Keep an eye out for this young lad, 91kg, around 14 stone of power, he’s a nephew of a friend of mine. Harley Fraser Fegan. Watched him fight recently, he’s got ‘it’. 

Can’t get the bleeding video to load!

Jake Paul v Mike Tyson was I am afraid , for me at least, a somewhat sad spectacle  . Paul won and I am not contesting that but he was shit and Mike was what he was , a 58 year old man albeit in great shape for his age .  Mike did not charge in like he did in the old days and seemed tentative . by the third he just looked tiered . You cant stop old father time . Now Mike has another loss on his record and the problem child can say he beat Mike Tyson . The whole thing was very sad .

Sounds like they both lost.

I’m just glad I waited till this morning to watch it

I'm watching it now. Also glad I didn't stay up. Sad. Like his last fights before - Mike wasn't firing. There's a video of how he feels inside - I'll try and find it.

He misses the old him. Boy I know that feeling.

Two potential outcomes:

Tyson beats Paul, and he loses to a 58 year old retiree.

Paul beats Tyson, and he wins against a 58 year old retiree.

 

There are no winners at all in this situation, except for the people who are 7 or 8 figures richer. So, everyone? 

 

Man, what am I doing with my life getting scratched to f*ck in a hedgerow hunting for ivy-covered logs for pennies. I should have been a shitheel youtuber millionaire.

60 is the new 40.

 
With all the current sports medicine available like Stem cells and Peptides etc, Mike Tyson isn’t your regular guy.

 

He has trained hard and his muscle memory from years of that type of training will have helped him get back in shape.

 

I’ve heard that there are contractual clauses saying that if Tyson wins in certain rounds it will reduce his purse.  I have also heard that Mike Tyson is gonna go for the knockout.

 

As for tarnishing his legacy.  That remains to be seen.

 

I hope Jake Paul gets kO’d.  He lost to Tommy Fury and he is an active boxer with a lot less calibre than MT.

 

 

The winner was Father Time!

 

Mind you the Katie Taylor vs Serrano fight was pretty good.

 

Basically the two best female boxers to ever fight.  Banging action from start to finish.

I tried to watch it last night but the Netflix feed crashed the system.

 

Yeah a lose lose situation but on the plus side it has brought lots of new eyes on the sport.  JP has renovated a large number of run down boxing gyms in Puerto Rico.

 
He was also the one who brought the two best female boxers together, twice.

 

He gained my respect a bit more as he could have gone for the KO of Tyson but eased off in the latter rounds.  
 

Would have loved to have seen the Tyson of old.  It was a bit of a throwback for me as we always used to get together with mates for Tyson, Lennox, Naseem or the Eubank, Benn, Reid, Collins and Calzaghe fights.

 

The glory days of boxing.

Is mike Tyson bleddy boxing again?
