The show starts at 5pm here, but there's at least 4 other fights on the card before Tyson kills Paul.

I’m not normally as cynical as this but I get the feeling that it will be close, followed by a money spinning rematch in six months.

It seems Paul didn't want to destroy the old man and Tyson got a 16 minute expose of reality.

Woke up to a news report that people are demanding their money back as it was such a shitshow!!!

You pay to watch a 58 yr old bloke fight a youtuber and then complain that it's not the fight of the century :lol: :lol:

If Tyson comes in like prime Tyson, there's no running and hiding, it's just straight in like a raging pit-bull. If he tries to box it, that'll potentially work less well. Straight in wham wham wham, game over...
I don't think that last scenario is in the script/choreography. Close 'fight'......rematch. Kerrrrching! go the organisers.
LOL.

They'll struggle to get any interest in the rematch. :lol:

So from the points I've seen, it was a win, but considering Tyson is over twice Paul's age, I'm not convinced that's an actual 'win'! More of a draw

But I know nothing about this sport - guessing they both got paid a lot to make the comments afterwards worth while??

Just watched. If Tysons right hander in the first round would of made contact, it could of been a very short fight. However, it didn't and basically his age got the better of him, shame really.

Nice payday though. 🥊

They say never meet your heroes, well never watch them either. Tyson looked good pre fight but he looked like my Grandad in there. My wife looks more scary when i walk in with muddy boots. I can only think Paul was being benevolent or is really shit to have not knocked Tyson out. :thumbdown:

He couldn't knock out Tommy Fury who is everything wrong with British boxing in one fake tanned parcel.

It's shit like this that give the detractors of boxing the ammo they need, you have real, professional boxers like Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano on the undercard to a farce where an old man is knocked about by a twenty something on roids. I heard people talking about the fight and nearly screamed at them that it wasn't Mike Tyson who would be fighting Paul, it was an old guy who used to be Mike Tyson.

If Paul wants to fight, call out someone like Tony Bellew, who's not decrepit, get tested for PEDs, fight three minute rounds and use 10oz gloves and see how that works out.

But he won't.

Wasn't the weigh in, it was the press conference, FF to 2:00.

Every time Tyson bit his glove, Jake backed off. Gee, could you not come up with a more subtle sign??

Didn't it turn out Tyson was paid to deliberately loose it?
