    Those that write about these type of fights are just banking on the hope that if you say something enough people will believe it is true or is " important " in boxing. They do it all the time sometimes it works on people but the truth is just another money grab like most things in sport ...............

      It might come off like a reality show, and it might not be much of a boxing match, but they are going to be fighting in that ring.
      Jake would've been much better off fighting a fighter in the top 15-20, in his weight division, but fighting Mike for the money, exposure, and the name.
      It is a ***********al situation when you have to resort to these types of events, in order to keep your brand in the news.

        Any sane person will see this 'cash grab' for exactly what is , a ridiculous and dangerous event .It's even worst than Mayweathers events , as at least he seems to know he's taking the p-iss. and can still move a little. Tyson stopped being a threat 20 years ago and isn't in good health, Paul has never been a threat and never will be.Only saddo's and hangers on will be interested in this freak show. I thought 'bum' fights were finished.

          In an era of "scientifically" approved mass murder, the next logical step to attract billions of viewers in a "boxing" show might be the death of someone famous during the event.

          If something bad should ever happen between these two, I hope it's not Mike Tyson.

          But we all know this is actually nothing but a pathetic farce.

            and you, Elliot Worsell, are getting exactly how much for writing this ? bringing how many eyeballs to BoxingScene?
            There must be a reason why I was reading Worsell and Christie's writing on Boxing News until a short while ago, and now I read them here.

                Boxing scene, no report on the big Mayweather vs Gotti III rematch?

                Kidding, but 'ey, there was something on the Pacquiao exhibition, and that was only three rounds.
