Mike Tyson is NOT playing with Jake Paul anymore (2.Viewing)

I was going to add more choices like, knockout, decision etc but in the end its just.... who wins.

My pick Tyson

Be careful voting, in this poll you cannot change your vote so the winners of the poll will be clearly reported.

I watched Tyson rise in the 80’s so I have to pick Tyson. And it could be a quick fight if he lands that big punch. Both guys have a lot on the line in terms of reputation but I’m sure it’s a big payday for both.

I’m picking Tyson as well….

Who remembers the Tyson interview from CP24 (Toronto) from about 10 years ago?

I believe no real journalist would bring up Tyson’s previous rape charges but Nathan managed to do so and FAFO.

If Tyson gets his shot in early, it's all over, but if this fight goes over 2 rounds, then Jake will use his speed to wear him down, much like other fighters did to Tyson during his actual boxing career.

I was thinking the same thing, as is probably most everyone else, but then Tyson's team must then know this too so he's probably been building up his cardio and has a game plan not to wear himself out chasing.

Jake got into boxing later in life than most fighters but has kind of proven himself with some decent wins, so it makes for an interesting match up for sure.

I'm just hoping that a guy who had actual talent beats the guy who got famous for being an idiot in social media.

Everyone over 50 is hoping Tyson wins

I think Mike has a lot of younger fans from the Hangover movies too.

Netflix also has a show that is a lead in to this Friday's fight. Has anyone seen that yet, is it good?

Surprisingly, while being a definite meathead with a checkered past, Jake Paul actually has a bit of talent, with quick hands and some power in his punches.

I still think Tyson will end it early and ugly, but you throw 99.9999999999999% of the male population in the ring against seasoned fighters like Ben Askren, Tyron Woodley, Mike Perry, Anderson Silva, and Nate Diaz, and it would result in a very quick trip to the emergency ward. Jake Paul also knocked out pro fighters Andre August (10-1) and Ryan Bourland (17-2) in the first round, while losing a split-decision to undefeated boxer Tommy Fury.

He can definitely fight and take a punch, and none of these guys is going to "take a fall", especially someone like Nick Diaz, who would probably rather die than fix a fight.

So he's a not a joke, but I don't think he's close to even Old Mike Tyson's class in a boxing match. But we'll see, as Jake could force Mike to chase him around the ring for 2-3 rounds, then start to actually fight. And no matter how good Mike's cardio is, he's still 58 with a lot of mileage, and that matters.

I just hope it turns out to be a fight, and not a track meet where Mike is crawling around after 3-4 rounds.

Yeah, I have to acknowledge that Jake has done well for himself in the boxing ring so far. This new world of famous people getting famous for nothing is just something I haven't come to terms with yet... So based on that alone I'd love to see Tyson drop him quick. But I also have to admit that he could drag it out and wear down tyson...

This is about what i thought of that fight too, lol

There were a couple of hard shots early on by both guys, but after being rocked I think both decided to take it easy so no one got hurt.

Pretty lame that Mike didn't keep up the pressure at the start, but I'm also glad Jake didn't pummel Mike in the later rounds when he was slow and tired. No one wants to see The Champ get humbled due to age, a la Holyfield.

And everyone should be glad it was on Netflix and not an expensive PPV ticket. Now that would be truly sad.
