    You are right. I initially got the title wrong, thus I change my vote.

    I originally misread the title and thought it was Patterson versus the real alive Tyson, not his rotting decadent corpse.

    I got it wrong at first glance too. Floyd stops this version of Tyson.

    Anyone who thinks Floyd would knock out Tyson should really give up this hobby of analyzing fighter matchups. You have no ability for it. Collecting coins or stamps could be your thing though. You never known till you try.

    We are talking about the walking 30 second tribute act that fought Paul....

    The funniest part is that you're talking like this thread is about 1988 Tyson. It's about a nearly 60-year-old Tyson who fought Jake Paul. If you can't distinguish between prime Tyson and a 58-year-old exhibition-level Tyson, maybe boxing isn't your thing.

    Even though I made the thread, Patterson destroys this version of Mike Tyson and for an encore destroys Jake Paul in the same night.
