I want my money back.
While these two "fighters" want another 20 million each, so.... points decision, rematch.
Predictable script, with 20/20 hindsight. -
A snore fest , a shit boxer v an old man , no surprises

I hope Mike comes alive and KOs Paul in the final round. He looks nothing like his sparring videos. Perhaps he's been told not to knock him out
Dude. He's 58, deep in to the final rounds. His sparring videos were cuts of a few seconds.
I know. But my childhood memories of him are immense

After the 1st round I hoped we might see a decent fight, then about halfway through the 2nd you could see where it was headed.
Good payday for both...
Saw a comment on SM that Paul had a clause if he wins, he gets Eastwood and Freeman next 😄

Same. And what I watched wasn't that.

@MN5 It was just part of my standard subscription? But yeah waste of effort to open the app and keep reopening the stream when it buffered.
Yeah that’s exactly what I mean.
13 bucks a month or whatever it is.

Paul's stock nosedived after that
Tyson took some really good shots and I think Paul felt he couldn't knock him out so stayed out of range
Tyson wasn't quick enough to close the gap and pile the pressure on inside
Great post-fight comment to Ariel's question about the mouthguard and glove

if there was a Mr T version it could be "I pity the foal"!

The part of Tyson at his best that gets overlooked was his fast feet and his legs were very strong , even if he trained up his upper body strength which you still can do as you age , but that quick footwork was never coming back .
