What I don't understand is why it's on Netflix this time.
To make it more exclusive and it's the living legend Mike Tyson that's going to box with Jake Paul. As long as it can be done with this deal, Netflix would have take the deal as long as there's money on it. More subscribers and people will just sign up when they're not yet on netflix and this is just the same as the pay per view that we mostly see from the boxing matches of our favorite boxers.

Correct me if I'm mistaken but since when has Netflix been interested in such events?
I have no idea but as long there's a potential profit for them, they're going to sign deal with whomever who's going to negotiate with them just to be on their streaming platform. Soon, other boxers that have a lot of hype might just do this and who knows if the sports that can be watched on free TV will also be streamed there, at the end of the day it's just all about money.

None of them are losing on the money question and Jake Paul is going win on reputation even if he does suffer a loss so its hard to see a negative for either of them.  Its only the age which is some concern and that can be cleared beforehand I guess.

I like how Tyson points out immediately I dont think Jake Paul is quicker.  The age advantage is irrefutable overall sure but how does some unskilled use their advantages, they waste them typically.   A skilled opponent will account for the negatives they must overcome and prepare for it but I was going to say the same thing Tyson doesnt appear slower then Jake Paul.  It'd be a massive point for Paul if that were true but cant say I believe that at this point.
Its a win-win for him on which getting that exposure and at the same time you would really be able to get that money which is something that it is really that good.
Good thing for Mike is that this man is a legendary boxer and if there would really be offering about getting back inside the ring or with some exhibition on which this is really that a win situation.
I dont know on why it is really that too long or far when it comes to schedule but well its normal considering that exposure and marketing of the said fight is really that important.
Still 4 months as of this writing on which Jake do still have that long time for making up some training at least, for sure Mike is also doing the same but of course in a controlled manner
on which considering that this man is already that old.

Based on the public reaction and comments about this fight with the last video I watched where the host was asking Mike to beat Jake , it seems I am not alone in disliking Jake Paul and his bad character, especially his approach to boxing and how he gained fame by disrespecting many old fighters. It's tricky though how they could and have managed to organize and secure fights against legends in their fields, but I suppose it's all about money once again. However, I will definitely going to place a bet on this upcoming fight, hoping that the aging Tyson delivers a good knockout in the early rounds and satisfies us. It's true that Jake might have more chances as young and has ability to resist more, especially if the fight goes into the later rounds, but I believe since Mike is fighting, he knows what he's doing.

What I don't understand is why it's on Netflix this time. Correct me if I'm mistaken but since when has Netflix been interested in such events?

@kingvirtus09 must be living in the past, he didn't know that Mike Tyson is already old, while Jake Paul though he looks like a clown but he had proven himself as he had more wins than losses, and even fought real pro and able to win. Mike Tyson is old, that's it, even if he is a legendary boxer but he isn't actively fighting anymore, so it's too risky for him to all out in the ring with a younger boxer as his mind might say yes but his body will not cooperate.

We have our own personal opinion here, we respect each other but my stand is Jake Paul are going to win the fight.

AFAIR, there will be no winner if no knockout, so I'm expect he could knock out an old Mike Tyson.
That's the rule no KO no winner and they are also wearing huge gloves for sparring. If Jake KO Mike, this is really something to disgust about this clown. This fight is an exhibition and it is meant to be a DRAW. Those videos showing Mime to have amazing agility are just for the PR. 

But it's possible that he will actually KO Mike, he tried it against Anderson Silva.
Regarding all of this, it seems to be true that Paul is younger and has agility that is probably much faster than Mike Tyson, but regarding the wins that Paul has achieved so far, there are far more than those defeats, such as meaningless victories.
Let look at Paul fighting history so far, he always chooses opponents who are much older than him, clearly this is an easy thing for Paul to achieve victory.
He is just top influencer boxer and some of his wins also came from amateur fights against fellow YouTubers, although I admit there are several former UFC fighters that he managed to beat.
After all, everything he does is just to make money and it is recorded that in every broadcast of his fights he has made tens of millions.

But if Paul managed to make Mike Tyson lose by knockout and fight again with Anderson Silva then that wouldn't be surprising.
Why doesn't he look for fighter who is on par with the basics of actually being boxer, the former UFC is much easier to beat because boxing and UFC have different fights and it is not easy for former UFC to compete well in boxing fights.

How come that clown was able to knock out more experienced opponents if was a «yellow belter» ? That clown had a fight against a professional boxer (if you would say that other opponents were not boxers and were retired), and he did not looked bad. Lost by split decision, but he wasnt knocked out, humiliated or destroyed. The clown has been training boxing for 4-6 years already, and you still call him a «yellow belter». Do you think that during last 4-6 years Mike Tyson has been frequently seen in the boxing gym or in regular gym? From your post it sounds like it will be a beating, but there is always a chance for a sudden knockout.

Tommy Fury is not a boxer. He is a reality TV star and social media influencer who happens to have had a few pro fights against bums with losing records. The fact that Jake Paul lost to him only proves his mediocrity. Since that loss, Jake’s level of competition has only gotten worse, with his most recent opponents being an Uber driver and an oil rig worker. Describing him as a clown is entirely accurate because anybody with a reasonable understanding considers him a laughingstock.

No, Mike Tyson hasn’t been in a boxing gym for the past 6 years, nor should he be. He is an old man who retired from the sport decades ago. Jake Paul has no hope at succeeding against truly elite fighters in their prime, which is why he has to resort to these insane spectacles. Acting a fool for money is what he has always done best.

However, not many will have guts to go into a ring with retired Mike Tyson. Even if Jake looses, he will still be a winner, because of experience he would get, because of money he will get. Isnt it better to be beaten with money, then exhausted from sparring and (probably) beaten by less popular professional boxers with few hundred or thousands in your pocket.

As to fighting against fighters in their prime - but Jake is still a amateur, or a professional on a very start of his career. This looks fair. Otherwise it would be a totally unbalanced fight.

Legendary boxer vs Clown, You made me laugh so much when you said this, hahahah. But it makes sense, which I also think is true. Is that the type where you fight the black belter against the yellow belter? That's how it used to be for me that the gap is so far.

I can't imagine that you are going to fight the former heavyweight world boxing champion in the ring if you know that you are not a heavyweight. It's like what I'm still seeing there: steel vs. wood.

I like his answers on the interview, it clearly showed how confidence he is in this fight. He mentioned that what he is afraid to do, he do it.. Damn, I like the mentality of this guy, he really is a true champion but it will not eliminate the fact that he is fighting almost half of his age, a young boxer, so I hope that as much as he is hype with himself, he'll be able to bring that in the actual fight.
The hypes will always be there and I've settle down to watch how these fighters will either win or lose in their names. These numerous fights without mentioning my name, I think it best suits both of you. It takes only a true champion to stand and not wrong, always here to protect his people with his possible best. As a fighter, there are crucial decisions to take which might either affects your people or work in their favour.

This is the latest interview of Mike Tyson regarding his fight,

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t3xInUaRVhY

And he said that this is a real fight, he said that he is scared to death fighting, but he puts it like something that he uses this as motivation, his fear. Yeah, we might find it weird, but there are individuals who thrive in this kind of fear environment.

He is very much different from the younger Tyson that the older fans have witnessed where he will say during interviews that he will eat the babies of his opponents hehehe. This was his young self who was trying to avoid the fear before the fight. Also, there was another fear that he was mentioned in an interview with Joe Rogan. He said that he is also scared of letting out his animal self. He does not want to be this person that his original trainer Cus D'amato put inside of him. He was trained to become something similar to a killer.



A throwback video of Mike Tyson has emerged. Tyson is seen throwing vicious combinations under the tutelage of legendary trainer Cus D’Amato. Cus, considered by Tyson as a father figure, was instrumental in ‘Iron’ Mike’s career. Tyson, renowned for his insane power and combinations, is set to make a return after nearly 15 years out.

"I was petrified when I was alone with him. If he called me – ‘Mike, I need to talk to you’ – I didn’t feel good going over to him. That’s when he’d start giving me his detailed criticisms of my fights. My knockout ability is through Cus D’Amato telling me repetitiously over and over again to do this movement and to punch with this type of bad intentions. And just to have ferociousness and mean intentions whenever you throw punches and stuff. And try and punch through your opponent, not at him. It was some nasty stuff that I would never tell my kids to do”. Said Mike Tyson to Gq magazine.

Mike Tyson today is apparently a calmer and more human person, nothing like that Mike of the past, has age and life experience done him any good?

Generally, when time passes, people start to value other things, they start to think about a better future, being a better person... It seems that Mike went down that path... That's good.

Yes, is not the young Mike Tyson anymore, however, in his interview with Joe Rogan he implied that if he trains in boxing seriously, this bad person in him who wants to eat his opponents babies will come out. He was also telling Joe Rogan that there might be something wrong with him because in the boxing ring he said that his penis becomes hard if he is punching his opponents. This might imply that there is too much testosterone in his body because he might be using steroids or a psychological disorder. I wish we witness the bad person come out against Jake Paul heheehhe.

He might be old but doesnt mean that he wont be having the power and this is something that would really understandable considering on where Mike is really that been known for.
We do know that this exhibition fight might really be just that for entertainment but it would really be that not shocking if Mike would really be giving a good show.
Tons of boxing fans are really that interested to see Jake would really be taking down in the canvass. I do even see this for 2-3 rounds i should say for it to last.
Good thing that this is really that be live in Netflix. Doesnt really need up that proper preparation for Mike though, this is a childs play.
There's a significant difference in between a boxing legend and a clown.  Cool

Mike might be old but he do still pack a punch and if you are someone who doesnt have a hard or tough chin then you would really be kissing the canvasss on which same as you said. There's a significant difference in between power and experience among the two. Lets say even if he's already that retired but still he could take down those young boxers but the main problem we do have here is into his stamina on which even into his prime days where this is something that a huge problem of his.

Exhibition fights are arranged to give the masses some pure entertainment but we cant really be able to avoid on having that kind of feeling of happiness when
clown takes down.

He just beat Ryan Bourland recently who looks like not willing to fight and Jake is up again for another.
They should call this a fight but an exhibition but believe it or not is happening. You think Mike is done after Roy Jones but Jake wants to pull him again for he just needs recognition from the boxing community.  

I would be surprised if Mike beats Jake. He is 60.  Would you bet if its on Stake?

Jake Paul is set to fight former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson in a boxing match that will be livestreamed on Netflix.

The bout is scheduled to take place on July 20 at the AT&T Stadium in Texas and will be available to all Netflix subscribers. Additional information, including the co-main event and undercards, will be announced at a later date. It is being produced in a partnership between Netflix and Paul’s and Nakisa Bidarian’s Most Valuable Promotions (MVP).

This will not be the first time Paul and Tyson have appeared on a boxing card together. Paul fought in the co-main event of the pay-per-view that saw Tyson fight an exhibition match against Roy Jones Jr. in 2020, which was Tyson’s first boxing match since 2006. Paul defeated former NBA player Nate Robinson via knockout in the second round in what was Paul’s second professional boxing match.

https://variety.com/2024/tv/news/jake-paul-mike-tyson-fight-netflix-1235932856/

            -   Fight between the old and the young; fight between the more experienced and the less experienced; fast action against slow action; and most of all, the weight of the fist and the stamina of the body will fight.

Mike Tyson may be old, and his actions may be a bit slow, but the weight of his fist is sure when he hits any part of his opponent, and he will still tremble with fear. The young boxer will experience the difference between today's boxer and the former world boxing champion in the ring.
When it comes to power then no doubt that Mike would really be having it even if he's old then we do really know  that this man is a hard puncher and that something a trait that cant be changed.
Although age would really be taking up some toll but doesnt mean that it wouldnt be significant when he already aged. This one would really be looking interesting and i do want to see Mike
giving out some nasty lesson to Jake. Legendary boxer vs a clown i should say. hahaha

It would be better that Jake shouldnt really be taking this lightly or some sort of joke. I cant imagine on how he would really be able to handle those power punches
despite of being old. We do know its popularity and on where he's that famous of. Being old is just a number but those traits isnt something that
do fade up completely.

Do you still believe in those kinds of videos or statements? It's obvious that those are just promotional videos. They're overshadowed now, anyway. All of Jake Paul's fights are just like his brother Logan Paul's fights in WWE, purely for entertainment purposes. I'm not fan of this kind of fights. Boring IMO.

To a extend, yeah, it seems that Mike has really learn how to face the camera and talk and in calm demeanor and promote this fight. Unlike before when we has young, every time he opens his mouth, you don't what to hear the words he is spewing. So I will agree with you that Mike is promoting this fight in this interview. Although there could be some glimpse of truthfulness in there were in he is afraid of fear but he will embrace like it a champion which he has been doing for years.  But this is totally different, this is just a exhibition match, although boxing rules can be apply here, still though, it's all for the money now.

The fight is indeed quite worth waiting for even though it is full of controversy in my opinion, Tyson is now quite old and indeed he is still very good at boxing techniques but it will still be very difficult to see him can beat Jake Paul in the match later, not because Jake Paul's ability is my concern at the moment, but the age gap is too far between the two of course allows Jake Paul to have many advantages from performance What he has apart from his boxing skills which so far is quite good as a beginner.

I think what you are saying is true that the fight is like a legendary one challenging a clown, but I think what Tyson did by accepting the challenge is of course very wrong, because I don't think the money he received the fight would be equivalent to the fall in Tyson's self-esteem as a boxing legend if Tyson lost later,  Before Jake Paul challenged Tyson to boxing, of course Jake Paul had anticipated the power possessed by Mike Tyson, so I think Jake Paul would try to make Tyson play open and make him exhausted throughout the round, so when he got the right time of course Jake Paul would attack Tyson repeatedly and maybe even knock Tyson down in the match.

This is the latest interview of Mike Tyson regarding his fight,

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t3xInUaRVhY

And he said that this is a real fight, he said that he is scared to death fighting, but he puts it like something that he uses this as motivation, his fear. Yeah, we might find it weird, but there are individuals who thrive in this kind of fear environment.

I like his answers on the interview, it clearly showed how confidence he is in this fight. He mentioned that what he is afraid to do, he do it.. Damn, I like the mentality of this guy, he really is a true champion but it will not eliminate the fact that he is fighting almost half of his age, a young boxer, so I hope that as much as he is hype with himself, he'll be able to bring that in the actual fight.
Do you still believe in those kinds of videos or statements? It's obvious that those are just promotional videos. They're overshadowed now, anyway. All of Jake Paul's fights are just like his brother Logan Paul's fights in WWE, purely for entertainment purposes. I'm not fan of this kind of fights. Boring IMO.
