In the meantime, PR is working - this thread is becoming the most popular on the topic of boxing (5 pages left before the record) and this is surprising since we still do not know the exact date of the fight and even confirmation that it will take place at all  Grin Many active professional boxers would envy such attention.

I think the focus on this fight is only because of Iron Mike's involvement. I think if Paul Logan had boxed a different opponent there would not have been such a stir, despite the huge number of his followers. We all want to see Mike, that's why we're waiting for this fight.

Else, the talks about this possible fight will die and there would be no interest that will come from any venues of social medias.
It's okay if the attention will eventually die for this match because the reality is that there's no match for Logan and Mike that will happen.

They need to act and find the suited way to promote and to make this fight happen.
It's from the team of Mike that had verified that there's no match for these two that will happen. That's as per report from the links that have been posted on this thread, the latest posts.

At the same time latest articles from this week say that it will take place in February. Did someone get cold feet?
Mike's at the age when you never know how you'll feel tomorrow. When you go to bed you don't know if you'll wake up. The guy is a legend, but when you're pushing 60 everything weakens starting from reflexes and ending with bone structure. He could really damage himself with this fight.

It doesn't matter to him, he agrees to fight a younger guy so that means he is taking the risk. The funny thing is, even though Tyson is the older, many still believes that he will win, in fact, on the odds that I saw online, he is a heavy favorite to win against Logan.

They should have made a statement before, why it would take months that people already speculating because they will say that no match will happen. Maybe the new rumors that they arent' getting a license to fight in Nevada was the problem, so they said there's no fight, instead of saying the fight will not push through because they didn't get the required license.

It would be super absurd if, after such a massive PR, this fight does not take place for one reason or another.
that's what I thought after hearing it here. I said in my previous post that Mike Tyson's side could have ended the rumor after it spread to the public, but they didn't. they clearly wanted it to spread and get as much attention as possible.

According to Mike Tyson, this fight is not happening.  He said there wasn't even serious talks with his camp about this fight happening.  This from the latest Nelk podcast where he stopped by with Dana White.

Mike did say that Jake Paul's camp reached out to him about a possible fight, but that there was so many people involved and it was clearly all about the money for everyone.  Mike said he wasn't feeling it.  He stated that he wanted to fight because he loved the sport, not to make a bunch of kids a ton of money off his legacy.  Dana even said that Mike Tyson is the draw, not Jake Paul, so there's no reason why Mike needs Jake.  I'm not sure that's 100% true if Mike wants millions of dollars, but as he becomes more and more successful in the marijuana and social media spaces, there's less and less of a reason for him to get into the ring...  He's old, it's not worth it.  I think he could still kick Jake and Logan's asses, but at what cost?

I just wanted to reiterate this as people are still talking like this fight could possibly happen.  It won't.  If you want to hear it straight from Mike's mouth, you can do so by watching this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRYF8t2swqs

It seems that fighting Logan was never even on the table.  Jake was willing to fight Tyson if it was a money grab, but Tyson was not interested.  He went on to say he fights for fun and for the love of the sport and has no interest in fighting for money or to help someone else's cause.  Dana also said he doesn't want to see Mike fight again, and it sounds like with the success of Tyson 2.0, he doesn't need the money anyway.
So this one had really never been considered or put up on the table so it was all rumors which do end up on not to happen on any way.Mike had made out those words which im not really surprised
that a true boxing legend wouldnt really tend to have that money grab intent.If we do go back on that Roy Jones fight against then all of his earnings been given on a charity?
This one alone would really tell that he doesnt really care on earning money more.

I agree into that line on fighting for other or else interest is not really his principle.

Wouldnt imagine Tyson needs publicity but its free so why not and being heard of recently helps to sell and getting noticed on whatever product or brand you are trying to raise the profile of.  I doubt it was Tysons decision himself no doubt he has a PR team.   Glad he doesnt have to fight really, if he was serious about the drug problems it sounds like he just needs to stay calm and cool so he can enjoy his well earned retirement.   He should be fine to earn enough to be well off forever on his reputation in theory though he took bad actions no doubt.

If Vegas will not allow it, there's no option but to choose a different venue. Besides, the biggest revenue of this fight might be coming from the PPV, so the venue is not a big deal, the most important is that they will make the fight entertaining so people will get the value of their money.

more on PPV but maybe they are also trying to convinced gamblers to watch and gamble in this exhibition match, not sure though if that's the real score behind in choosing vegas as venue, but it's true, if vegas is not available the promoters can still find alternative venue to continue this deal, if they are trying to hook the attention of more fans, providing details with any possibilities will surely trigger that interest.

Else, the talks about this possible fight will die and there would be no interest that will come from any venues of social medias.

In my opinion, this is simply impossible, most likely these arguments that the fight will not happen, again are the PR of the organizers or the trade of the parties involved for better contract terms.
this is a possibility.

Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson fight tipped to not be given green light in Las Vegas
A potential fight between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul in Las Vegas is unlikely to be sanctioned.
Former UFC champion Michael Bisping believes that strict rules set by the Nevada State Athletic Commission mean that an exhibition encounter will not be licensed
Source: https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/boxing/jake-paul-vs-mike-tyson-las-vegas-michael-bisping-b1996238.html

So, the fight will likely to be postpone as the state of Nevada won't sanction this fight and give a green light to make it happen. I guess the promoters and the management now were busy finding another place just to make this fight happen as lots of people, including me, are already looking forward on this fight even if it's an exhibition match. Hopefully we can hear/see an update about it this week.

I don't understand the legal intricacies of US state laws at all, but are there any licensing requirements for exhibition fights? I assumed that since there are no belts at stake and in fact this event is more related to the show than to the sport, then what could be the obstacles to its organization? I hope we will see the resolution of these incomprehensible problems in the near future.

Now become aware of this too. There are already lots of exhibitions fights where Logan Paul is involved. All those fights are properly and smoothly arranged. Why it turned out that Mike Tyson vs Logan Paul exhibition is now a subject for some conditional requirements before it will be held.

But should we expect this fight will really happen?

We have never ever seen Tyson or Logal is vocal about the fight since the year changed.

I haven't been following all of Jake Paul's exhibition fights, but I guess he is yet to set foot on the Vegas ring.
As you can see from the article, Michael Bisiping a former UFC champion said that It's difficult to get a fight license in Las Vegas especially that It is only an exhibition match.
It is not the fight that actually causes some issues, but the venue. So, I guess the only solution for this is to look for another venue and not in Vegas. 

If Vegas will not allow it, there's no option but to choose a different venue. Besides, the biggest revenue of this fight might be coming from the PPV, so the venue is not a big deal, the most important is that they will make the fight entertaining so people will get the value of their money.

I guess every state in the US has it's own set of requirements and protocols before the they issues a license and green light to make the fight happen, we don't know exactly where they lack in one or two of those said requirements because this fight won't be sanctioned by the Nevada State Athletic Commission. Maybe they can figure out another spot/venue or solution to make the fight happen in the same state because this fight has a lot of money already at stake.

That means the sanctioning body is worried that Logan Paul or Jake Paul will be killed by Mike Tyson even at 55 years of age Cheesy. Mike Tyson will get a sanction as he is a legend and he only wants to prove that he is healthy but Logan brothers does not have any high level boxing opponents in their career and usually the boxing body is strict in giving a novice to get a license to fight someone who was a champion.

Read the shared link. It has nothing to do about the advantage or disadvantages. In exhibition matches, both boxers are commonly and usually not in the same league that's why your statement can't be applied as a reason why the fight will not push through.

In the first place, everything is just a rumor and no official news has been released since the fight become a rumor last year.

He clearly love the sport and if Mike do really mind off on making millions then he wont really hesitate on doing this for the sake of money but it proves out that the passion he had on boxing is never
been that way.

I do respect that call and for sure most fans do amaze about on this decision but pretty sure that we are really longing to see on how Mike would whopped Jakes ass.

It is just Mike doesnt really like on this kind of set up which is understandable.

Looks like the Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul fight is not happening any time soon. They were in talks about the fight and were about to schedule it in Las Vegas.
But as per recent news it is being said that the fight has not be licensed/sanctioned in Las Vegas which again will delay the whole process.
May be we will have to wait few more months before the match goes live.

source : https://news.yahoo.com/jake-paul-vs-mike-tyson-130232404.html
After the news that there seems to be a mutual agreement that they're going to fight for $50M. There goes these follow ups that says that it's not going to happen. But it's good to see that the first news about it was just a rumor and not true. This is much better to see that there's real representative for Tyson to verify the rumors that have been circulating on the internet. Just another article that says that they won't fight from Forbes.
Source: No, Mike Tyson Is Not Fighting Jake Paul, Representative Says

Thanks for sharing the information. Now this clears the fake news that was spread recently about the fight at Las Vegas.
I wonder why they decided to pull back the fight. It could have been a good exhibition fight if they would have hosted the fight.
Yeah, that clears everything that the fight is just a rumor. But I won't say that it's a fake news but a speculation and just a rumor but eventually, we get to see the clearer picture that there's no fight that will ever happen between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul.
The reason why the fight won't pursue is likely due to some disagreement and I think the posts above makes sense why Mike won't take the fight.
