    It’s a huge step up for Paul here! Everyone was saying “Fight a REAL boxer” well… how about the former HW champion of the world apparently in top shape??? Jake said “How you like them apples haters???”





    Ok maybe a stretch there. But Mike probably goes out for a ten count here. This sport isn’t for 57 year olds to go against guys in their 20’s

    It's gonna be a boring live sparring session

    Rules:
    16oz gloves
    No judges to score the fight
    It won't be a winner unless there will be a KO

    This won't be a real fight. More like a sparring session.

    Paul already showed his level by getting schooled by Tommy Fury who is pretty awful and barely beat ****ing KSI.

    Mike Tyson is 100 years old with completely destroyed legs

    It will Jake Paul ring circling pulling punches jib jabbing and Mike feigning to be super dangerous in a 10 round spar where Jake probably wins some weird decision

    Both are treating it as fun not a fight

    Mike Tyson can put himself in danger, he thinks he still can, but you can't fool time...

    Its just Something to watch, Paul would get smoked even by a 57 year old Tyson if it was real.

    From that video released the other week after training, Tyson needs help walking down a set of stairs ffs, and that’s him being juiced to the gills.

    He’s lucky they’re wearing pillows and being saved from an hellacious beating at the hands of Jake Paul. Netflix should be ashamed funding this elder abuse. :facepalm:

    Holyfield made a comeback at 58 years old and got ko'd in 1 round against an mma fighter.

    If it weren't gonna be on netflix, i wouldn't spend any additional money on it.

    Either way, as others have already said, this'll be a glorified sparring session. Punch resistance drops off precipitously as one ages. A boxer's entire head at the age of 58 might as well be made of glass. Jake Paul could certainly knock Tyson out and seriously hurt him.

    It's a disgrace just like all these YouTube clown shows.

    Imagine being in your 20s and being proud of fighting an almost 60 year old.

    How about Paul fights someone hes own age and weight ?

    Tyson in his prime would finish off Paul in literally 10 seconds.

    I have absolutely no interest in this. It's wrong on virtually every level imaginable.

    I'm with you, but it sure would be nice to see Tyson to ko Paul so bad that he stops fighting all together.

    I think Mike will let it all hang out for 2 rounds and if that doesn't work he will look for a way out. Maybe an ear nibble or something like that
