Just announced yesterday. Tyson looks incredible for 57 yrs old. Has lost little speed or power over the years. Go to YT and check out his sparring.

Iam going Tyson on the knockout for this one !!!!

    I'd like to see Tyson beat Paul - but at 57 I wouldn't bet on it.

    Tyson will resort to vocal taunts and threats... you know, like chewing his opponent's ear off.

    In all likelihood, there's an under-the-table contract that stipulates Tyson is not to hurt him and to carry him to a draw.

        Exactly,boxing is a skills sports first and foremost. Bhop beat far better opposition in Paul's age range at 50.

    I never heard of Jake Paul until yesterday when it was mentioned in a Reddit post. Tyson will be 58 when the fight takes place. If it goes 15 rounds, unless Mike does the rope a dope like Ali. I don't think he will last. Remember Sugar Ray Leonard came out of retirement to defeat an aging Marvelous Marvin Hagler.

    Sounds like Iron Mike needs more money. No matter how it ends Vegas and the Sports betting world are going to clean up on the fight. Especially if there is a draw with re-matches to follow.

    Tyson may still have much of his speed and power, but nobody at that age is going to be much good after a round or two.

    If it's an exhibition bout with only a few short rounds...maybe.

    Tyson has also said in interviews that after training, he sometimes has to rest for several days. At 57, you just don't have the same body, no matter what you do.

    I hope he doesn't get hurt. I don't know the other guy.

      Paul is younger and slower than Tyson. If Paul goes toe to toe the first two rounds he will probably lose. But yea I see Tyson losing by just getting tired a few rounds in. Or knocking Paul out in the first minute.

      I probably won't pay attention until after the fight though. Whatch what ever clip ends up on YouTube.

      Seeing Tyson training versus Paul . Tyson probably has to train to conserve energy and remember how old he is. But his joe rogan interview a few years ago. He admitted when he starts hitting the bag his 20 year old ego takes over

    Mike Looks good in training but stepping in the ring with a boxer that's younger and more active might be a bad move

      Tyson looks like he has just as much if not more muscle as when he was and the explosive speed.

      I guess Paul is going to be allowed to use performance enhancers gets too wear head gear during the fight and tag in his brother jake so Tyson can fight them both during the fight.

      Sports entertainment at a new level of silly. I see jake getting knocked out in one flurry from Tyson.

      My only question is are they going to consult with the wwe for a good script to plan the fight.
