they can’t even agree on the rules…it appears to be tyson’s way of putting paul over to make him legit…lol does tyson have a license or will he even pass a drug test?

i hope it’s legit, but even a 57 yr old tyson will have rough go with a trained guy half his age.
 
that was extreme, and I was pulling for Holyfield for the most part...but Holyfield was killing him with head butts and nothing was being done to stop it. I don't blame Tyson for reacting strongly.
The smart money might be on taking those odds since I read Tyson has become a vegetarian.
 
I agree @Hark_The_Sound_2010 ... I dont care how old he is, Tyson is dangerous.
This is kinda where I'm coming from on it. A younger and skilled boxer should be able to beat a 57 year old. And, I have no idea how good the other guy is and he could win in a dominating and dangerous fashion. But, I've got a feeling that Tyson could still pack a hell of a punch even at 57. I would not want to be on the receiving end of that.

didn't somebody somewhere here post a clip of Tyson sparring recently? I saw it. If you see it and it doesn't drop your jaw, nothing will,

yes, exactly. anyone willing to bet AGAINST Tyson is just nuts, IMO. he's still the biggest sports bad ass of all time.

i’ve seen the videos of him hitting a trainer who isn’t even throwing his own hands…he has not defended himself vs a real opponent in years.

go watch the roy jones jr “fight” in 2020…it was a joke.

again, paul fights and is not a small guy…i hope tyson knocks him out, but i don’t think he will…they’re friends i believe, so i think this is a bit of a joke.

I might, but I passed on it the first time because I have no interest in patty-cake exhibitions, although I heard it was better than that.

But what I was really talking about was not Mike Tyson and some other fighter swatting it out, but imagining someone of us getting in there to see how long we could avoid that trip into oblivion. I would almost do it just to see what that felt like, but as I said before, only if I had nothing left to lose.

I know this got postponed due to Iron Mike's ulcer or something, but has it been reset?
 
it would be so boxing if the netflix servers couldn’t keep up.

hoping tyson kills that punk, but i don’t see how that happens…that s yesterday was completely staged…and they aren’t testing because paul is obviously on steroids and mike smokes weed hourly.

eight two minute rounds seems like it favors the old man, but the gloves are heavier, so who knows.
 
huh?…they’re all friends.

the mexican dudes just beat the hell out of each other and they’re boys.

the issue at hand is eye balls…and as it appears, the netflix servers weren’t prepared.
you must not be aware that a good deal of what you post makes no sense, at least not to me. I won't ask for clarification which will likely lead to even less clarity, but I can provide that my previous reply was a joke based on what Tyson was quoted as saying to the reporter.
 
I tried to watch. Netflix kept kicking me out. Hope they made a ton of money because the next big streaming "event" they have people may pass due to the issues. Imagine having friends over and not being able to watch? Regardless, sounds like I didn't miss that much and I'm glad the wife and I just went to bed. Saw this and thought I'd link it so people could remember what boxing could be.

I’ve never been a big boxing fan but if more fights looked like that I’d probably start watching.

try ponying up for the Tyson-Spinks match, friends and food and beer and the whole works, and stepping to the bathroom for a quick wiz before it started, only to come back and find it was already over. I missed the entire bout. Hell, I think even I could have avoided getting punched out that quickly.

In those years, boxing in general was nothing short of phenomenal. Any weight class was good, and in fact the lower weights had even more crazy fast and furious action. It spoiled me, and I have now lost interest almost completely. I actually started watching boxing when I was like five, but that was X number of years earlier.

Try to find some old bouts on youtube. I've never looked for any, but I assume they are there. I wouldn't bother with Ali (except against Frazier), there is a lot better to be seen.

maybe your jokes suck, even when not political.

probably so, but that doesn't explain how little sense your posts sometimes make. I wasn't trying to be mean or anything, I generally like your posts when I can figure out what you're saying.

Hagler is my favorite boxer. That dude was bad. Those welterweight/middleweight battles of the 80s were special - Hagler, Hearns, Leonard, Duran, etc.
