Would anyone mind if I started another Mike Tyson thread?

are people betting on this as an actual fight or are they betting on what essentially is "who is vince mcmahon going to have win, hulk or the warrior?"

amazes me people are acting liek this is anything but staged.
We spend most of our time on here deciding who could beat up who.

Brah I hope Mike KO's Jake Paul in violation of the fight rigging.

Then I hope he spares Brick Top, still sprays Vega when the Pop Tarts are done, avoids getting hit by Jake Paul driving Hunny Bunny's Honda, and explains to Jake Paul that JP lost all his LA privileges but lets Zed, Spider, Gimp, et al proceed.

I think if this is a real fight Duffy is probably right.

I would love to see Tyson kill this guy but unfortunately the true undefeated heavyweight champion is age.

Yeah, I almost ripped him a new asshole for that.

And of course Silva would have destroyed him in MMA. JP would need a decade of jiu jitsu just to have a shot. But it was a boxing match.

My son is a BJJ blue belt. I rolled with him yesterday and fucked his ass up for 20 minutes straight.

But he wrestled varsity four years in high school and every time we started on the feet I hit the mat hard. If we were in a wrestling match under wrestling rules my boy would push my sh!t in, no problem.

But guess what? Even though I wiped the floor with him yesterday he still wins. He’s at the gym right now lifting heavy. I’m laying on the couch with ice, a foam roller and bottle of Advil.

Youth wins. Time is undefeated.
What belt are you?

Tyson has to finish it first round. Which he can do.

But every 10 seconds after that is to Jake Paul's advantage. Tyson is almost 60 and smokes a ton of weed and eats handfuls of mushrooms. I'm sure he still has that crazy power but even with two minute rounds, he's going to gas.

That said, there is a ton of overestimation of JP's boxing ability. He has skills, yes. But ask yourself, why is he not working his way up the amateur ranks against opponents his age, in his weight class? Why is he not gunning for Tyson Fury or even better, Oleksander Usyk? Because right now, today, he'd lose the ten fights it takes to get to them. sh!t, fight Deontay Wilder. See how that goes.

Lets be honest, boxing fucking sucks. It's one dimensional. The only buzz around boxing the last 5 years has been these novelty fights. McGregor vs Mayweather. Now Tyson vs Jake Paul. I am stoked Tyson can make some real money. I hope he knocks him out but I don't think it will happen.

I'll answer that.

Because he has developed a very lucrative career putting on exhibition fights that people want to see- mostly with washed MMA fighters and boxers.

He's a prize fighter who is fighting for big prizes.

Hear, hear.

He's monetized the punchable face vibe to an extent that people will pay big money on just the off-chance they get to see him get his ass kicked.

He's also smart enough to challenge the (mostly) toothless lions. He may have lost the hubris bet on Tyson though. Jake Paul better hope all those weed and psychedelics mellowed Iron Mike out. Rage and pain can go a long way.

Jake Paul doesn't get much rotation into his punches. Tyson does, and that rotation is coming from out of his opponent's field-of-view inside their wheelhouse due to his "peak-a-boo" style so they have less/no time to brace for it. I'd much rather get hit by Jake Paul than Mike Tyson.

Anyways, they're doign a great job promoting it. Foos like us keep talking about it.

negative, sucka! anythign but one dimensional. real boxers put in MUCH more distance training than the MMA guys. why you think we're on UFC 938? easy disposal...short rounds...brutal....great marketing without big investment into talent. dana white takes advantage of those warriors.
