Sheesh

They should just make it an every-dog-for-himself 3-way dance and bring Mayorga onboard. Pressers will be legendary.

 

That's just sad

 

Every now and again the sport reminds you how much it is struggling to capture a casual audience like it did in the 70's and the 90's. What a horrible idea this is.

 

Would not be surprised to see Floyd embarrass him. Tyson looked like a crippled old man against Jake Paul.

 

...somewhere Cus and Uncle Roger are looking at each other like " you believe this ****?!?!"

 

In the OLDE days, guys like Dempsey would do many exhibitions in between making movies, stage shows and fights.
I suppose this is new to us but it's not new to boxing.

 

...he fought welterweights, did he?

 

Mark, this isn’t thread worthy even by your standards bro.

 

Mayweather saw how Mike did with Jake Paul and had to get in on that money fight

 

No but his did fight exhibitions and trained with the Jamaica Kid who was a MW.

 

Tyson is a crossover star with immense appeal; he's one of the most well-known American sports stars of the 20th century. Jake Paul is a huge name, too, in new media. Mayweather vs Tyson does not do anywhere near the same numbers. Floyd's exhibition against that Geordie Shore muppet sold less than 20% of the capacity at the O2.

Floyd is not a draw to casuals in the way he thinks he is, definitely not like Tyson is anyway, especially in these circus events; he's already run them into the ground because he can't stand the fact that the sport has moved on without him.

 

This is absurd. Tyson literally can’t fight anymore. If they fought for real, Mayweather is probably capable of knocking Tyson out. At the least, administer a humiliating beating.

I hate this. Just no.

Floyd can still fight. He isn’t who he once was, but he can fight. So can Pacquaio. If they are both looking for money, why not a rematch? Same age, same general size, fair fight, why not?
