Nah, Jake Paul getting facefisted is the only reason I'd watch this shit.

But this has shenanigans written all over it, so I'm not gonna give it my attention.

[–] hellfire103@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 hour ago

Ah, bollocks...

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 29 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

I'm not watching it because I'm not a mark

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 1 points 32 minutes ago (1 children)

if Netflix charging extra for the fight?

Glad I canceled my subscription then.

Tbh, Jake has already lost. If he wins, people will say he beat up a 58yo man, former boxer or not. If he loses, he got beat up by a 58yo man.

Like, there's no way he can actually win in the square of public opinion, and I'm here for it.

[–] qaz@lemmy.world 1 points 7 minutes ago

He wins when he gets attention, and he will get that either way

[–] Zorque@lemmy.world 12 points 3 hours ago

Pretty sure he lost in the square of public opinion years ago, now he's just capitalizing on it.

[–] Tylerdurdon@lemmy.world 7 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Most of us are not watching the fight because Netflix is sucking a big tube steak tonight. I haven't seen this much buffering since dial up modems.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 2 points 15 minutes ago

I guess they created a hit event then! And cheaped out on their elastic servers.

[–] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 hour ago

¿Porque no los dos?

[–] henchman2019@lemmy.world 9 points 3 hours ago

I'm not watching it cuz shitass Netflix won't stop buffering.

[–] OsrsNeedsF2P@lemmy.ml 20 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

Even if you're anti-Paul, watching the fight is free press for him. Same as how Trump did it

[–] BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works 1 points 50 minutes ago

You're right, it should have been pre-election and Trump instead of Paul. Now there's a fight I'd pay to watch

[–] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 8 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

Watch a pirated stream and don't talk about it and it's fine really.

George Foreman once described Mike Tyson as a "cross-town bus in boxing trunks".

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 1 points 13 minutes ago

That's a huge compliment coming from the hardest hitting boxer of his time. Foreman was a fucking beast in his era. The only reason Ali beat him is because Ali fought smart, and Foreman was the dope who got roped into it.

[–] NegativeLookBehind@lemmy.world 19 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

I’m here for both of those things. I only wish it was Mike Tyson in his prime so we could really see a total annihilation of this asswipe.

[–] Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 21 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

Paul wouldn't have challenged Tyson in his prime, his professional career is a sham.

Exactly. I want to see him fight the current heavyweight champion.

[–] NegativeLookBehind@lemmy.world 7 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

But wouldn’t you love to see it happen?

[–] Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Who would be the equivalent these days? They should challenge Paul!

[–] rc__buggy@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 hours ago

There is no equivalent to Iron Mike in his prime. GOAT

[–] Death_Equity@lemmy.world 4 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Akimbo Slice in his prime vs Paul would be more glorious.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 1 points 11 minutes ago

That dude legit scared me through the computer screen during his backyard brawling days. It scared me to know people like him existed. Did you see the fight where he burst a dude's eye, and fucking blinded him?

[–] Find_My_Phone@lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz -1 points 52 minutes ago

Surprise to see Jake win, But Mike was good for his age!

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 16 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

Oh we are definitely the same, friend. I want Jake Paul to look like extra pulp orange juice.

[–] hellfire103@lemmy.ca 9 points 4 hours ago

Of course, I made the mistake of posting this exclusively on platforms where I hold the same opinions as everyone else.

[–] Death_Equity@lemmy.world 4 points 3 hours ago

I want Tyson to work over Paul so hard that he talks like Tyson for the rest of his life.

[–] Jumpingspiderman@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

No, I want to see Iron Mike kick his ass too!!

[–] theuniqueone@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

To be fair unfortunately Jake Paul is probably going to win easily given age difference that fact he is a professional fighter even if not elite and Mikes long retirement.

[–] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 hour ago

I knew who the winner was as soon as I saw Mike walking to the ring. I was like "oh, damn"

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 4 points 4 hours ago

What if I'm both? I love Mike Tyson, and can't stand the paul brothers.
