Anyone else here watching this on Friday??

I'm a huge Mike Tyson fan, so although I cannot stand Jake Paul, I will be watching.

Tyson looks awesome for 58 years old

Watched First episode of the Netflix series last night, showing their training camp…Not bad so far. I’m sure I’ll watch the fight.
Tyson is a specimen for sure (with a few screws loose)

I was bored of it. I will pay for it even if you have to on Netflix. I love Mike Tyson.

He's my favorite

This is my office. That's a real autographed photo of Mike Tysons punch out from NES. Cool right?

I was supposed to go years back for his book signing. I had one of like 20 tickets and I have an OG NES cartridge of Tysons punch out still in the box. He was gonna sign it for me.

Like 2 days before the event he canceled, he was sick w COVID or flu. Talk about being disappointed.

I wish the fight wasn't gonna happen but il definitely be watching. I figure mike has a round or 2 to land a knock out. Im sure if it goes past 3 then paul can stay outside and avoid him. I just hope he dosent get hurt. 58 is 58

cannot wait to see this later

 
Fight is gimmicky and weird, but I would love to see Paul crying in the corner haha. Looking forward to watching it.

The short little clips I saw of Tyson looked great. Still has power and speed, but he needs to take care of business early.

Did you watch tysons open workout. Its the only non edited footage of him training and he didn't look great :( After seeing that I can say without a doubt Is that all the footage of him looking awesome is very much edited. I'm hoping he's got enough power left in that hand just to end it in the first round. Now im not so sure i wanna watch

There Edited
 
When he was doing pad work he was missing the pads sometimes, he was messing up 3 and 4 punch combos. He looked like a old man the hasn't boxed in years but still had the basics but not much more
 
cant wait .. ofcourse tyson fan as well.

but i dont see how jake paul can lose this one at this stage of tyson.

but very exciting .. prolly going to start around 11pm due to previous cards.

I did not watch the open workout, no. Will look for it. I only saw the short little clips that obviously are/were intended to make him look great. I am hoping for the best. I did see one clip where someone said that "Tyson is going to win just because when the head piece was taken off of him his head didn't move at all" haha implying that he is strong as an ox, but how is his stamina? I just don't see him lasting much more than three rounds.

I don't understand why a 58 year old Tyson would even do this to be honest. He can't need the money. Is this even going to be a serious fight? Just so weird to me.

i think its all about money for tyson .. although i think it says his network to this day is $10mil .. but hes in alot of businesses or wants to get in .. and we all know how these guys spend money .. like we spend on chipotle bowls.

as for jake paul why would he decline it

Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul prize money: How much is each fighter getting paid?

Friday's bout between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul is a big-money spectacle, and the main event fighters will take home their fair share as well.
www.usatoday.com
Neither Mike Tyson nor fight promoters have publicly revealed what Tyson's payday will be for the fight, but boxing industry experts have estimated Tyson could make somewhere in the range of $20 million.
 
Maybe he needs the money after slapping up that shmuck (rightfully so, but not smart) on the airplane !?

They didnt go at it hard. People wanted it enough to give both of them big money . Would get in there for half of Mikes pay day win or lose
 
Haha went as expected

You mean you didn’t think a 58 year old man with CTE could win against a 27 year old?!!!!

I mean its our iron mike son there was always 1% vs 99% chance
 
If i can make something positive out of this, mike actually is in great shape pushing 60, carrying a good amount of muscle and not many 58 year olds (or ppl in general) can even spar or hit a bag for 3 rounds, nevermind 8. Id like to see tyson keep working out and training but not fighting. Just stay jacked and fit, maybe drop 20lbs

If he drops 20 he won’t have those cakes behind him anymore!
 
I know crap about boxing but enough to know that his legs would be the first to go. His first two rounds I was super impressed. I was honestly impressed with his will to continue to compete.

Now time for Paul vs. McGregor fight with unlimited rounds until someone is knocked out.
 
I still loved the fight.
I love Mike Tyson

IT really showed his age and made me a bit sad. Because it is the end of a legend.

I felt the same way when Michael Jordan retired, or when Mike Tyson left the first time and retired. It's the end of an era and this signals that Mike Tyson's career even in exhibitions is over.

He doesn't need money so I am not even sure what he can do. He should be a host on some type of sporting events, whether it be boxing or MMA. I love his insight and his wisdom.

People in the past have claimed he is "dumb" but it is just the opposite. He is brilliant and just speaks street or everyday language. If that man used bigger and refined wording, everyone would see him for the genius he is but then he wouldn't be "Mike".

My favorite athlete and I can't wait to meet him and the rest of the family one day <3

Taylor and Serrano fight was awesome and will be tuning into the next time these women box others.

I typically don’t allow my 8 and 6 year old to watch real violent shows yet but they came up from watching for movie for bed and they were totally into this. My 6 year old daughter couldn’t believe all the blood. My 8 year old son said these girls could beat me up. That’s no lie son!
