The cynic in me thinks this was staged to prime a rematch.. a money grab all round.

Lol Tyson fought against an influencer? Idk what's going on in the world I guess. Did I miss historical content and have to search about it?

[–] StarshotJohn@lemmy.world 6 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

No, don't waste your time

[–] Samsy@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 hour ago

Thx

Mike should only fight against people he already beat, like his ex wife.

[–] simple@lemm.ee 24 points 7 hours ago

Dude's almost 60 years old. I really don't understand the hype of watching someone fight a retired athlete.

[–] OhStopYellingAtMe@lemmy.world 59 points 9 hours ago

There were no “good guys” in that fight - as both guys are shitty people, but of course the worse guy won. That’s how this year is going. See also: the US elections.

Oh wow no way what a surprise I wonder if Paul's agent has a chunk missing from his bank account and I wonder if that same amount of money appeared in Tyson's agent's bank damn wow how crazy who could've seen this coming?

Honestly tho, if you paid to watch a convicted rapist, and somebody credibly accused of sexual assault fight you're kinda weird as fuck

[–] jeffw@lemmy.world 4 points 5 hours ago

It wasn’t actually pay per view, just sayin

Also, the payday was about 20 mil for Tyson iirc

Why did that shitty influencer beat up the crazy guy from The Hangover?

[–] jeffw@lemmy.world 13 points 5 hours ago

Tens of millions of dollars for each of them, that’s why

Imagine inviting a bunch of people to watch you beat up on someone’s ~~dad~~ grandad, charging people for it, then having the audacity to be proud of it. People got a little dumber yesterday.

I'm guessing by the meme influx, Tyson got clobbered?

[–] Cignul9@lemmy.world 40 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

No, it went full time and Tyson lost via decision. But it was just the fact that he was old. You could tell watching that if he were 10 years younger he’d have clobbered Paul.

A lot of people (including me) were hoping for the clobbering, but alas…

[–] zigmus64@lemmy.world 31 points 8 hours ago

Yeah, Paul was bouncing around like an idiot. Tyson didn’t have his legs and kept fucking around with his mouthpiece.

The whole fight looked like a kid who took a couple boxing lessons at the local fight gym challenged someone’s grandpa who used to fight.

[–] dan1101@lemm.ee 8 points 7 hours ago

Yeah one thing older people lack is stamina. I figured if Tyson didn't take him out quickly he wasn't going to win.
