I'm sure I heard somewhere that Tyson will get a 5 million dollar bonus for going more then 5 rounds, thus evening it up.

It'll be benter than that Katie Taylor fight.

Serrano got robbed tonight.

They don't half pad-out the interludes between fights compared to the UFC, where it's bang - next fight, bang - next fight.

My coffee buzz is fading and can barely still shadow box around me living room while fully kitted up.

I've been scanning the comedy central TV guide and I still can't find it.

Dufous entry by Paul....Master Class plonker level

All good on Netflix here. 5g wifi.

12 ounce vs 10 ounce gloves. A bit silly for a heavyweight fight.

Netflix is dropped by half I guess everyone is logging in.

Sadly Tyson is too old, he is not going to get it done late.

Yeah, and what with the glove biting?

The whole thing is a bunch of hype and the so called fight is a joke.

Bit of a damp squib. This is one fight that needed a KO to make it interesting.

Tyson was lucky he did not get knocked out. A 58-year-old man has no place in a boxing ring.

Tyson got paid, Paul got a gazillion viewers. Netflix failed live sports viewing. NFL might want to reconsider.

What does the NFL have to do with a boxing event televised by Netflix?

Tyson started out the first two rounds pretty well, but then he, er, aged out..... It was a pretty lame fight compared to Taylor-Serrano.

At 58, Tyson has an excuse. Jake Paul is just a shit fighter. Very few skills.
Would love to see him in the ring with Usyk, or Ruiz.

Netflix is going to be streaming NFL games. Given how shyte their service performed with this boxing event, NFL might want to revise the T&Cs.

Maybe Willy but its just two Christmas games. The worldwide coverage is what the NFL is looking for. Jake Paul and his production company will have nothing to do with it at all.

Old blokes bashing each other , reeks of On Nut beer garden where many a pissed poster offered to "Sort it out"

'Leave it out he ain't worth it!"

Tyson was obviously paid not to punch the shit out of him and demolish him in one round.

Now that this fucking rigged nonsense is over, can we get back to actual boxing?

imo that ulcer problem must have knocked MT for six.

Lennox Lewis was saying before it happened that he'd seen Tyson training and he was concerned for Paul.


But last night Mike looked every day of his age, right from the walk to the ring onwards.

Shiz happens at our age.

I was a Tyson fan back in the day but even I could see he was just too old and too tired. He wasn’t paid not to hurt him.

I don't think so either.

His pro career ended 20 years ago, gassed out after about five rounds against a journeyman.
