Dodger Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 If this was like 1991 Paul would get Apollo Creed'd in the ring. Fuck it I'll watch. Hope Tyson still has something left Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nublood Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Money money money. They'll manufacture some make believe drama leading up to the fight, some pushing and shoving yada yada. This fight is all about theater and revenue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.Vic20 Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 My money is still definitely on Tyson, even if he rolls up to the ring in a wheel chair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 It’s impressive how quickly Paul turned this circus from some bullshit thing into a Netflix payday at AT&T and a sports agency in MVP. Since it’s on Netflix, it’s gonna crush all boxing number. Wild times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be a “fun” exhibition match. I wish it could be more. It will pull in huge numbers though. Both of them have their own huge fan bases.

best3444 Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 God I wish it were 1987 right now. Tyson would litteraly knock Paul's head clean off. Not joking @skillzdadirecta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not joking @skillzdadirecta Even the completely shot and disinterested Tyson that fought Lewis would knock both Paul brothers out in the 1st round on the same night. I don't think people realize what a genetic freak Tyson is, even at almost 60. He was 200 pounds at 13 years old, and was already knocking out grown men.

He is the most frightening human being to ever enter a ring. Short vid worth watching: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not joking @skillzdadirecta 100 percent. Prime or even amateur Tyson would beat Paul 1000 out of 1000 times. Jake wouldn't even survive half of the first round. But like DarkStar189 said, this is just a glorified exhibition match. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I think Tyson will make a fool of himself and probably lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skillzdadirecta Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 My buddies that I've been watching boxing with since college texted me this this morning in our boxing text chat. I didn't even bother to respond and I'm only posting here to please ask to not tag me or mention me in this thread. I haven't seen Jake Paul fight and I'm indifferent to his whole "career". Mike is just trying to make money at this point... the most interesting thing about this whole story is that THIS is Netflix' answer to its lack of live sports? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I were Paul I would be concerned that Mike isn't just there to collect a huge payday and participate in the exhibition match. I got a feeling Iron Mike gonna try and show the world he is still the baddest mother fucker on the planet and that Paul is nothing but a side show sham. I'd love to see Tyson knock him out in the first round Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to see Tyson knock him out in the first round You have no idea how much I hope that happens. If Paul gets violently KO’d stiff in the opening round, I’ll probably laugh my head off. Does that make me bad person? Dunno. Come at me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser_Soze Posted March 8 Author Share Posted March 8 Turns out that is an old video from 4 years ago Jake Paul's Mike Tyson hype video was a lie NYPOST.COM Jake Paul won't be getting the version of Mike Tyson inside the ring he thought he was. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
