The disappointing and annoying part for me , with so many great genuine fights and cards that have been on this year .
This circus event( that’s all it is ) gets so much attention

I don't know how accurate this is, but I did hear that the contract was formulated in such a manner that it was a sliding scale for Mike. If he knocked Paul down in the first he got nothing all the way up to the full amount in the eighth.
If true it seemed unnecessary given how little of the movement was in those old legs.

that would be a damn shame if true: he didn't fight him, he nannied him!

That sounds accurate.
Mind you Tyson is a loose unit, you wouldn’t put it past him to break character and KO him in the first……
…..which despite his age I’d still have backed him to do if he really wanted to

Could this be Mike Tyson's next opponent in his training camp? The winner becoming Undisputed Over 55 Super Heavyweight Champion of the World!
Does Tua even know how to pull punches? If not, this could be entertaining!

Joe Parker v Dubois and bivol v bieterbiev 2 on the same card feb 22 .

Brilliant

Going to be interesting,
I lean towards usyk , given usyk s workrate and motor I find it difficult to imagine a fury points decision in this one .
So if his chances of winning needs to be a stoppage that narrows the odds for me . But anything can happen.

@MiketheSnow that is outstanding.
Looks like my Xmas shopping ( vague ) plans for that day have gone out the window, another fight just before Xmas, Brilliant !
Probably late Sunday morning our time ?
