    I'm not sure why this thread is here. This is supposed to be a boxing forum. Youtube stars and 57 year-old exhibition fighters isn't boxing. The moderators should remove these type of posts.

    If a fight were to break out.....I would not like to see Mike lose. with that said....power stays with you a long time. if i were betting....and a real fight broke out....I would still bet on Mike.

    I hope Tyson breaks his jaw, ribs, nose and bursts his eardrum.

    With the rules set in stone now, this is for sure going the distance with the 16 oz gloves.

    The whole thing is a circus and a disgrace.

    Yeah I'll give it a skip. Glorified sparring session most likely but I don't see a 58 year old guy beating a guy in his 20s that trains.

    Viral media. Even talking about it feeds it. It's just monetizing attention seeking behaviour.

    Ridiculous is the point. Gets people talking and interested. Hate the state of it

    I am watching Paul vs Danis right now on ROKU. Wow! I can just imagine Mike Tyson vs Logan Paul if Mike was the same age as Logan! My only question would be, could Logan get past the first minute? I am pretty sure Logan would be going down for the count in round #1.

    Fortunately for Logan, and unfortunately for Mike, they are no where near the same age. But it is an exhibition with 16 oz gloves and 2 minute rounds. A Draw/NC/ND is likely, I guess.

    I know how to legally extricate myself from that predicament - but I’m not revealing any of my chess secrets.

    You might’ve noticed me playing on line - I go by the name King to Anus.

    If Mike Tyson rigs the fight too crudely his legend will take a hit, if he loses by knockout like Holyfield against Belfort against a YouTuber his legend will take a hit. I really hope he knows what he's doing because at his age it's dangerous to start like that again. Unless he would have boxed a guy almost his age but even a Kevin Johnson beats Mike Tyson today who must surely not have stamina after 3 rounds.
