Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul

[Barrister]

Tyson biting Holyfield was over 25 years ago.  He's a much older man now.

Fair enough. I still think that crazy leopards don't change their spots.  But I guess we'll see. Well, I won't, since I'm not watching, but I'll probably watch clips

Maybe not change their spots, but 100% people slow down.

I see that in my job all the time.  All these criminal hell-raisers tend to just age out of the criminal justice system by their mid-40s.

That's where steroids come into play

It *is* a sanctioned fight though.  So I won't say there won't be any steroids (and, at age 58, Tyson might be able to legally get some anyways) but it's not going to be the wild west.

It started, for those so inclined.

Maybe they can both lose.

I'm with Rogan.  Anything but a KO of Tyson please.

Spoiler




On the upside the fix was not in.  It was a real boxing match, except the rounds were reduced from 3 to 2 minutes.  If it had been 3 Tyson would not have lasted long.

It was what you would expect when a 58 year old fights a younger man at his physical peek.

One of the commentators summed it up nicely in the fourth round - " this is hard to watch"

Sounds like it was a terrible advert for attracting new fans to boxing.
