Summary
Jake Paul defeated 58-year-old Mike Tyson in an eight-round boxing match, with unanimous scores of 79-73 and 80-72.
The bout, widely criticized as a “stunted show,” highlighted Tyson’s physical decline, including issues with sciatica, a stomach ulcer, and knee problems.
Tyson, once a feared heavyweight champion, struggled to compete, while Paul’s performance lacked effort and authenticity.
Fans, initially supportive of Tyson, grew disenchanted, booing by the final rounds.
Tyson dismissed the fight’s significance beforehand, rejecting the concept of legacy as meaningless. The event was seen as a cynical, contrived spectacle.
The only person who lacks dignity here is the guy challenging someone twice his age to a boxing match.
The match was close despite the age difference and also the difference in the level of class both before and after the fight was staggering.
Jake Paul made a fool of himself.
Nah they probably sat together and said… we can make bank… let’s do this and give people a good show… And then they did the whole shebang and gave people a nice performance that cost next to nothing to produce and pocketed the rest. Pretty clever.
Jake Paul knows some people pay to see Tyson beat the anot out of him, others hate watch him and he has fans apparently.
I dunno mate, reading all these comments instead of doing literally anything else is starting to make me question my own dignity…
