I take a look at Jake's footwork and think to myself, what the hell is even that?

Think like this - this will come really handy when he has to GTFO from the ring. A bit like Andrew Golota (whom I think made the right decision).

I BET 100 pennies that Mike will lose to this clowntard. Just to annoy boxing fans, because why not. Though the real and proper outcome would be permanent brain damage, fractured eyesocket and dislocated jaws for the blondie.
This is treasure. If anyone wondered why ppl hate this attention whore...

This is a reminder that Tyson is getting very close to his 60s.
Even if Jake has the skill of a journeyman, the age gap is still a big factor.

If i am tyson, i rather enjoy my riches at 60s, let the youtuber cunt have his day.
It is not worth it, age is a HUGE factor in sports. Old mike aint going to make it.

I hope I'm wrong, but this can go as bad as Ali vs Holmes.

y'all know Jake Paul pays his opponents massive amounts of money but incentivices them to "not knock him out."
say Jake Paul wins in any fashion, any round, the opponent gets the full prize money, say 10 million dollars. his opponents though are on a pay scale where if it's a 10 round fight, the opponent can only win the max purse on the last round. opponent wins in the 1st round and they only make 1 million, 2nd round 2 millions, etc etc. opponents of course are not trying to knock Jake out to get paid the max.
Jake also chooses old retired guys so as the fight goes on he looks better.
Also rumors that Jake gets to choose his own judges.

I feel like Tyson could kill someone if he were to let it all go. I wouldn’t want to be Jake Paul.

I am surprised so many people think Iron Mike has an edge. Have they aged? The difference between a 27 year old and 58 year old is enormous in terms of athletic peak. I'd bet on Jake if I bet.

Yes, I agree, but I want to see the old legend knock his ass out. Mike said he didn't have it in him back in '05. I doubt it has gotten any better after 20 more years of aging.

If the match is fairly uneventful and goes to decision then I agree it’s bad for both since everyone will be dissatisfied and want to point out how stupid it was for them to want this fight in the first place.
If one of them, especially Tyson, somehow manages to knock out the other early on then it’ll be a huge milestone for both of their careers despite everyone acknowledging the meaningless absurdity of this matchup.

I don't care how good a shape Paul is in, he loses to Tyson.

Mike Tyson is what? 60? Isnt this elder abuse?
Fuck the Paul brothers though.

This is weird as a lot of people think
The difference between the top athletes in any sport at 60 (as long as they stay in shap) would woop even decent ameteurs. No matter the sport. Paul is a decent boxer but I just don’t see how this goes well.
and not a boxer. He was a world class MMA fighter (arguably a GOAT) in this time and had a really bad end to his career. He wasn’t the same guy.

I have no doubt that Tyson can still punch. Whether or not he has the stamina to go beyond 2 or 3 rounds with a guy half his age remains to be seen. I think if Jake Paul can play keep away for 2 rounds then Mike starts to get tired by the middle of round 3 and then its over.
I did notice that the rounds are only 2 minutes long which heavily favors Mike, I think.

I think this is spot on.
His fight against Jones Jr. had 2 minute rounds too. Mike didn't look that good and he's only gotten older.

I just don't think this is true and wildly underestimates the effects of aging. We know by your late 30s you are basically out of the game in terms of high level professionals, so tack another 20 years of aging on top of that. Even with TRT and such there’s only so much you can do.
Yet, there is so little real world data on this. But this is because most 60 year olds have the sense not to step into the competitive situation against men 30-40 years younger than them.

What time is it?
I'm with you and I think if Tyson doesn't get it done in the first round (maybe the second), at best it ends up a draw. The glove weight is determinantal to an early knockout too.

The thing with Mike is he has all those years of experience at the very top of the game and once instinct kicks in it's all automatic, couple that with him being in amazing shape and having something to prove plus he knows his reputation is on the line here, I genuinely think he'll go straight for the kill and an angry Tyson constantly coming at you is bound to set anyone at unease and off balance especially a cunt like Jake Paul, just go at him like a tiger and he'll win, but if Paul keeps him at bay and walks him around the ring then he'll tire and that'll open him up to danger
