Jake Paul Phony Fights Discussion

Netflix is getting into sports. Boxing is kinda easy to get into(staying is a bit more difficult).

 

Nobody watches his fights. I think it came out that they have to give a lot of tickets away to fill up arenas. His peak was beating MMA guys and losing to Tommy Fury.
Now he's fighting pretend boxers from like North Dakota, and that's just bread and butter celebrity boxing. Like Mickey Rourke "fighting" guys paid to fall down.
People don't tune in for that.

 

An old and shot Roy Jones Jr had a draw with an old and shot Mike Tyson.

Jake gonna smoke him, why Tyson agreed to this, i'll never know.

 

Because it's scripted as hell?

 

Mike Tyson can zero Paul with one punch. He doesn't need to even box with Paul. He just needs to time him and connect which he can still do at age 56.
I expect this to be a pity pat exhibition and a big waste of time.

 

Sign of the times. Netflix is coming for sport now they've lost their monopoly on movie streaming

 

Where is the option 'draw' in the poll? Because that will be the result.

 

Realistically, money is the only reason to do it.

And yes, it's very much a question of skill Vs fitness - a bit like Fury-Ngannou or Fury-Wilder3, just a much more extreme advantage in skill for one bloke and much more extreme fitness advantage for the other.

 

I am not gonna pay PPV. Maybe secretely watch it "somewhere".

This should be canceled.... A lot of reasons... Health, legacy, age difference, probably stupid soft rules... There is NOTHING Positive about this.

 

Tyson is doing far better than Holyfield. I think he'll still be able to fight.

 

Let's be honest. Boxers fight for the money. They are not doing it out of the kindness of their hearts to entertain us. Same thing Jake Paul is doing.

The only difference is that boxers have to become famous through boxing to make big money. Jake Paul was already famous.

 

They agreed on no headshots in advance.

 

boxing is ruined.

Tyson to many is the greatest of all time to see him at 57 doing this and probably taking a dive for a nice payday will be upsetting.

 

At this rate Paul will pretty soon have a better resume than Wilder, and potentially Joshua.

 

Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson? Paul has to be out of his ****ing mind.
