Why did Mike Tyson slap Jake Paul? And all your other questions answered ahead of their boxing bout

I hope Tyson knocks Paul out in the first round. The fight should not be happening, but it is so I’m about to watch it.

 

[Val Keating]

Could’ve done without seeing Tyson’s arse after that interview

 

[Jonnoo]

Haha Mike without the undies

 

[Jonnoo]

Tyson will be gassed after 1.5 rounds.

 

[Val Keating]

Katie v Serrano was a great fight.

 

[Val Keating]

Serrano was robbed there

 

[Jonnoo]

I thought Taylor was a bit cleaner with her punches, Serrano was coming in with her head leaning forward, great fight though, prob be better than Tyson / Paul

 

[the big lebowski]

So 21 year old Dyson Daniels from Bendigo is quietly turning into Michael Jordan for the Atlanta Hawks

No joke

 

[Jonnoo]

Tyson’s old man arse

My son just said to me, typical old man, just doesn’t care

Yeah I’m no boxing aficionado, at all, but thought Taylor tagged Serrano with some belters. Serrano jusy did same thing over and over and walked into a couple.

I hope Tyson lands a shot within 10s and ends it.

But the Paul's are good at paying people off for a spectacle, will more likely go the full rounds and go to Paul on decision regardless of how well he actually does (again)

 

[Jonnoo]

Should have wheeled Tyson out in a wheelchair

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Jesus Christ, 20s in and you can see just how good Mike was.

 

[Jonnoo]

Mikes limbering up his teeth

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Tyson spent already.
Conditioning going to cost him big

 

[krakouers]

Jesus Christ, 20s in and you can see just how good Mike was.

Terrifiong that the man that quick is 58

 

[Jonnoo]

Yep he’s cooked

 

[Val Keating]

Tyson showing his age.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Should have cancelled the fight when he got sick.

2min rounds seems to have been a concession to the conditioning.

This is hard to watch now.

 

[Jonnoo]

Mike still has the skills, the head movement and solid defence, but Father Time has taken his speed and tank

 

[Val Keating]

Paul using his length to stay out of trouble and Mikes feet aren’t quick enough anymore to charge in.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Paul using his length to stay out of trouble and Mikes feet aren’t quick enough anymore to charge in.

The difference in build is striking. Paul is gaining so much advantage from his extra reach.

Yeah. If they were fighting with 10 ounce gloves he’d only need one shot.
