Comments Thread For: Those who helped Jake Paul-Mike Tyson happen are the problem, not those who watched it

I think there's a tendency to think of Mike as a victim who has no money, but the guy has "Tyson University", a successful podcast, and a successful brand.

I don't think he needs money at this point.

He just doesn't know who he is without boxing, which is sad

If people didn't watch it, nobody would try to make it happen because there wouldn't be money in it. But Texas shouldn't have sanctioned it.

Only problem I had was not being able to watch it due to the glitching and buffering. Netflix should get into the boxing business, it would swiftly take it over in the USA

The author of this article is taking this way too seriously. I've seen actual REAL fights that left a bad tatse in my mouth, like Mayweather vs Pacquiao. That fight cost $100, but looked more like a sparring match. Tyson vs Paul? That shit was free, son!

Those two damned clowns and the commentators built up something that was nothing more than an exhibition and even the world record will be broken in 4 days by Oliver McCall. Shame on everyone involved in making that fiasco. It was most likely in the contract that Paul agreed to not throw a single right hand with full power on it because of how bad of a stain that would have put on Boxing if Tyson was knocked out at his age in the ring with a sht for brains Paul. Pure shame from the whole thing.

Nah, McCall is no Mike Tyson. Not even close.

Wait what? Oliver McCall is STILL fighting?

That is depressing to hear.

Yeah, and sanctioned which is so crazy.

Saturday proved that Mike Tyson, even in 2024, is still one of the most powerful brands and marketable auras this sport will ever know.

Wasn't a fight though IMHO, was 100% a work.

TBH I'm glad, because you could see in the first 20 seconds Mike didn't have the legs or fluidity for this thing to be a real fight. I'm very relieved we didn't see a legend get pointlessly battered but I get why all the casuals are mad, but thats on them.

I’m not watching Jake Paul garbage until he fights Fury again. The fact he lost to Fury tells you all you need to know about Jake Paul
