It was what it was. Both were mostly just trying to not get hurt and held back from throwing bombs. Not sure how much more Tyson really had to give though at 58. As Roy Jones pointed out repeatedly, he looked wobbly from the 3rd round on. It was cool to see Tyson in great shape just for the nostalgia, but I kept telling my kids they just couldn’t possibly understand what an absolute machine Tyson was in the 80s and early 90s.

After 1st round Tyson was done. Was the biting of the glove a sign for Paul to slow down

Nostalgic regardless. Two things missing, Tupac walk-in song and white towel robe.

If Tyson had anything, he still had power. I think he was definitely throwing shots with bad intentions. He is 60 years old and I think the first thing to go is the legs and reaction time. I really don’t know what everyone expected.

he and JP got a payday, period end of story

Mike is the GOAT in terms of aggression and raw killer mentality. This was just a money grab between 2 friends. Yeah he's old but this was Hollywood. No refunds.

No athlete in my life has struck me as half the badass mike is. He's smoked pot all day for years and trips mushrooms for breakfast to get over his traumas, so he's chilled out a lot. Compare his podcast to how he used to be. That anger isn't there THANKFULLY as he deserves a good life

I always believed when he was in his prime if he didn't pick up boxing as a way to murder people he would have stabbed 30 people to death, total killer IRON FKIN MIKE

Oh no doubt if this was prime Tyson Jake would have been KOd early IMO.

It’s just hard for me to say it was a fight watching it live

If this was prime Mike, Paul would have never taken the fight.

I’mi read sonewhere that if Mike knocked him out for three rounds he didn’t get paid. No idea of rumor or true.

Definitely true I box a lot for a hobby and can tell you.. Just watch his training videos of 2024 and compare to the product we saw yesterday, night and day
