Never been a fan of Paul and watching this tonight just cements my thinking on why he doesn’t fight “real” boxers. He’s a brawler but he’s just not as good as he likes to tell people he is.

Overall the night of fights was fun to watch. I hope Netflix jumps in the deep end of the boxing pool

Even 10 seconds of windmilling him would have been worth my time.

I’m not sure what is going to end up being more a waste of my time in front of the TV this weekend. This Tyson “fight” or the Seahawks 9ers game.

If Jake Paul fought real actual boxers without pillow gloves he would be nothing...hes a circus act who makes a lot of money doing it.

He’s simply about his brand. Can’t fault the man for being worth gazzilions because of all the sheeple that pay money to support his “influencing”.

The world has gone mad. Celebrities these days don’t need to have any real talent for acting or sports or anything other than having the good fortune of having a bunch of simpletons who support someone for no real reason. Kardashian much?

Our society has become a caricature culture.

Please Scotty, beam me up.

What a disappointment. They hyped that fight up so much and all it ended up being was a money grab.

The undercard fights were pretty good. The Tyson fight was ridiculous. The hype was ridiculous and the money…. Wow. If that was a charity event and just a tribute to Mike it woulda been cool, but everyone wanted to see Mike fight and he could not even get a punch off. The only part I liked was when jackoff bowed in respect to the shadow of Mike Tyson

Did you watch any of the undercard? The women out on a helluva show. Made up for the lackluster main event.

That chick did a lot of head butting. That score was a rip off. The two Mexicans put on a show, but the first fight was boring and I don’t get when the Indian guy was humping on the other guy. And why did Mike have to moon everyone I can never unsee that lol!

Yeah that was a good match for sure. I was speaking specifically of the Tyson tickle fight.

First and last fight were both a waste of time IMO but I enjoyed the middle bouts quite a bit

The middle bouts were absolutely legendary. Those ladies absolutely beat the shit out of eachother.

Paul clearly saw that Tyson didn't have it. He wasn't going to KO Tyson out of respect. The fact that they accepted betting on this is embarassing. Heavyweight fights are usually pretty boring anyways, but this was next level pathetic.

Agreed. The celeb worship and what is considered talent and entertainment is awful...

The women's fight although a horrible decision was good...probably shoulda been stopped after the cut but they had to drag the night out. Seeing Tyson's ass was probably the highlight of the night. Apparently there were a lot of buffering issues on Netflix. It probably made a ton of money but it was overall a flop.

I've been around here long enough to "know" a lot of you guys and last night confirmed one thing...

We are getting old.

So...Tyson/Paul turned out to be a fake fight after all, eh?
Both those guys could make a killing on the wrestling circuit.
maybe, maybe not... Mike looked unstable on those tiny legs.. whats Paul gonna do..beat the shit out of a 58 year ole man?

Y'all missed a pretty good U Dub game to watch that carnival sideshow, huh? And it turned out that a 58 year old man trying to "fight" a 28 year old man wasn't a good fight? Well that's just shocking. Shocking I tell you. :ROFLMAO:

Don't forget to tune in next week when the corpse of Nancy Reagan fights Pee Wee Herman. I heard there's some genuine bad blood between those two. Should be intense.
