He just had one like 4 years ago@husky429 are you even old enough to have even witnessed a Tyson fight on PPV live? Keep his name out yo mouth
It would be nice if one of these days we would have a premier fight between two people who are actually boxers, eh?
And by boxers, I mean not one who retired decades ago (looking at you Mike).
Hope Iron Mike takes Paul's head off in first 2 rounds. He won't go much longer than that against the kid unless they class it an "exhibition".

Tyson isn't interested in hurting people anymore, he just wants the money.Hope Iron Mike takes Paul's head off in first 2 rounds. He won't go much longer than that against the kid unless they class it an "exhibition".
Only 57. And he still looks the part.You're drastically underestimating how much age is a factor here. Tyson will be, what, 59? My coach is 61 now, still in awesome shape for his age, but can hardly keep up with me in sparring even though I haven't trained seriously in years and he's 60lbs heavier than me. Same coach who fought professionally and whooped my butt into his early-50s easily. Reactions and movement just aren't the same.
I highly doubt Iron Mike wins the fight or even stays competitive if they go hard. If he does beat Paul it would be a massive upset IMO. There's a reason why professional athletes aren't 60.
That's my point, Sway. Sad that Mike needs this money at 58 but he's no punk. He's earned that.Regardless, just because Tyson was killer in the past doesn't mean he shouldn't be called out for being a part of clown show today.
Same thing with RJJ when he was having all those fights in Russia against club fighters
Oh my, oh wow.I have watched Tyson PPVs live. I think my earliest memory is his Holyfield fights back to back. Would've been maybe 2000.
Agreed. Tired of these spectacles when there are real fights that can be made. I watch just about every boxing card but passed on this, even though the undercard had some interesting fights.It would be nice if one of these days we would have a premier fight between two people who are actually boxers, eh?

Not upset. Growing a bit tired with the young man with an opinion on everything though.
Almost reminds me of when Muhammad Ali in 1976 fought that wrestler. That was a low point for Ali to have to resort to that spectacle.That he’s doing with Jake Paul is so sad. I remember when he got lumped up by that tomato can him saying that he couldn’t disrespect the sport anymore and now he’s doing this stuff. It sucks. Money’s money I guess.
My opinions on combat sports are probably the only ones worth considering. Fun bit of irony there
It's interesting and sad that these MMA fighters have to turn to boxing to get their big payday. This is the first time I have seen Francis get whooped. If this is was a MMA fight or even just a kickboxing fight he would destroy Anthony Joshua. But boxing, no, the high level boxers will beat him or almost any MMA fighter.
