This is such BS

IMike, you have been movies, no need to fight now, nothing to prove. I want jai white to fight.

[The D3vil]

Man, this is such a bad idea.

Tyson shouldn't be doing this. I want Jakie boy to get KTFO so bad but who are we kidding here, Iron Mike is an pot smoking old man who got knock out by a journeyman almost 20 years ago. Getting embarrassed by an 11 fight former disneyboy youtuber would be a new low low.

Can’t believe how much people are gushing over Mike’s training vids. He looks old and slow with tarred lungs. Hopefully this will be ppv sparring like the RJJ one.

forget the "morals" of the display that is coming up on a pure business level it is smart, more people are drawn to Mike these days then people really know. Will it translate to buys ? That is why they are making it happen. For serious fight fans it is a insult and a game, another reason or proof of the what the fight game has become. But most people know the score boxing answer's only to boxing and nobody else fight fans they dont care one bit, they treat fans like they dont exist man they dont even try anymore.

About 20 years ago I was watching a Joe Frazier interview on ESPN hosted by Brian Kenney. At the end of the segment he asked Joe to work a heavy bag setup in the studio. As he continued to pitty patty his punches, I waited patiently for the same Smokin' fury he had displayed as a prime athlete. Less than 10 seconds into it, the host thanked Joe and ended the interview. It was very sobering to see the time worn man who had enthralled the boxing world as a heavyweight champion.

I can't dump on Jake Paul for going after green with celebrity fight events because he's only filling a void created by a dysfunctional sport that makes it rare to stage the best fights. But for real, getting in the ring with Tommy Fury, I can stomach. Mike Tyson at 58, no, that's messed up. Lame.
