I am no fan of Paul, but this should not be legal. It does nobody any good to see him killed out there.

Mike Tyson may be 57, but he is a professional boxer, and was one of the hardest hitters everywhere. For him to box against even a great amateur should be illegal.

Or is this like wrestling, and he has been told to pull his punches. Either way, this is stupid.

This reminds me of the Muhammad Ali - Bruce Lee debate in Better Call Saul.

"Because if Bruce Lee doesn't have a gun, then it's Ali in three minutes or less."

Sadly, or maybe happily, I have no idea who or what a Jake Paul is.

But I did see Tyson fight once. I think someone will be needing some band-aids.

Be great if this turn out to be a real fight. I have thoughts that it could be a type of WWF event.

The ‘fight’ has been dubbed an ‘exhibition.’

I am also curious as to why so many want to see Paul get beaten. He is hyping the fight with his bragging and outlandish statements just as other boxers do. Why hate him for that?

Tyson is 58 years old. If Paul can run for a few minutes, say into the 4th or 5th round, then Tyson will either quit or fall down from exhaustion. He hasn’t fought since what? 2005?

I would pick Tyson cause I have seen some of his work out videos. He appears to be in very good shape and seems much quicker than Paul. He gets inside Paul’s reach and lookout. One caveat...he hasn’t taken a blow to the head for a long time. And he has a 58 year olds brain circulation. If he gets battered in the head...all bets are off.
My guess he goes in for the kill in the third round, IF he can dodge Paul’s head blows for the first two rounds
..

IMHO
