The fight is pro and not an exhibition fight so both fighters will try to hurt each other, Mike Tyson's last fight was against Roy Jones Jr. and he showed that he could still keep up but that was years ago I don't know his stamina in a real fight now, but I hope he can put Jake Paull in his rightful place and that is entertaining people on Youtube.

wait, I remember seeing that they announced the fight would be an exhibition match it's also I kept saying in my previous post that Mike Tyson or Jake Paul would really be in danger or anything since the fight is just an exhibition match, did they recently change it?

edit: I did a quick search and it showed several articles posted hours ago saying that the fight has been sanctioned as a pro bout.

Yeah the new rules have just been published recently. Before those changes the fight was just an exhibition without even judges and no recognition of any boxing organisation.
Still, the fight is a joke and everybody knows it. It will be a little bit of a secret handshake deal where both acknowledge to not hurt or embarrass the other guy.

Tyson has nothing to win here, it's just a pay day. Imagine him losing, even though this fight is just a joke it will still hang like a shadow over his career in my opinion.

Or maybe I am wrong and this fight will be an absolute fight fest with both giving their all. The odds for this happing are very slim though.

I agree, whether this is deemed as professional or exhibition, Tyson will show up just for the paycheck. If he wins then good, it won't put any on his legacy as he cemented it when he retires.

And if Jake Paul wins? again, being in this kind of high profile celebrity fights, he might want to look for another big one, maybe another legend or rematches those who he had fought before for more money, win-win for this two fighters.

It's true, no one loses on both sides. And I have no doubt that Tyson could try another fight regardless of the outcome of this one. Both for the money and for the chance to beat someone else, as the fights will count towards the record

Turns out this will become a professional fight and it will go into each fighters professional career results as well, I did not expected this because it is 100% obvious that it is an exhibition match and nothing more. They are doing this only for the money and nothing more. I get that some fans will want to see something serious, because it has the potential to be a serious fight but to be fair I am definitely certain that we are not going to get a serious fight here, one of them is a youtubers brother and the other is a 50+ year old retired boxer, result shouldn't really matter here.

In any case, there are things that is required when it is professional fight, like medical expert team ready with all the gadgets, so that makes me feel better about this fight for sure.

Perhaps he haven't follow boxing or exhibition matches as we all know that this is not a professional fight and as such, it will not end in 6 seconds because people big money just to see Mike Tyson. And if it ended it 6 seconds, it's going to be one of the biggest scams in boxing.

Officially this fight between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul is now sanctioned as professional fight and it will count on both fighter records.
This is surprise for me, most people expected this to be exhibition fight without judges and with draw possibility because only knockout would count as a win.
Instead we are going to have eight rounds that are two-minute long, so there is a chance someone wins on points.

Whatever you look at it though, even if this is sanctioned as a professional fight, it is still 100% exhibition. A pro fighter, a legend against a glorified Youtuber. That is no match and purely for entertainment purposes only.

Of course, they will have to put some spin on it and supposedly now become a pro fight to hype it. They just want to removed the stigma of Iron Mike vs Roy Jones Jr wherein even if there is judges, the fight was declared a draw.

Yes, it's all over my feeds, both fighters will take this fight seriously but even if this is an exhibition they are still going to hurt each other, both fighters are used to fighting real and knocking out their opponents.

It will benefit Jake Paul because in case he beats Tyson his ranking will increase and the organizations will notice him and give him mandatory opponents so he can rank that could fave the way for him to get the respect that he wants.

But if Tyson beats him up people will look down on Jake Paul and they will just mark him as an exhibition type of guy while Tyson besides the earnings will put another feather in his cap in his illustrious boxing career.

if Jake Paul really wants to make a name for himself that garners respect in boxing, he needs to fight actual boxers, so far the majority of his fights are non-boxers.

He did but he failed, Tommy Fury beat him by a decision that was a grudge fight and a real test of Jake Paul can challenge and beat a real boxer, so he went back to fighting non boxers like Andre August, Bourland, and Nate Diaz to regain his confidence.

This will be among one of the top fights ever in history in boxing.

it's not, I mean, a young YouTube personality who wants to be a boxer who mostly fought non-boxers fighting a retired 57 years old boxing legend with a health issue isn't really a and will never be a "top fights" in the history of boxing.

From my observation and information Jake Paul simply want to make a name in boxing, and that's what he us working towards of which this fight can make such show.
I believe Mike will end this show in 6 seconds with a a super Knockout(KO) can't afford to miss this fight.

Let's not exaggerate, this is an exhibition fight, and that alone disqualifies it to ever become as important as you claim it can be, and if that was not enough this is a fight between an influencer and a boxer, which despite being at the top of the boxing word when he was a professional, he is way past his prime.

So if you are excited about this fight that is cool and all, but do not try to make this more than what it is, otherwise you will be disappointed when you watch the fight.

agreed with this and its probably just to test what mike capable of when he is in old age already, jake paul probably try to make name in boxing but he already popular honestly before even engaging in real boxing world.
its just exhibition match, sole purpose is making name and money, i don't see anything more than that, but it might pave the way for jake paul for his future career if he somehow wins, but if he didn't well its just exhibition match.
remember that being old don't lie, stamina depleted, anyone expecting mike to be performing like he was in his prime days will be in for disappointment, though i can be very well wrong about this.
just see the match for what it is, not to mention that its live in netflix is obvious, this fight is not to create the most awesome nerve racking boxing fight ever.

Why nobody is discussing that the fight is going to be as a heavyweight fight? Cheesy

When Jake was always a cruiserweight. Even though on the paper that can be only few kg difference, on the fight day, the difference might be +10kg. Jake will be having a debut as a heavyweight (already a soil for excuse if he looses Cheesy

), so stamina factor might not be so obvious on Jakes side.

Stamina might be no question for him since he's young but for sure what people think is can he able to handle the solid punches of Mike? For sure the power punches is their and that's enough to make Paul sleep in the ring. If that happens for sure he will became a meme on social media group or pages. But lets not think about he will be easily fainted once he receive those solid punches since maybe Paul is trying to figure out on his training on how he can handle those punches and also maybe he's camp would think about other way to defeat him and make his youth as advantage so that Tyson will get tired and they can penetrate on that situation then take a win against the legendary fighter. All is just speculation and I'm excited to see this fight to happen since this is one of the interesting match to watch this year.

I also can't wait for this fight to happen, I'm very curious to see Tyson's performance.

Mike Tyson has the experience and all the technique in his favor, despite being young, Jake Paul is just another... Tyson is the LEGEND, he is one of the greatest, he may be older, but all the knowledge of fights and of boxing remain unchanged in your brain. Everything leads us to believe that Tyson will win, I still think it will be quite easily.

Instead we are going to have eight rounds that are two-minute long, so there is a chance someone wins on points.

This is also a surprise for me. I wonder who insisted on converting it from exhibition to pro. Or why they have made such a change? Was it due to low ticket/ppv sales prediction? Because a professional fight sounds more attractive. And it seems that they have changed only name of the fight, while it still has crutches in rules. 2 minute rounds - because Mike cant handle tempo at this age? Or to give Jake extra chance to survive Mikes push?

Yeah, makes me wonder though, in any case, it is will be a pro then people might think that Mike has the advantage? However, the are factor will be again entering the picture as for sure he will have difficulty of surviving the full 12 rounds in this fight.

Or perhaps they just wanted to put more hype in this fight so that people even casual fans are going to be interested to see how Mike Tyson will go against a young and ambitious fighter in Jake Paul, really lots of questions here.

However, this could fight is not as what we expected, as base on the odds, Jake Paul is the favorite and not Mike Tyson.
