He has a fight this summer with Jake Paul, an upcoming young guy with some good potential at 9-1. Tyson's very good and he's very dangerous, but at 58? It's been 4 years since his last fight. Paul's only 27. I don't know how many rounds it's set for. TYSON

Paul doesn't fare so well against boxers.

What's his payday gonna be?
Years ago, when I was younger and even dumber than I is now, I told friends that I'd fight Ali for a million with my hands tied behind my back. Try my best to stay out of range, and when I got hit.....................why hell, I've had my bell rung for a lot less.
Million dollars was a lot of money back then.

Sad really, to see one of the greatest boxers to ever live, broke.
Tyson is alot slower, not as mean, but I bet he still has big time power. Love that guy!

Paul has a much longer reach, solid jab, good right hand, and a big mouth.....Tyson will have a short night, will wake up and think he's in Japan again. Paul isn't a real boxer, he just pretends to be, he's a social media boytoy that shows off all his women and fancy cars.

Tyson has spent the last decade stoned. It’s not just age that will slow his reflexes. At damn near 60 going against a kid less than half his age who has speed, reach, and young muscles, I do t think it ends well. Unless he connects with one of those thunderous rights, I don’t think he wins. Stay retired champ and enjoy your MaryJane.

I don't think he's broke. He has a thriving weed business. At least I think it's thriving. This will get a ton of views. Seems like anything Mike does attracts attention. I grew up watching him fight. Go Tyson!

Tyson fought a bum 50 year old man 20 years ago, lost by TKO..... I wouldn't expect him to have gotten better lol
He has plenty of money, and his wife is very successful.....stay retired and keep what little brain cells you have left Champ.

Regardless of how it goes it will be a big payday for both.
Possibly the greatest against the young kid. If the kid wants to win he better pack a lunch and wear his best dancing shoes.

Streaming on Netflix does this mean any of us can watch it then? When I was younger I boxed and the son of the gym owner was up at Cus Damatos place in 84 or 85 when Tyson was near g the time when he turned pro and told me once Tyson was a truly terrifying boxer. I fully believed him too.
The way life should be.

This is the result of being hit in the head too many times. DUMB, even for a groid.
