    Jake Paul v Mike Tyson. What the hell is going on in the world of boxing. One of these YouTubers is going to get seriously injured one day

    Jake Paul isn't going to get hurt in effectively a sparring match with a 58 year old Mike Tyson.

    Tyson will be getting hurt. He's old and will blow up in minutes. Jake Paul takes this stuff seriously. He's in good shape and knows what he's doing.

    Point I'm making is that Jake and Logan are taking on fighters well passed their prime, Tyson maybe well past it but I imagine he still packs a punch

    Let's hope Mike loses his head and bites Paul's head off

    Lol, he's beaten a few bums. Tyson might lose but it won't be because Jake Paul is a good boxer.

    I hope Tyson chins him within 30 seconds so we don’t have to endure Jake Paul having beaten Tyson on his boxing record.

    He has fought a few bums, as most boxers do in their first few fights. How many fights must he have before people take him as a boxer? He seems to take it pretty serious to me, the training and keeping in boxing condition etc.

    I'm no fan btw either, just think he gets unfair sneering at him trying to be a boxer. I do wish he'd step it up a bit though with his opponents.

    Honestly don’t understand why the boxing profession has let this pantomime epidemic ruin this sport. I get the stupid sums of money but seriously training most of your life for a serious profession like this to then agree to prance about with YouTubers

    Awful. Tyson was shot to pieces 20 years ago. I really hope it doesn’t happen

    It's because in between he does stuff like this, mate. You are correct, newcomers always fight 'nobodies'... But couple this with all the youtuber crap and it ruins it for him.

    What? The Paul brothers make more cash than most world champions do. As do others like Tommy Fury and KSI. These guys are A* at self promotion and they reap the rewards. Thus it brings our a lot of jealousy from Boxers past and present who didn't make anywhere like as much money.

    What you said is like saying why have lower leagues in Football. Sport is for everyone at any level.

    The same as any other boxer - several fights against credible opponents.

    That's an awful analogy, it's nothing like that. It's like some reality TV stars playing 5 a side against some old, out of shape/crap footballers but charging the same as to watch Man City and pretending they're mint.

    That's fair. I did say he needs to step up re opponents.

    With the money being touted, I think it'll be more like wrestling, as in already written as what happens. Exhibition. Tyson gets a huge payday, youtuber gets to say he beat Tyson, Silva, Woodley etc.

    Edit - though I hope its genuine. Would love to see Tyson absolutely smash it.
