Does Mike Tyson need money?

Can't figure out why he would want to do this.

But then again, Foreman surprised everybody.

Foreman was badass at an old age and in his prime too
Tyson looks like he can still move, although not as fast as his younger days. But looks like fast enough to beat Paul
Idk what his angle is but in his mind, he's a scrapper, that's for sure.

Yes.  Tyson had that "anger" that he could channel into his punches, lol!  That is what made him so dangerous in his prime.

The more you hit him, the angrier he got.  But he controlled that anger.

Until the right moment presents itself.  Then Boom.  Pau. :thumbsup:

This fight is getting the attention of a wide range of folks.  I think true clash of generations.  Was talking with some folks I work with yesterday, with some in the mid-20s and range to 50s.  Interesting convo as those in their 20s weren't alive when Tyson was champ, but many of them were pulling for Tyson.

You know what I liked about Tyson?

He wasn't that big for a heavyweight.  Chiseled, but not big.  What was he, 5'11 or so?

But that anger.  And determination.

And his ability to channel and focus all that anger.

I wonder if they got that phrase "Eye of the Tiger" by watching his face when he fights.

He was scary quick and power (or so it appeared) in his hands.  Style of fighting 'inside phone booth' and combo of body/head hooks, plus that upper cut.  Yeah, bigger guys could probably take punches, but most couldn't move like Tyson did.  I used to watch his mitts sessions with that old trainer.  His punches were a blur!

Never heard of this Jake Paul guy.  But it seems he has everything to lose.  Even if he wins.  Because if he wins all he did in the eyes of the public was beat a 58 year old man 30 years older than him.

And if Tyson wins (which I hope he does) then this Jake Paul clown is finished.

Why do I feel this is a money grab fight between both of them.  Kinda reminds me of the huge build up and anticipation of the Paquiao/Mayweather fight.

That fight was more like "Let's give them a show....."

If Tyson loses, nothing changes.  He still will be considered the best in boxing.  And he will retire with money up his ass.  Not like in his younger days when his promoter took most of his earnings.

If Jake Paul loses, make ass.  He can go back to making Yoo Toob.  But he also will have money up his ass.

It's a money grab.
