Tyson vs Paul
- Thread starter Indiana
- Start date
I'd like Tyson to knock Paul out but too many times ive seen older fighters are not able to respond to younger fighters
Sugar Ray Leonard and Bernard Hopkins come to mind. They were much younger than Tyson but once they're over the hill they're more concerned with self preservation than winning the fight. 58 is ancient in the Fight game
Best chance Mike has is that Paul is not a legit boxer that has honed his skills since he was 7 or 8 years old
Tyson will still have a "puncher's chance" though i suppose

The reality is, Mike was getting beat up by guys better than Jake 25 years ago. A older Mike Tyson, still with KO power, won’t have the speed and reflexes to deal with Paul. Footwork and jab. Go to the body, then come over the top. That’s how Jake will probably win.
I seriously doubt if tyson can catch up with the speed and reflexes of a young guy like Jake paul. But remember how quick and aggressive tyson was during his prime. So, can’t make an accurate prediction here, but Jake still has more odds to win.
Tyson Holyfield 2, the bite fight, Mike was 30 years old, record 45-2 , with 39 Knockouts, Jake Paul 6 months old.
Would love to see tyson knock him out. 30 year age gap, show tyson the money and he will fight.

We'll find out if Jake Paul can take a punch, I'd love to see Tyson book Paul a one-way ticket to Galveston.
I hope it's not another farce like Jose Canseco vs Billy "Football" Cotter fight.

I think Jake's another opportunistic feeder going after a guy in his late 50s ffs! Sure make the money while you can but still. And in the footage I've seen (albeit not much) Jake doesn't look like he's got the blocking instinct. He's got a big punch for sure, but leaves himself wide open after. I think if Mike can counter a few quickly he'll have a chance.
JMHO.
JMHO.
Who knows it maybe fixed and they'll split the money.

Fighting Mike Tyson wasn’t betting on himself enough — Jake Paul is literally wagering it all this weekend.
The “Problem Child” promised to wager a silly amount on himself for Friday’s bout: his entire $40 million purse as a sizable betting favorite when challenged by co-main event female fighter, Katie Taylor.
Fighters were asked to predict who would win, Paul or Tyson, to which Taylor, along with the majority of the stage, answered Tyson.

Jake Paul to win a boring fight. Tyson lost to journey men Kevin McBride (probably same level as Tommy Fury?) and Danny Williams about 20 years ago and will be worse than 20 years ago. Jake Paul is at least fresher and sharper (5 fights in 2 years) than Tyson. There's probably something in their contracts that they can't KO the other guy within 3 rounds so sponsors and TV get their money worth. Anyway, I'm not staying up to watch it
THLAPPED*
Lmao the weigh in was so corny and fake but I’m excited regardless. Betting on Tyson if under 4 rounds, after that idk.
I just want to see him hurt Jake Paul lmao. Can’t stand that guy.
I’m glad they’re not doing the 18 oz gloves as planned originally; 18 oz gloves Tyson would get gassed real quick, the dude is basically a grandpa. 14 still ghey tho

Jake Paul is going to win.
Either via KO or by decision. Decision most likely.
This is not the old Tyson.
This is the OLD Tyson lol.
Would love to see Paul get knocked the fuck out.
Question: Has anyone ever watched a Jake Paul fight wanting him to win? lmao.

Mike Tyson's knee appeared to give out after that slap lol.
Or was that him reflexively going into his boxing stance?
Tons of undercards. Does anyone know what time the main event is? I'm guessing around 11pm? The fight should start before Taylor finishes her concert. I'll be watching Night 2 of the Taylor Swift concert from the LIVE feed fans put online for us. However, I really don't want to miss the 2 chicks big fight rematch. That's going to be 
.

Has he even fought any real boxers? I mean not old UFC fighters, and stuff, etc? I can’t recall.
If he wants to really be a boxer then get in the ring with current real boxers. His age, his weight class.
Honestly I hope, by some miracle, it is a double knock out like Rocky but neither get up and it is called a draw. LOL
