If we look at history, is the Floyd-Tyson exhibition THAT bad?

    Some people are freaking morons. The Dunning Kruger Effect is real. There's a video of Mike released before the Paul bout where Mike is hitting a guy who has protective gear on. He looks okay. There are still people based on that who are saying he has something left. When it's pointed out why he didn't show it against Paul people are saying Mike threw the fight. Huh??? He's cooked, baked, done. He wore a freaking knee brace in a boxing match!!!

    Well anyone expecting a serious exhibition of boxing let alone a competitive fight, deserves to be disappointed.

    A fool and his money are soon parted.

    Last year the amount of idiots expecting to see even a remotely similar version of Mike Tyson mid 80's? 40 years on, that's the power of social media and fried brains believing everything they see as fact.
