I'll admit my ignorance on the issue, but from what little I've seen of the man, he seems like a poser/poseur however you want to say it, Paul is a braggart and a nincompoop.

Well done. Imo it was all about the money nothing else
Well done Paul.
I thought it may turn out like American wrestling but there were no punches pulled in this fight Paul took some good shots he isn't as bad a fighter as people were making out before the fight, the question is could he have done it over 3 minute rounds back in Tyson's day, i doubt it.

£40 million pay day.
so glad i did not stay up watched it the next morning waste of time Tyson was not fit to fight his knee was gone and clear he was not giving his all the script has now surfaced and almost exactly as it played out all just a show.
Fair play it was a final pay day for Tyson and he showed he can still take a punch if nothing else having watched his training videos on the build up I am convinced it was staged as a former boxer very fat and late 40's not quite as old as Tyson but some things don't leave like following up once you have a opening and countering when your opponent guard slips, watch the fight Tyson pulled back several times.
Also the shots landed count was a joke a glancing *** by Paul was ducked and slid across Tyson's head but this was given erm nope no way.
The scoring all 9 and 10 for both show me another fight where this happens please.
Was show nothing else and way Logan responded I would kill you Mike!

Maybe we didn't give Tyson enough credit -
If you watch Tyson training video in lead up to the so called fight it's clear he pulled his punches and backed off fair play he got a pay day can't fault him for that tbh

Regular.
yeah it was totally a joke fight. paul is a joke . if you want to see him in a real fight watch him lose to fury in the netflix doc wild child. (the doc is good btw) . fury was not about to take a dive for cash. what really does it for me is at the end when tommy fury says what he is doing for boxing is really great. i understand this. boxing is a dying sport it has been for many many years, so any advertisememnt at all will be good for the sport i guess in his opinion. then fury got a reality show out of this. it really drove home the message of how badly this sport is fixed. for me at least.
jake paul is not a pro fighter he says so himself. i am pretty sure all his wins are against amateur boxers. not to sya he hasnt done really well for himself. the guy is an internet marketing genius.
as is his brother.
good for them .
not good for boxing imo
