I agree Dizzy.... I can't see it going on for very long. Paul's probably never been hit like he's about to be this evening. Tyson had better still have that punch because at his age stamina is going to come into play quickly.
 

Tyson is getting old, and Jake Paul is notorious for sketchy fight contracts. Just look at the Mayweather fight where Floyd accidentally knocked him out when he wasn't supposed to and had to hold Jake up on his feet for a few seconds. If the fight isn't rigged Tyson has a decent chance, but that's a big if.
 

I know a guy who went to a pay per view Tyson fight years ago. He got up to use the restroom and when he came back the fight was over. People were afraid of him back then. They say the first thing to go in a fighter is his speed. I think Tysons only hope is to get in close and fire away, but Paul not likely to let that happen.

Tyson..take a fall? Nope, nope, nope...wouldn't believe it for a second.

Nobody puts in the kind of work he has in order to be in the shape he's in
just to take a fall. No matter if Paul loses, or not, he's going to gain huge fame
over this fight, and use it as leverage to get bigger purses in his next fights.

I have an odd sleep disorder, and I'll be sleeping while the fight goes on. Don't have Netflix, but I'm sure it'll be all over YouTube within an hour of the fight ending.

I hope Tyson punches his lungs out...

You may be right sir... but I'm not sure Paul has a choice if Tyson wants to come on in and fire away. I believe Tyson will take some shots to deliver his... I guess we'll see soon.
 

So, who's going to sleep...Paul or Tyson?

He may be nearing 60, but my money (if I had any) is on Tyson to put
Paul away before the end of the 3rd.
Mike Tyson without a doubt. He may be older but he isn't a fake poser. He will stomp a mudhole in Jake Paul. I've never really been into boxing or any sports watching but anytime Mike Tyson is going to be up count me in.

Yeah, anything can happen. I don’t know if Paul can hold him back like Lennox Lewis did. He just battered him into submission.

No doubt Tyson has a few tricks up his sleeve.but you can never get back the speed.. like I told a friend who had a fifteen year old dog with a bad leg, “I still wouldn’t want to tangle with him.” Now for forty million $...
 

So Paul is the real deal..respect for his win, but I still think he's a jackass.

Fourteen ounce gloves and Paul said he backed off because he didn’t want to hurt him. Boxing anin’t what’s it used to be.
 

The fight reminded me of fifty years ago, Billie Jean King defeated Bobby Riggs in a historic "Battle of the Sexes" tennis match. It was the most watched tennis match of all time, with an estimated 90 million people tuning in worldwide, and it became an important moment in the women's rights movement; yet pure commercialism--as was this fight.
