What’s his stamina like. I did see him drinking lots of coke etc but also benching 3 plates with ease?

no one is getting knocked out. this will be by decision. a line like -330 is begging the public to take tyson as a big underdog.

Prob because Mike is nearly 60. He was past his best when he lost to Danny Williams 20 years ago… this is beyond a mismatch.

It comes down to Mike's experience and knowledge but lack of peak ability versus Jake's peak ability but much less experience.

I don't think that Paul deserves to be that high of a favorite but he deserves to be favored.

I would bet on Mike if I were to wager just for shits and giggles. Especially at those odds.

Looks like there's a little documentary out on Netflix now also highlighting the lead up to the fight. I'll probably try to catch that before next weekend.

Gotta disagree here. Mike isn’t Bernard Hopkins or Floyd, who both had defensive minded styles that allowed them to stave off wear and tear. Mike’s peek-a-boo style is a young man’s style… it’s an explosive pressure style and requires a lot of energy. If Jake goes hard on him it’s gonna get ugly fast IMO.

HA... Tyson is gonna destroy that prima donna sissy-boy. It's gonna be an even uglier bloodbath than the beat-down Trump/MAGA just put on the Leftoids.

I don’t really have anything against Jake Paul but something about his face would just make me love seeing Tyson knock him out cold.

Don’t watch boxing but I’ll be tuning in to this one

He looks slow as shit, dude. I’d love for Tyson to magically turn back the clock but he’s cooked.

If he looks slow in that clip I posted then we have different definitions of the word. Sure... he's not as quick as he was in his prime (obviously), but he's plenty fast still AND still explosive as ever.

...and let's not pretend Jake Paul is some renowned fighter. lol. He's a Youtube glamour boy who beat the likes of Nate freakin' Robinson (lolol) and a couple second-rate Boxers.

:roll:

Are you kiding?!?! Tyson is going to drop him like a bad habit.

I’ll be bumping this lol

And we absolutely have different definitions of fast. You should’ve said he looked fast for a 60 year old man, which I’m sure he does. For a pro heavyweight boxer he’s slow, and Jake might be a mediocre boxer but he’s skilled enough to make light work of old man Tyson.

Guess we'll find out soon enough...

Is TDK Tied to Glorydays for Tyson as well?

To act like he's as fast as he was in his prime, can take a punch as well, moves as well, or can throw a punch as well is a wild take.

He very well may win, but despite Paul facing some pretty weak competition, he's a decent boxer - especially vs a 60 year old.

Mike was washed in his late 30s. No shame in that… not many athletes have a long shelf life, particularly boxers. He was 38 years old when Danny Williams stopped him and Kevin McBride made him quit on his stool. We’re adding another TWENTY YEARS to him and now he’s going to beat a roided up 27 year old? And while he's probably not ever gonna be a future champ, by all accounts Jake takes his training very seriously.

And I’m glad Mike got himself back into shape, I am. But let’s not pretend he wasn’t a major alcoholic and drug addict for decades.

I don’t blame dudes that are around Tyson’s age for thinking “he still gots it”, because it makes them think THEY still got it, but he just doesn’t. And neither does any dude that age. Might as well ask MJ to beat a G-Leaguer in a 1v1 match lol
