This is sad. The good news is, nobody will think any better of Jake Paul for this "win."

Mike look bad?

Mike look bad?

I mean, he can still throw a punch, but he just doesn't have the stamina and quickness to hang anymore. It's pretty bad. I think Jake is toying with him, or paying him enough respect. I think if Jake wanted to he could have floored him by now.

He looks his age.

Sheesh

Round 7 done. It's gonna go the distance, and no one is getting knocked out. Jake is not gonna KO him out of respect. But he will win the decision easily. Tyson should have never done this. It has been sad so far.

oof

Both avoided. Jake Paul withheld. I don't watch boxing, but it seemed like Mike simply didn't want to go down, and Jake wanted points without putting Tyson down.

Regardless... Netflix has likely never seen these numbers... so this kind of shenanigans will happen again.

Over. No way Paul doesn't win, but that was pretty disappointing. Not sure why anyone thought it would be different, but was truly hoping that Tyson would show more life and get some shots.

Heck, the women's main event made me a fan. I'd tune in to watch that carnage again.

Hard to watch that main event.

The prelims were outstanding though!

Yes

One of the most overhyped boxing matches I’ve seen.

100% scripted.

I may hate Jake Paul more than Florida. Dude is a douche bag.

 

[DrRosenRosen]

The women's fight beforehand was all action. Good stuff.

That’s what happens when a self promoter fights an over the hill champ. Scripted and both took home huge sums of money. If you expected more, shame on you.

About the only way Mike had a chance at winning this fight was if he could get a knockout in the first 30 seconds or so. Strength can hang around well into old age, but the stamina and quickness go.

That fight was incredible

Welterweight fight before that was pretty good too.

That fight was incredible

Also enjoyed girls corner calling out the awful officiating and her opponent's history of head butting everyone.
