Comments Thread For: Mike Tyson says fans shouldn't be concerned about him fighting at 58: 'I'm going to be OK'

[Phase III]

What is there to be scared of? This fight is a complete scam. Eight 2 minute rounds, 14oz gloves, everything scripted like the WWE. Looks like JP plans on fighting a woman next so he need to get used to the 2 minute rounds, and it goes in the fighters official record. Is that in itself not a scam to the boxing public? Can anyone find a fight (not an exhibition) that has gone on the fighters professional record that was 8.. 2 minute rounds? No, it doesn’t exist!

Taylor v Serrano is a good fight which you can bet the house Serrano will win now that MVP (Jake Paul) and not Eddie Hearn is the promoter.

Not so hard to believe the corrupt Texas Boxing Commission, (aka Combative Sports) is overseeing this scam. Now let’s hope corrupt Lawrence Cole ( horrific referee.. Loma v Salido, Pac v Barrera, Spence v Ugas, Juan M Marquez v Jaca), who took over for his corrupt father ****ie Cole isn’t the referee? What an effin joke.

Is there a rematch clause?

About 20 years ago I was watching a Joe Frazier interview on ESPN hosted by Brian Kenney. At the end of the segment he asked Joe to work a heavy bag setup in the studio. As he continued to pitty patty his punches, I waited patiently for the same Smokin' fury he had displayed as a prime athlete. Less than 10 seconds into it, the host thanked Joe and ended the interview. It was very sobering to see the time worn man who had enthralled the boxing world as a heavyweight champion.

I can't dump on Jake Paul for going after green with celebrity fight events because he's only filling a void created by a ***********al sport that makes it rare to stage the best fights. But for real, getting in the ring with Tommy Fury, I can stomach. Mike Tyson at 58, no, that's messed up. Lame.

Speaking of "sobering," at that time, Joe Frazier was likely deep in his cups, and probably
not training hard. Even at age 60, I would pick an in-shape, on the wagon Frazier over Paul.

To the average man on street Mike training vids will be impressive, but I'm sure Jake looks handy too in his vids.But
Jake got no credit for beating old Anderson silva. So why don't people accept jake won't get credit.
Jake needs to fight jai white

I just read that he smokes (SMOKES) $82k worth of his own weed PER MONTH. I'm wondering how he's even still alive honestly, nevermind being in any sort of athletic shape. 82 THOUSAND dollars worth of unfiltered cigarettes PER MONTH. How is that even possible? His friggin lungs must look like fresh asphalt. I met him as a kid and always loved the guy but gee whiz...

Marijuana and tobacco have very different effects on the body. If it was 82 thousand in lucky strike, Mike would be less than a corpse.

Mike has reason to say all will be ok because this farce has the stench straight out of the Vince McMahon WWE playbook.

Tyson shouldn't be doing this. I want Jakie boy to get KTFO so bad but who are we kidding here, Iron Mike is an pot smoking old man who got knock out by a journeyman almost 20 years ago. Getting embarrassed by an 11 fight former disneyboy youtuber would be a new low low.

Mike was on Logan Paul's podcast eating shrooms this weekend. how the **** can the state athletic commission sanction a pro fight for a 58 year old pot head who is doing shrooms a week before the fight?

its some pad work and he has muscle memory but i dont see any vids of him doing actual defense work in real sparring. that is what i want to see how good his defensive reflexes are in non choreographed work.... if they had any vids that looked impressive im sure they would have released them to promote the fight. which tells me they dont.
