    Jake Paul is cringe AF I see him trying to talk trash to Mike and Canelo.
    He claims to be good for boxing but he tries his hardest to mislead casual fans with his BS.
    I saw the open workout where he attempted to go southpaw he is so unco he hasn't even mastered fighting orthodox lucky for him he only fights retired fighters that are usually half his size and have never boxed before.

    Watching the open workout, Tyson's right knee is shot and his legs look shaky. He's not getting much torque and snap on the right hand. Paul's wildly mediocre, though, and even guys like Diaz and Perry were able to touch him up, so who knows. Hope he delivers a brutal knockout.

    I still have a hard time believing this will be a real fight. If it is, it of course would be great to see Tyson flatten him in the first round. If not, I can’t imagine a 60 year man that already had to postpone this fight for medical issues will win a decision.

    He's 58, not 60. I think at that age every year younger does count.

    Tony Bellew crashed the press conference I am guessing he wants to fight Jake Paul

    I'm seeing similarities between Trump and Paul. He may have future US president material

    Watched a video of Tyson doing a round of sparring and his legs are completely shot. He might as well have taken a heavy bag in the ring for all the movement he did.

    I wouldn't make any kind of conclusions of the Roy fight, Mike obviously had to use most of his energy to hold back to not accidentally shatter Roy's chin into million pieces. I think he will KO Jake and it will be a glorious spectacle.

    Can you imagine 27 yo Mike fighting Jake Paul in the prison yard? I would bet 5 packs of Marlboros that Mike would receive an additional 20 years to his sentence because of the result lol

    Tyson tko or ko rd 1


    I think he’s gonna clip Jake Paul in the 1 st rd !!!! Tyson’s only chance is the first 2 rds or he’s gonna gas !!!!!
    But I still think he clip him In the first rd just a hunch
    Hopefully it’s not a stupid exhibition
