Jakes been boxing for only a few years and he’s a salesman Jakes giving Mike a chance at a nice payday Fake matches in boxing started long ago when don king destroyed the sport

Imagine what a young mike would have done to Jake 😄 it would be a miracle if he even made it to the third round

@@Narrowcros that’s stupid as Jake wouldn’t fight a young Mike as he’s a trained pro fighter that started at a young age Jake didn’t even start boxing until his mid 20s and has done pretty well Jake and Mike are simply doing this for a big payday is all relax it’s just a show

@@JustmekpcJake claims he wants to become a contender in the heavyweight division but he needs to fight real ranked professionals , not retired ex-fighters. He’s a shameless hustler.

@@cycleoflife565 would you fight anyone he’s fought? I doubt it and he’s simply mailing a lot of money just like Ali did by getting people to hate him like you

Yep. Up until now I firmly believed Tyson would be scraping Jake Paul's skull off of his gloves by the middle of the second round. If Jake Paul gets on his bicycle, or motorcycle rather, Mike won't get many shots in his range. That could make anyone sloppy and impatient. Johnny Nelson makes a good point that is difficult for Tyson fans to acknowledge. On the other hand, Jake Paul can't even drop a mediocre boxer close to his own age. You can't call him a can-crusher. He don't have knockout power. Also Paul's lack of fight IQ could become a factor. Tyson dips his toast in the sweet science every morning with his breakfast. He has encyclopedic knowledge of the sport of boxing, and its psychology. Jake Paul, on the other hand, is a savant at staying within the public attention span. He uses that time to peddle various goods and services generating a massive income stream. I've got to pull for the boxer over the prize-fighter despite Mike Tyson's age. This is a closer fight than I initially thought.

Yeah, Tyson's old!! This whole thing is a fiasco!!

@@kjaze Boxing fan here, former well above avg. athlete and coach. Jake compared to Tyson IS still slower than Tyson. Not by much but enough to make a diff. and Jake as compared to Mike has NO POWER. And ALL of Mikes matches were against Boxers. And everyone of them in the pros were BETTER than anyone Jake has gone against in boxing. Jake then bad mouths Tysons daughter. U do not add fuel to the fire. Jake is not even an average level athlete in anything.

@@mikthe2004 Jake has no skill, has never been hit by anyone that can punch even half as hard as Tyson STILL CAN. I hope that Mike still has enough power to move Jake sideways with a punch like he did Much Better PRO fighters. I want him to feel that happen to him with one punch and the next one its lights out for jake. And Tyson never gets above jakes ribs.

@@forreal2398 Did you not see Tyson's last 2 fights against nobodies? And that was 19 years ago!! Why do you expect him to be better now ?? He's not prime Tyson!! He's not even 30% of what he was!! He's going to look like Sly Stallone in the first round of "Balboa!!" He will be swinging and missing , and then he will be tired. You're underestimating Jake Paul. He's young and strong. He's not a top pro boxer, but either is Tyson!!

I am 65 and do amateur Muay Thai matches in Thailand against teenagers and 20's guys. No one wants to get a liver kick or a headshot from the old guy.

I’m 125 and a ninja. I throw stars and blow darts and whippersnappers are afraid of me.

Yeah but there is young and inexperienced vs young and competitive. I’m a 41 year old blue belt who can beat the shit out of teenage white belts, but I can’t compete with competition level fighters in that age group.

I totally agree 👍

@@hillerm probably at purple you will…

I think you're pipe dreaming. Tyson is a legend (.). He will gas fast against Paul and this is not to credit Paul's boxing whatsoever, it's just too much to expect what this guy clearly explained for Tyson to stand with a guy half his age. No offense to Tyson at all. His weakness will be energy, lost mobility not Paul's boxing.

Are you for real? Mike is 58! Ffs I’d beat Mike Tyson in a ring.

Mike is nearly 60! For once I agree with Jonny Nelson. Mike took the bait I’m afraid but really hope Mike wins. Would be incredible!

🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ did you watch Tysons last fight 20 years ago?? After 4 rounds he was bust, tried out! Now add 20 years of being out of tbe ring and taking mushrooms and weed every day

This aged well 😂

analysis

​​@@markmarsh27 noun Plural noun: analogies a comparison between one thing and another, typically for the purpose of explanation or clarification. The post you replied to has the correct word for the original post (@reproman695) .

Agreed. Age matters, but only when all things are equal. There's a huge disparity in skill level.

@Soothsayer-ll6pm Yes, I understand all that. But some of the best heavyweights of all time said no one hit as hard as Tyson and have you seen what he looks like now? He has really been training hard. But, I also agree with the age factor. Tyson is going to have to go on the attack and try and take him out fast and Paul is going to have to try and stay away from Tyson and wear him out by increasing the number of rounds the fight goes. At any rate, going to be interesting.

@Soothsayer-ll6pm A bunch of 50 something Hall of Fame NFL players take on a high school football team. Who wins? 61-year-old Michael Jordan goes one on one with a small-town local varsity star. Who wins? Jake Paul is a notch above an amateur boxer. 9 of his 5 wins came against opponents in their pro debut. He hasn't progressed through the ranks and at this point is awkward and easy to hit.

Nah I don't think Jake willl do anything too sloppy at the beginning. He'll wait for Mike to get tired ...which will only take about 90 seconds. Fortunately Mike Tyson is tough and he'll probably be able to take the punches. Tyson vs Roy Jones tells you all you need to know, they were both fucking knackered after 1 round

mine too

You are right about what was going on with Mike at the end of his career. But you CAN compare a a 20+ something Mike to an almost 60 Mike. I'm a Mike fan - and I promise you -- he can't be super explosive for more than a 30 seconds run in each round. Fortunately that may be all he needs in one round -- but it's "hope". We remember Mike and are hoping beyond reason to see the Mike we knew. That's what video footage is for and its good enough for me. Jake Paul should not have Mike's scalp on his resume! Heresy!

So you cant compare old mike to old mike

@@rudy8409 what do you mean I can't compare? I just did

@@nateclark2731 "you cant compare old mike to current mike" You cant compare old mike to old mike. you cant compare mike of the past to mike of the present (who is now old).

@@rudy8409 I wasn't comparing prime Mike to current Mike. I was comparing the current Mike to the guy who lost his last few fights because he said his heart wasn't in it, the troubled Mike.

Truth. The delusion from Tyson fans and so called 🥊 experts is too much. Both will fill their pockets and the fans will pay it

Who said he is 85????

Na I think Johnny Nelson is 100% right. It’s not that an older man can’t hurt the younger man.. but people are underestimating Jake Paul. He isn’t world class.. but he is young, fit, hungry and has been training everyday for years with some tough guys. Not to mention he can bang. Everyone wants Jake to loose but objectively, Jake is actually not a bad boxer and Mike is 30 years older with back problems. I just can’t see Mike winning this, even though I hope he does.

It's literally a fake scripted fight. Lol Debating who's going to win is no different than debating a WWE match.

Stop using the word "literally." You aren't aware of it's power and it has no place in hyperbole.

@@thenighttrembler7892 literally is the opposite of hyperbole. And this is literally a scripted fight. Lol "It's easier to fool a man than convince him he's been fooled." Twain.

No one doubts a 58-year-old Mike Tyson can hurt any man on the planet if he can lay hands on him. The question is if he can lay hands on him. The endurance question aside, it's not just speed and power. It's also timing. I'm very skeptical that he has the timing to find Jake's chin. Mike's mitt work is impressive - for 15 seconds at a time. But that's muscle memory. I still haven't seen any sustained sparing footage. That would give us all a better idea of where Mike really is.

Shits relative. Roy Jones opinion is based on himself as an old guy fighting Mike Tyson. Roy Joy's style is even more reliant on speed then even Tyson's. And just like the Tyson fight he over estimates himself relative to another fighter (Jake) so naturally thinks Jake doesn't have a chance as he found it hard. Older people still feel mentally like their younger selves & think they can perform just as well... they need to badly fail to realise their bodies have changed.

​@@SupaPoopaScoopaeasy now,that's a bit too rational

Roy jones is also 60…Dafaq you talking bout

@@khabebomallie9467 jones is 55 and tyson 57

You're right, but it's not a clown show, it's an exhibition, just like the RJJ/Tyson "fight" was an exhibition....big gloves, no hard head shots, make it look good for the cameras, fast combos hitting gloves, arms and shoulders. light taps to the stomach, harder shots to the chest.. Result : draw. If it was an actual boxing match, it would be very one sided. Paul would win by TKO or KO before the 5th round. When it's all said and done Tyson is 57 years old and Jake Paul is now equivalent to the level of a pro boxer who fights 6 and 8 rounders, Mike would gas out early, catch a lot of hard shots, get hurt and be stopped.....just about every young heavy in the world with a winning record fighting 6 and 8 round bouts would stop the 57y.o. Mike Tyson in less than 2 rounds.

Boo hoo

Someone called "putin is god" should probably be more worried about another clownshow. How's your three-day war going?

@@apollyon1 the only current war I acknowledge is the one with our own Government. You should look into that 👍

i agree, if mike tyson wants to do it, then let him, he's getting payed well im sure

Well, then why don't they get back in the ring and win the title?

To add to this yes also in unbelievable physical shape. Someone go tell goggins that a 20 year old will outrun him. Tyson is seriously in the zone right now

Jake Paul has never picked an opponent he was not certain of beating, and he picked Mike Tyson for the same reason. Tyson is not even a shadow of his former self (I am not knocking him, he is 57 yes old). All the people saying he will knock Paul out within a few rounds are thinking of the fighter Tyson used to be. Go watch his last 2 competitive fights and check the level he was at. That was 20 years ago. I doubt he has gotten better since.

​@@j-mshungu7326 he got his ass kicked by Tommy Fury

Johnny Nelson said it exactly how it is and was 100% accurate.....it ain’t a fair fight no matter how great Mike Tyson was ,the sad fact is Jake Paul is a strong young bull in his prime and father time is undefeated

@lexithebullterrier3813 He's an amateur compared to Mike. Jake has never fought anyone with Mike's power, center of gravity, or power. 1st round ko by Tyson. I know plenty of what you call old guys that can kick the shit out of punk ass kids.

@@lw3918 believe me I want to see Tyson humble this kid and put him unconscious.I agree he’s obviously got the power to KO Jake Paul but the fact is Tysons just the shadow of his former self, he’s good in short spurts but time plays havoc on your stamina and punch resistance.Hope I’m proved wrong though

No he didn't, let's be honest

@@Generalindifference Roy Jones Jr. said it best. It was an exhibition and I didn't want to awaken the lion. Tyson stunned him and then proceeded to just hitting him with body shots. Roy even admitted that those shots were pretty hard. He was getting a 60% version of the present Tyson.

@Gamevet sure Jones is old aswell, neither were anywhere near being what they used to be and Jones never fought him before so how would he know,you believe any old nonsense, how about the videos of mike with his walking stick

@@Generalindifference What does the gibberish you just wrote have to do with anything?

@@Gamevet hardly gibberish really,just clearly pointed out you are talking nonsense, no suprise you don't understand tho

Mike was very good at closing space down and forcing his opponent into the corner. Pauls tactic is going to be staying as far away from Mike as possible. I can see Mike closing him and folding him pretty quickly no matter what anyone else says.

I agree. Mike was 23 years old and 27-0 when he fought Buster Douglas, and he went 13-6 from then on. And the Douglas fight was 34 years ago. Jake Paul is a good fighter who is 27 years old, 6'1" and weighs 200 pounds. Remember what happened to Evander Holyfield when he tried to fight an MMA guy at 58.

The same thing goes for Mike. If Jake lands a good solid punch.. Mike could be done as well. Sure.. he still has power. But he's got the chin of an almost 60 year old man.

Don’t be stupid. Mike is 58.

There's a no knockout clause!

That would be perfect. Jake stiff on the mat unable to get up. Lesson learned !!!

Yep, Mike can surely deliver a liver punch in the first round. After that, Jake Paul would lose his game plan and get knocked out.

maybe he will bite his ear off? I've seen that before.

thats nearly 60 man, stop taking it personal

@@user-fl6jn1wb2t PFFT. it's more than a thousand days.

3 years is nothing

@@donjohn2695 it makes a difference every couple years. I'm 63 and I am speaking from experience just three or four years ago. I was able to benchpress 405 pounds. Now I'm down to 310. No matter what I do. I cannot get that power back. I'm starting to lose it as I get older we all get old.

@@donjohn2695 I read another article where they said he was 56 so what is it is he 60-57 or 56? They make excuses for this guy and by the way when I was in my 50s I was much stronger than I am at 63.

In today's day 70 is really old!!

The fight against Jones, they were both moving in slow motion. But still plenty of power.

A middle-aged Foreman won against a World Champion. While a bit older Tyson will be fighting a glorified amateur!

@@peterjohnson1734 lol can't wait hope it's not rigged though.

@@peterjohnson1734 Foreman won at 45, 58 is not the same. I mean Jack Johnson boxed at 60 in exhibitions. But it's pretty unusual.

@@rorykendall No, it's not the same but either is the skill level of these two. Can an average high school quarterback throw a more accurate pass than 57-year-old Troy Aikman or 62-year-old Dan Marino? Probably not! Sure, Jake Paul should be able to beat an athletic 58-year-old who was once a decent boxer, but Tyson was at a level far beyond anything Jake Paul ever was. To get to that level it takes a progression of better fighters to hone that craft.

Because foreman was UNIQUE a one in a million boxer for his age

Just to sell the fight, ever seen a pro wrestling promo?
