Did you all enjoy the pantomime, well rehearsed and directed confrontation complete with WWE slap?

 

[twentyforty]

The whole world is in Tyson’s corner.

 

[Bellend]

If Jake Paul win's what does it really prove?? f..k all

 

[tiger_one]

If Mike Tyson doesn't bite Jake Paul's ear off, I want a refund on my Netflix Subscription. 😉

Yeah I can’t stand that fake shit. It was poor acting to, they should’ve taken some WWE lessons. You could see the young bloke prepping himself for the hit, (sorry slap 🙄), he literally steps in and sticks his cheek out.
But can you imagine if they carried on like NRL players after a game, before a fight? A little post game love fest action, pre fight. I think that would be worse than the fake acting shite.
I just hope to see a little glimpse of the old Iron Mike.

I hope he changes it up a bit, bite his nose off.

 

[Buttface]

Life changer. Dont miss it. Subscribe asap. Netflix loves you. Tyson is running out of money and Paul's drink empire is dying.

Thanks X, if I didn’t follow your every post I may have missed the opportunity to donate. The world is so much better for me now. Thanks again.

Tyson might be 59 years old but you can't tame an animal.

First few rounds will be interesting.

He has almost as many “famous quotes” as Ali.
The one I like ..”I’m not a very nice person” 😜

Can't reply to comments... @twentyforty he is articulate and intelligent, dabbled in psychedelics and experienced ego death

 

[twentyforty]

I have the same reply problem. It worked once when I clicked on the reply radio button a third time.
Yes, he is. I just love his attitude to the sport. No messing around, he knows the objective and carries a well developed instinct into the fight.

Anyone watching atm?
Whos fighting right now>?

 

[The Chad]

Anyone watch the True Geordie shows/podcasts?

Saw True Geordie's interview with Big Joe Egan the other day. Brilliant. If you want insight into a boxer's life trajectory, and the community it has, he's a really interesting listen.

Three major conditions of Tyson and Paul's fight​

Ahead of the fight, the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) has laid down three major conditions for the sanctioned fight between Paul and Tyson to go ahead.

One of the first major rule changes approved by the TDLR is that the sportsmen will be wearing 14oz gloves instead of the standard 10oz gloves worn in a heavyweight fight.

Contrary to popular opinion, heavier gloves do not actually hit harder. They actually have the opposite effect, which is why they’re almost exclusively worn during sparring sessions.

The bout will also see headguards being banned while three impartial judges will stand ringside and score in the eventuality that there is no knockout.

Another major ruling is that instead of the traditional 12 three-minute rounds, the Tyson and Paul clash has been reduced to eight two-minute competitions.
