    If Tyson was in his prime Paul would Sh*t himself away by fight night and probably enter the ring at Lightweight !

    I am hoping Mike has enough to destroy Paul.
    Paul looked terrible against Fury. He looked like someone who can't fight.
    If Mike loses easily there will be every dick head thinking they are world class boxers and how boxing is an easy money sport.

    The best outcome for boxing as a sport would be for Mike to crush him in a minute.

    Jake Paul still looks horrible technique wise in his latest footage but he's strong, juiced and 30 years younger than Tyson. Power is the last thing to go but I fear Mike doesn't have any cardio left and if he doesn't get Jake out of there in the first round it can get ugly for him.

    Yep my thoughts exactly. I am really hoping Mike takes him out quickly.

    I think the opposite. It's always a pleasure to see Mike Tyson lose.

    I wouldn't say the world does.
    I'd prefer the criminal drug-addict hype-brand PED-freak with the rubber pee-test willy to be KO'd by Paul.

    Paul is an abomination but he's not so different except for not being absolute low-iq criminal trash, just extremely trashy. Paul is actually quite smart. He's also a product of American capitalist entertainment, just like 'Iron' Mike. Tyson was made into a brand and the merch and hype was pumped around the world for mass consumption.

    In the end, say what you want about Paul, but we all who you'd all prefer to have a civil disagreement with out on the street or who you'd prefer to bring into your home. I doubt Teddy Atlas would be pulling a gun on Paul to keep him away from his underage niece.

    Jake Paul doesn't deserve that fight, not even against the old Tyson. I don't like Paul because he avoids fights, he lost to Tommy Fury his first opponent with a pulse, even if he is not too much better than Paul.

    I get some of your point but don't forget it's about boxing, and not individuals. And seeing a YouTuber KO a former extraordinary talent fed by Cus D'Amato is still sad.
    And Mike certainly had problems but somehow he is genuine

    Jake Paul has made a mockery of professional boxing. That's why

    Easy - because he’s a mega douche YouTuber who only does gimmick fights and now fighting a 60 year old man. I’d love to see Tyson flatten him in the first round too, but I have a hard time believing this fight is real.

    Don't get me wrong, mate.
    I'd love to see Paul fight someone like wilder ( even tho he's shot). Or other fighters for example that you have already mentioned. But Paul's simply in this to make as much money for as little risk as he can, and fair enough but don't pretend it's anything more than this. His fight and loss to pretty boy Fury shows roughly where his level is at in the pro game side of things.

    But, compare Paul's estimated ring earnings to date against some one like Tommy Fury, and Paul is on another financial level all together.

    Maybe Paul will start taking riskier and more competitive fights further down the road, maybe the taste for real glory may kick in, who knows.

    If I was a billionaire I'd employ the world's finest boffins to build a time machine purely for the purpose of transporting Paul back in time so he could get demolished by prime Tyson in 20 seconds.

    The world loves ATG HW, not youtubers.
