Idk, this fight kinda makes me sad. Tyson should be playing with his grand kids at some retirement community in south Florida. Jake Paul can get fucked, he's obviously playing to Tyson's ego.

I see it as a sort of "I'm so rich I get to fight a living legend" instead of an actual contest. This is a sham.

Tbh goes both ways. Tyson also does whatever shit that gets him money.

Tbh goes both ways

Lol, i thought you were about to say Tyson was also about to fight a living legend 🤣

Mike Tyson mysteries?

(RIP Norm Mcdonald)

This. He prolly knows he’ll get his ass put through a meat grinder, but it’s worth it (to him) for the clicks. Everyone paying idiot amounts of money to see this happen? Both Paul and Tyson get a cut.

[–] Maalus@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Not just "thinks", he is counting on it. Weaponising the hate people have for him. He gets his shit kicked in and it'll go viral.

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 days ago

Yeah I suspect all his training has been just so he doesn’t die or go full vegetable after the knockout.

[–] SpruceBringsteen@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

Our own Caligula.

Why did everyone forgive Tyson for being a rapist and abuser?

[–] shinratdr@lemmy.ca 24 points 3 days ago

They just made a convicted rapist and abuser president. People don’t care about women.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 7 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

He did serve his time, but yeah. Always a bit weird. Especially when you've got some real contemptible quotes from him like in this article:

https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/boxing/mike-tyson-jake-paul-boxing-rape-netflix-b2645133.html

If he was remorseful or even just didn't want to talk about it it'd be one thing, but he isn't.

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 days ago

I still haven’t forgiven him for the ear biting.

[–] jawa21@lemmy.sdf.org 12 points 3 days ago

Eh, Tyson is also likely doing this to promo Bunny-Man.

[–] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

Probably got debt to pay off
