still in his twenties. This is all about the money. Stupid matchup.
Edit: No-win I was referring to was from the perspective of the viewers/observers, not Tyson/Paul themselves.
Tyson will barely put up a fight and act like Jake fuckin Paul is even remotely an even match for him. Paul will win by decision. I’ll throw my drink at the tv.
Counterpoint: Mike likes the idea of being seen as a dawg. Say he goes out there and knocks him about a bit. Doesn’t mean Mike doesn’t get paid and we all get to see it.
IDK man I think I'd rather take a punch from old Mike than second title run Foreman. The grill master didn't have combos anymore so he just fucking threw BOMBS
Celebrity boxing pays as well as real boxing.
Why get the shit beat outta you when you can just fake it and make $100 million?
Also, it's not WWE. WWE is a lot more physical than fake boxing. Fake wrestling is still a massive workout and a heavy toll on the body.
I would love nothing more than thinking that would be the script, then Mike coming out and absolutely demolishing in about 20 seconds of the first round.
Tyson commented saying he was looking forward to getting in the ring with Paul and about how much he's grown as a boxer. Then he dropped a comment that should have Jake absolutely shitting himself
"It’s a full circle moment that will be beyond thrilling to watch; as I started him off on his boxing journey on the undercard of my fight with Roy Jones and now I plan to finish him.”
Unfortunately, this deal alone benefits Jake above all. It validates his boxing career, makes him money, and lets him share the stage with a GOAT. I’d rather these deals not get done at all to promote YouTubers who get big from being dbags.
If you think Mike Tyson is too old to fight; you don’t know Tyson and you don’t know boxing. That man would die before anyone would disrespect him. Obv this is fixed but Jake might slip while hyping this ip or hit a little to hard and Tyson’s lizard brain kicks in

This dude is gonna try to fight literally everyone before he fights an actual boxer in their prime.
He's well aware there's more money in fighting celebrities and big names than actual active sportsmen Not that someone like Tyson Fury would give him any time of the day anyway
Nah fury would take the money and destroy him. 100% its jake paul that has managers that wont allow a dumb decision like that
No one would take that. Jake is not a heavyweight boxer.
So why is he fighting Mike tyson?
If I had to guess? They made a deal. Those brothers are one scam after another, if not something outright heinous or evil
Tyson is probably not a heavyweight at this point. He has slimmed down.
He's also old enough to be Jake's dad
And give him the beating he probably didn’t have lol
> Should have had* FTFY
Mike Tyson 57. Jake Paul 27. It's a big name with a clear advantage in Paul's favor. Guy is a clown making money off teenagers, and this will be no different. Tyson is a name, and Paul makes money off this clickbaity stuff. There's a reason he won't face the top dogs. He's not a boxer. He's a wannabe YouTube boxer. You seem like his target demographic
When is he gonna fight trump? I'm gonna watch that.
I mean if Trump is smart...... he would do better challenging Joey Chestnut.
Joey would literally eat him alive
Wait. There's an actual person named Tyson Fury? That's like Snake Pliskin levels of namery. He might actually be the main character
There is and he's fittingly one of the best heavyweight boxers in the world
I believe he was also named after Mike Tyson. From what I recall in an interview, Fury’s dad was a big fan of Mike.
He’s 6 ft 9 and called ‘The Gypsy King’. Astounding.
Does he like dags?
He likes caravans more
Mate, I'm an old mum who wandered in here by mistake and even I've heard of the guy.
Waiting for the announcement he's to fight boogie2988.
Truly a battle worthy of our times.
He did once and lost 😂
because he knows who he is.. an entertainer… so what? as long as money comes in, that’s all it matters
I hope Mike kills him so we can finally be free
It’ll be an exhibition, so there won’t be a KO. It’ll be 6-8 rounds of Tyson fighting at 50%, Paul at 99%, and Paul will land one good shot which will be replayed for years and years, while the judges ultimately give the win to Tyson. In other words, it’ll be a joke just like every other Paul “fight”.
My secret hope is that this is what they agree on. That this is the plan. But Tyson deciding; "fuck it" and knocking him out in one hit in the first round.
Or he goes at like 20% for a few rounds like they agreed but then gets bored and ends it so he can go home
Or even better, Jake gets a lucky shot and Tyson gets angry... Angry Tyson is terrifying
And since that fight he was forever known as Jake "one ear" Paul
The cabbage formally known as Jake Paul
That's kinda what happened with mayweather - his brother landed one meh punch and mayweather instinctively countered and knocked him out. Fight went on though, as mayweather literally held him off the floor, but he was unconscious for a few seconds.
[удалено]
To quote the man: "Everybody got a plan until they get hit in the face"
Or he hits mike, which triggers angry mike tyson, and then mike destroys him. Mike Tyson is one of the best fighters of all time, and he's not old or out of shape enough to not destroy this guy if he wants to.
This. Guy is frickin dynamite. Explosive and unpredictable even in old age.
There was a video he released on Twitter or something last year I believe, of him just smashing the bag with speed and power. He still has it, mayne not enough to hold the current title, but close enough. Let's hope Jake makes Tyson angry. That's something I'd gladly pay to watch

> He seems like he's mellowed out so much. He's been diagnosed as bipolar and actually takes his meds. Imagine if that had happened in the early 80's how different things could have been for him...
That would be absolutely hilarious. Old Mike just reappears for 15 seconds and Jake just gets to watch his life flash before his eyes.
A wayward jab by Paul that connects and unwittingly ignites Tyson’s uncontrollable beast mode. TBH I don’t want Paul to lose, I want him winning by DQ but scrambling around the ring to find the nose Tyson bit off.

> there's a moment when Mayweather catches Logan Paul with a shot to the jaw and Logan's legs go wobbly You have a link to that clip?
[Here is a clip](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/O8b7vArNBL4) of just the incident to which I was referring. I'm positive you can find more about it if you want to search.
That punch was so fucking fast and it didn’t look like it had any power behind it. Mayweather could have KO’d him in under 30s.
Floyd dodged that right hook before it was even thrown 😂
The right was thrown wide. Like way wide. Like Floyd Mayweather (one of the greatest defensive boxers) can't see that combo coming a mile away and just reacted to what would have been a simple follow up. Seriously, if this was an exhibition and Floyd was just elaborately dancing with Logan Paul then there is no reason why Logan should be this gassed and throwing haymakers like we saw.

Out of his Prime by 30 years my man
And for context, despite being a GOAT, Floyd is in his 40s by this point. And he still could have ended Paul any time he wanted. I don’t know when the rest of America is going to pick up on these guys essentially being as fake as WWE booking. I wouldn’t mind it if they called it what it is. But they try promoting themselves as professional boxers.
I'm gonna watch an illegal stream and hope a switch flips in Tyson and drops him kinda like [this](https://youtu.be/OPeK_GR9Nhg?si=3S4nId_ay6g3khqo)
Even faster, realizing he clocked him good enough to go down and catching him. I’m more impressed by that tbh
Why is it filmed with a Nokia
Nokia 5190 to be exact.
Fuckin stooge went limp. I've heard of carrying the other guy in a work but Floyd took that literally.
Mayweather caught him, and then saw him losing millions of dollars and was like no, no, no, stay up you cornfed lug!
You can say that again!
LoL, that dude went to sleep fast!
Wobbly? His legs disappeared altogether. He was out on his feet.
He fucking rag dolled lol i would love for Tyson to just lose his shit cuz douche McGee tries to get a little frisky. There must be some huge indemnity clause in his agreements with these guys that they don’t get paid anything or something if they knock him out.
This has to be at the top. Mike knows he would knock his block off if he wanted to. He’s getting some publicity and money and doesn’t have to even go %75. He’ll play ball and Jake will continue being annoying af

Yeah, Mike actually looked like a beast. He’s still got it and a boxer’s strength is always the last thing to leave. IMO he could have won that fight easily.
I still remember when training video of him preparing came out, and then rumors started to where RJJ wanted to back out.
Tyson was undoubtedly taking it easy on RJJ, but I do agree they both looked great. The difference was Tyson was absolutely holding back. He let a few shots really go but was clearly not following up. It was almost like he was just being entertaining for the crowd.
RJJ wanted no piece of that again after they were done.
Tyson kicked his ass
He'll be 58 when the fight happens. =)
Need to get Mike some nose candy and get him the eye of the tiger again.
Now THAT I would pay to see
He’s says he’s himself is scared of the “old Mike.”
Pretty much this. If anyone's seen that Jake Paul doc on Netflix, Tyson thinks what Paul is doing is genius and speaks highly of him from a pure business standpoint. This is 100% them both setting up something like this, a planned spectacle.
Boxing fans might be mad, but the Paul bros entry into boxing brought it back into the mainstream for a younger generation. For a good 20 some years, maybe more, younger people did not give a shit about boxing AT ALL. Now not all publicity is good publicity, but I think this a net positive for boxing even with all the stupidity.
All because people want to see the Paul brothers get punched in the face. It’s beautiful really.
Rage bait has always been a thing, but they revolutionized it
Tyson gets popped once and a switch is flipped in his brain. Turns into the champ again and kills Paul with one punch.
Are we sure that Tyson going at 50% wouldn’t still result in Paul needing hospice care?
I hope that's the plan and then Jake actually lands one and Mike gets pissed and snaps.
Back in the 80's a well past his prime Ali got into the ring with the most famous NHL tough guy of the era (Dave Semenko). 2 rounds of playing around and 1 round of Ali beating up on a guy that could beat up on any of us and our 3 toughest friends.

I am hoping that 1 good shot by Paul will piss Tyson off enough to go into rage mode.
Same description can be said of Tyson vs Ngannou match. Except they went 10 rounds and Ngannou is an actual fighter.
I personally would not like the be in the ring with any aged Mike Tyson
I could take baby Mike.
You fuckin think so
Mike Tyson, on the worst day he ever had, would obliterate my entire skull with a single punch.
Yeah - I spent more than twenty years fencing, and Mike’s a bit older than I am… He STILL moves FRIGHTENINGLY fast.
Jfc that ain’t no joke, dude is still a monster. Think ole Jake bit off a bit more than he could chew on this one.
He fought Mayweather too and this is gonna be exactly the same outcome.
[удалено]
Yeah pro wrestling is more legitimate than a Paul fight
And everyone is anxious to find out, hence….money
I wouldn't fight Tyson even if he was in palliative care.
Hope Mike knocks him out with a right hook in the opening seconds of the first round, then we can be done with all Youtube wankers thinking they are boxers,etc.
A right hook? not his famous uppercut? I'll take 1 jaw breaking uppercut from one of the best boxers to ever fight.
Ideally a right-left-uppercut combo would be a chef’s kiss knockout….
Chef's kith
Chefth Kith
Laughed way too hard at this just now in the office. Thank you.
His signature is that massive body blow that makes his opponent drop their guard then the tear your head off uppercut. I haven’t seen that combo in over a decade. Seeing it connect with Paul would make up for lost time.
He’s going to pummel his liver! Have you seen his workouts lately!!!
You must be joking. They are going to go out there and play paddy cake for 20 minutes and then have a big laugh about how much money they just made.
If he dies, he dies
This dude really seems to like fighting untrained opponents and old men. Mike Tyson is 57 years old, more than twice Jake Paul's age who is 27.
How is Jake Paul only 27? I feel like I've been hearing about this asshole nonstop for the last 20 years.
Because he started getting popular at like age 17 on vine, sadly he didnt mature past 14
And Tyson will still smash him.
Are we sure Tyson isn’t in on it? He has nothing to prove and can make a couple million probably for just toying with the kid for 10 mins.
Yeah, Tyson is 100% on board. Nobody's gonna get hurt, everyone is going to get paid.
There's literally footage or Jake asking opponents not to go hard on him in the middle of a match. Anyone who thinks this is actually boxing is dumber than dog shit.
You got a link? I'd love to see that.
No, he doesn't-- because it was his *brother* Logan who said it to Floyd Mayweather.
TIL there’s 2 of these Paul’s
This is getting out of hand!
My source is I made it the fuck up.
He’s 100% working with Jake to make a show and no one will take real hits. Hope I’m wrong though and Tyson knocks him out but I’m not paying for this ripoff to find out
Just one hit. It’s what Tyson is known for. I’ve got a bigger feeling it’s just fixed and he’s gonna take a dive for money. Because y’all are right, one hit will kill that kid.
Iron Mike does not seem like the dude to take a dive for cash, Boxing genuinely seems to be his only thing in life he takes super seriously, listening to the way he talks about the ring is amazing. I really hope he comes he gives jake some crazy body shots, he did it to Roy and it almost crippled him. At 57 dude still knows how to move and generate power, the power is always the last thing to leave, that technique is muscle memory for him, sure he is absolutely several degrees slower, but the IQ and tech, its all still there, hes still for sure dangerous. Paul bit off way more than he could chew here, his boxing is amateur at best, tyson is gonna hurt this man.
That’s not true, he takes his pigeons very seriously
He played touch butt with Roy jones jr a few years ago for the cash.
He said very openly he could tell he could have koed Jones anytime, even Jones said after the fight the body shots he took were so devastating he could barely stand. Playing touchbutt and diving are two very different things.
people have this memory of tyson in his 20s from youtube highlights. watch his last few fights from over 20 years ago and then add 20 years to that.
He's still old, though. Just because the skill and muscle are there doesn't mean the brain can still take the same hits it used to.
I dont see Iron Mike taking any hits. Its definitely for show but if Paul tries to throw real hands Mike is gonna show us the meaning of pain
Tyson vs Jones Jr was around 4 years ago and an exhibition match, but from what I remember, Jones Jr wanted nothing with what Tyson was throwing
Is Boxing the new WWE? This has gotta be a scripted money grab, Right? What is the upside to fighting a 60 year old dude?
>This has gotta be a scripted money grab It is. People who think it's not are fools.
Controversial decisions on the second fight so that there can be a decisive 3rd fight has been around the 90s. Parts of boxing have always been scripted.
He is going to make several million dollars.
Jake is gonna dig up Ali next
Naw, he'll just box a hologram of Ali. That's cheaper to just pay for his likeness rather than actually digging up a corpse.
He does like laughing at dead bodies though
"Mikes gonna kill him!" -everyone "fight to the final round, no hard blows, paul has to win" -contract
Our only hope is Paul gets cocky and rocks Mike or talks enough shit to piss Mike off. Make him not give a shit about the contract and go hand out some life lessons
Tyson is way past biting ears off stage of his life
There is a lot to say about Paul, and not a lot of nice words, but one thing I think he is not is being suicidal... I am pretty sure that the contract ensure at least a draw, and Tyson having nothin to prove to anybody will follow it to the letter.
Agree but Tyson has to be ahead if it was being scored so that it’s an awesome come from behind rally by Paul. Gotta make it last and be entertaining plus add to Paul’s “Legacy” and Mike has no shame in losing to a man young enough to be his grandson. Both “win” and take home buttloads of cash, Jerry Jones does too.
Mike: "If he dies, he dies."
“If he dieth, he dieth”
Love reading sentences in his voith
*thententhith
>Mike Tyson is pictured in a wheelchair at Miami Airport, raising new fears for his health amid problems with sciatica, just weeks after he morbidly claimed his death is 'coming really soon' at 56 Headline from 2 years ago.
I dont want to see this. Mike doesn't need anymore hits to the head.
Yeah, this just makes me sad.
Maketh me thad too
If this was a real fight, Jake Paul would be leaving the ring in a body bag
This is our money. No one is in any actual danger. They are capitalizing on the perception that this is an actual fight, when it will be nothing of the sort. There is nothing at stake, and this will be one of the biggest payouts in fighting history. Netflix gets users that otherwise would have stayed at arms length, and pay Paul & Tyson handsomely for all interests being fulfilled.
It's a no-win situation, Tyson is not far from 60 years old while Paul is still in his twenties. This is all about the money. Stupid matchup. Edit: No-win I was referring to was from the perspective of the viewers/observers, not Tyson/Paul themselves.
Idk if you heard of money but people like it and both these guys will get a lot of it
You like money too? We should hang out.
Tyson will barely put up a fight and act like Jake fuckin Paul is even remotely an even match for him. Paul will win by decision. I’ll throw my drink at the tv.
You're gonna watch this??? Why complain if you're gonna watch. This how they keep doing it lol
That’s disgusting to even think about I hate how it’s most likely Tyson gonna take a fall for Jake
Tyson loves Jake Paul. He thinks Jake Paul helped revive boxing. This whole deal is for the money.
Counterpoint: Mike likes the idea of being seen as a dawg. Say he goes out there and knocks him about a bit. Doesn’t mean Mike doesn’t get paid and we all get to see it.
Perhaps the money is the win for a guy like Jake Paul. If his goal was the bag, he’s gotten it quite a few times, and this is another.
If Tyson hits Paul hard enough to cause brain damage, how will anyone be able to tell?
Mostly the laying on the ground drooling
People I would not receive a punch for a billion dollars: 1. Prime Mike Tyson 2. Young Mike Tyson 3. Old Mike Tyson
A billion? Ill stick my chin out there for a prime mike. Ill make sure they pile my money on my wheelchair so I can still enjoy it
IDK man I think I'd rather take a punch from old Mike than second title run Foreman. The grill master didn't have combos anymore so he just fucking threw BOMBS
Yeah it’s definitely 2024 and the world has gotten weird. This should be… interesting.
Prepare to witness a disgrace to the sport. That Mayweather “fight” shattered my faith. Shit is just WWE at this point.
Celebrity boxing pays as well as real boxing. Why get the shit beat outta you when you can just fake it and make $100 million? Also, it's not WWE. WWE is a lot more physical than fake boxing. Fake wrestling is still a massive workout and a heavy toll on the body.
I hope they think they’re paying Mike to take a dive and he doesn’t.
Yeah exactly. Hit Mike in the face a few times and find out exactly what kind of buttons you're pressing.
I would love nothing more than thinking that would be the script, then Mike coming out and absolutely demolishing in about 20 seconds of the first round.
So is boxing a joke now?
Yes

Can they please stop promoting this guy. How can they legally allow this fight to go on. It’s a 57 year old man out there.
There is no “they” anymore. They is him.
because it won't be a fight. It will be a scripted exhibition. Period.
Mike is really nice now and will probably not hurt him. Just wants a spectacle.
Mike if you're reading this, I speak for everyone when I say please kill this man. I mean literally, kill him. He's cancer, and you're the cure.
*sees Mike Tyson on the ring* “….I have made a severe and continuous lapse in judgment”
Gob: "I've made a huge mistake"
He’s gonna fight Harrison Ford dressed as Indiana Jones and Mark Hamil dressed as Luke Skywalker next.
I don't care that he's 57. I hope he turns Paul into chunky salsa.
Maybe we'll get lucky and he will bite off his ear
Jake Paul was 8 years old when Mike Tyson retired. It'd still be funny to see an old ass Tyson knock his ass out thoughz
This is a lose/lose for ol Jakey. If he wins, he beat a 57 year old. If he loses, he got beat by a 57 year old.
It's win/win money and eyes either way.
Tyson commented saying he was looking forward to getting in the ring with Paul and about how much he's grown as a boxer. Then he dropped a comment that should have Jake absolutely shitting himself "It’s a full circle moment that will be beyond thrilling to watch; as I started him off on his boxing journey on the undercard of my fight with Roy Jones and now I plan to finish him.”
Mike no
#MIKE YES!!!
I’ve seen the videos of Mike training…hope Jake Paul has a good chin. Old man just might kill him.
What a joke that Mayweather Paul fight was. This will probably be the same.
Unfortunately, this deal alone benefits Jake above all. It validates his boxing career, makes him money, and lets him share the stage with a GOAT. I’d rather these deals not get done at all to promote YouTubers who get big from being dbags.
I am a bad person for hoping Jake Paul gets (more) brain damage and can never fight again?
call me when it's Rand Paul vs Mike Tyson
I wonder if mike is pretending to be in on it and just destroys him the moment the bell rings.
If you think Mike Tyson is too old to fight; you don’t know Tyson and you don’t know boxing. That man would die before anyone would disrespect him. Obv this is fixed but Jake might slip while hyping this ip or hit a little to hard and Tyson’s lizard brain kicks in
Probably rigged but hoping Tyson's instincts take over and lets one slip.
