$40,000,000 tacky end... hmmmm tricky one. lol
But he's said repeatedly in recent years money never brought him happiness etc. Still, I suppose we all got bills to pay...

Ignoring the boxing side, which I've never got, but, a rapist v's an ex-influencer, what has come to the world.

That’s because it comes under exhibition and that’s the rules for exhibitions.
I thought that was lifted so they could knock the shit out of each other?
Oh maybe it has

Tyson slapped Paul at the weigh in, and Paul never even flinched. I just hope it was staged or that does'nt bode well for Tyson lol!

I'm pretty sure if Tyson doesn't put him on his arse inside 20 seconds, its a fixed match with result agreed already.

I'll watch in the morning.

I'm guessing Tysons corner will be saying knock him out asap and dont trade. Pauls corner will be telling to keep out of his way, which is the only chance he has. I think Tyson within 3 but if Paul dodge enough and it goes past 5 he'd take it. But Tyson is the master of stalking...

Is it free to Netflix subscribers or PPV on top?

I blieve it's free and at about 4am.

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.

There's already stuff out there that the 'script' for the fight has been leaked.

Paul stepped on Tyson's foot, which lead to the slap

Looks like wishful thinking by the JP camp, they *scripted* a cut above Tysons right eye??
