Do you think Mike Tyson stepping in the ring with Jake Paul is a good idea?

Question

He's going to be 58 and yeah he looks healthy and good in his training videos, he's going to be 58. His risk is much higher for injuries or other things going on. So what do you really think?

Effably · Accepted Answer

Good in what way?

I think mentally it is healthy for him. Being relevant. Reliving his glory days. Back into the limelight.

Financially it is amazing. This is bound to fill his bank account close to bursting. I am not in the know about Tyson's finances but I imagine an extra hundred million, or several, will do him good.

Are there risks? Absolutely. I doubt a doctor would tell him to do it.

Reality is just that it is a very rare chance for both of them to make it filthy rich in a relatively safe and easy fight.

Also, who doesn't hope to see Tyson beat Jake Paul? Not to say I am convinced on how it goes. Age doesn't make you weak at 60 if we are honest. But it messes with recovery. Both minute to minute and injury. Things that used to be fine in a minute takes half an hour. Pain that used to be gone the next day might last weeks.

In Tyson's case? Tyson was a super physical fighter. Relying on speed and athleticism. That is probably the type we expect to age the worst.

Yes. Not only for the payday, but Mike is one of those fighters that had his glorious career prematurely shortened.

Don't see him cutting Jake up, like he could have in his prime. But just that Mike Tyson stance and hook will reinvigorate a lot of people back into watching boxing.

Hell yeah. Dude Jake Paul is literally one of the worst influencers out there. Pulling this stupid shit is just ur one-way ticket to heaven. Ofc Mike Tyson might not kill the dude, but it will knock some sense into Jake.

Tyson will lose, but still get a pot of gold.

KrisKris81 · Answer

I think it's a lose-lose for Jake Paul, he's the bad guy win or lose. Even if he wins the only people will think is how badly Tyson would have destroyed him in his prime. I have to give Jake Paul credit, nobody thought he would be any good at all, but I think taking on Tyson will ultimately prove to be a bad decision.

genericname85 · Answer

i mean it sure is a publicity stunt for jake paul. I don't know why mike does it. maybe he just wants to see if he still got it. but the fight isn't interesting to me. cause any fight that goes over one round is just Mike trying to put on a show and not just instantly kill the guy. i hope for Jake that he doesn't die. but i personally think him dying would be the best outcome for humanity, cause influencer scum like him does more harm than good.

I think it’s a great idea. I think he’s got a great chance to win by knockout.

It would be the most honorable thing Jake has ever done if Mike kills him and the only thing we can truly find enjoyable about his waste of life.

Yes, as long as Tyson's health is good.

KrakenAttackin · Answer

I remember Razer Rudduck saying he had never been hit as hard as Mike Tyson hit him. The Champ knows what he is doing and risking. I just hope Tyson wins so he can end with a winning legacy.

Doesn't matter he will most likely cancel the fight right when its about to happen.
