I’m not talking about ability am talking about being an all round bawbag

Side note, I really like the looks of Hamzah Sheeraz. I know it's a little bit of a cheat code so tall and reachy for his weight class but the way he can let off punchs just look so clean, clinically efficient, a very satisfying boxer to watch

 

It's fight week sports fans - coming up Saturday night live from Saudi - Artur Beterbiev vs Dmitry Bivol + Fabio Wardley vs Frazer Clarke 2 on the undercard also features Chris Eubank Jr, Ben Whittaker, Skye Nicolson and Jai Opetaia.

 

I've been looking forward to the main event for what feels like years.

I actually cannot wait, not been this excited about a boxing match for a long long time.

I'm not going to call it because I'm a * pundit, the slick and skillful Bivol vs the Knockout machine Beterbiev.

 

anyone watching the Paul v Tyson fight this weekend?

 

Think it's on at 0300 UK time so will skip the live version lol

 

same here, curious to see how it pans out but not so fussed that I'll stay up til late to watch it live

 

I think it is a bit of a sham but will watch it live, I'm normally up early anyway so isn't disrupting me too much to watch it.
I think the result has been predefined but hope MT knocks jp out

 

definitely a bit of a sham but intriguing none the less

 

Annoyingly yes

 

That fight is pbviously a fixed Hollywood match but I will watch it. Im sure they have scripted a Paul win though.

Dunno man...that logan paul was trash talking tysons dead daughter. He should be * it coz if I were tyson I'd be out to dish out a scheme bootin

 

Jake Paul is pretty much a certainty to win

 

Tyson to win In 2

 

Tyson will batter him.

 

Hope tyson ends that Jake Paul's career after he batters him so hard.

 

Who wants an avatar bet on it? Winner picks a new avatar for the loser and they keep it on for a week

 

The Paul brothers are scamming * so I hope he get's his * kicked in.

Jones vs Miocic will be on at the same time so if I'm staying up I'll be watching that.

 

Jones is tomorrow, Tyson Paul is today

 

The legendary Mike Tyson is about to make a unique return to the ring, facing off against the YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul in a bout that is less than a day away. Boxing fans around the world can be part of this exclusive streaming event, available on Netflix in five languages. The mega-boxing event is set to take place on Friday, November 15, at the prestigious AT&T Stadium.

The fight, which has faced obstacles such as a postponement caused by a medical emergency involving Tyson, is now set to proceed as planned. Sanctioned by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, this match will consist of eight two-minute rounds and will use 14-ounce gloves.

The boxing card will also include seven thrilling fights, including a rematch between the undisputed super lightweight champion Katie Taylor and the unified featherweight champion Amanda Serrano, a highly anticipated bout that promises to be a battle of epic proportions.

With each passing day, excitement for the Paul-Tyson boxing event is at an all-time high. With only 24 hours remaining, here are the final predictions for the fight, which add to the thrill of the event:

Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul predictions
Bermane Stiverne: Mike Tyson
Striverne tells Baccart.net and DAZN writes: "When he fought Roy Jones Jr, he was 54 years old, and he looked good so if that’s the same Mike Tyson for this fight then I don’t think it will last more than six rounds. In the first half of the fight, the younger guy is going to come out to try and impose himself, but I see Mike working his body and dragging him into deep water from early on in the fight. Mike is a lot older, but he still has the ambition to fight and has bad intentions. He still hits the pads hard, looks great on the pads and it’s not like he fighting somebody who is a live opponent. Mike is taking this fight seriously and I don’t see in any way how he loses this fight against Jake Paul.”

Roy Jones Jr.: Mike Tyson
Roy Jones Jr. tells talkSPORTS: "Well, I like Mike, probably by decision, but if he chooses to go out and take him out, I think he can."

Tyson Fury: Mike Tyson
Tyson Fury tells MMA Hour: "If Mike Tyson hits anybody, I don’t care if he’s 90, he’s going to knock them out cold isn’t he? He’s Iron Mike Tyson, the baddest man on the planet. Jake Paul is very experienced now and he's had a lot of fights but obviously, I have to back Mike Tyson for the knockout as he always backs me."

Bleacher Report: It's going to be a circus
Lucky Ngamwajasat writes: "Give credit to Paul, Tyson and MVP Promotions for making me and many other fight fans tune in to this sideshow. And give credit to Paul for finding ways to keep us entertained while stacking the deck in his favor. Whether it was fighting former NBA player Nate Robinson or former UFC champions Tyrone Woodley and Anderson Silva, The Problem Child seemingly has had the advantage in all of these matchups. You want a prediction? Here's mine: It's going to be a circus and I'm going to watch it. I'm not going to take whatever happens seriously and neither should anyone who watches. But it should be fun, it'll get people talking, and I'm sure it will lead to another mega-money fight for Paul down the line, perhaps a rematch."

Sporting News: Jake Paul via TKO
Daniel Yanofsky writes: "If Tyson gets knocked down, which seems likely here, hopefully, he gets back up. The prediction: Paul pulls his punches a bit to give the crowd their money's worth before forcing Tyson down. It will be a circus show either way, but a successful one, allowing Netflix, Paul, and Tyson to pat themselves on the back."
