Tyson boasted a fuck ton shit about how in shape and great he still is. Obviously he hyped himself up just to sell his show for money.

Guys, it's totally ok to say "I give Tyson the exception".
I mean shit he is in great shape.

...for a 60 year old.

That's just not gonna cut it though.

I feel like there has to be some sort of direct correlation between "people who thought a 60 year old retired boxer with health problems that hasn't had an actual professional fight in like 20 years beating the piss out of an athletic 27 year old with boxing experience and legitimate boxing trainers" and "Donald Trump gets re-elected."
Tyson fought Roy Jones Jr like 4 years ago. I think you guys are arguing a point that barely exists. I'm personally not upset an old man didn't fight like he isn't in his prime.

In an exhibition fight. It's ok man, just admit you got conned by the Nigerian prince and learn how people hype up projects next time so you don't get swindled again.

Also, your posts in this topic very much disagree with you saying you are not personally upset.

No need to attack me just because you said something you were wrong about. What next, are you gonna accuse me of being something pro-Trump?

Oh no, a consenting adult decided to make 20 million dollars for 16 minutes of work? How dare he!

Mike Tyson will ALWAYS be Mike Tyson. Hell, this just adds to the incredible story that is his life.

-divorced for being a domestic abuser
-convicted rapist
-bit off a dude's ear

But losing a fight when he was 58 years old is "tarnishing" his reputation? lmao

Didn't watch it myself, but heard that it looked more like a sparring match against a trainer than an actual fight. And that Tyson only averaged throwing about 3 punches per round.

The ball is round, the game lasts 90 minutes. That's fact.

Yes it was pretty shit and embarrassing regardless of Tyson's age but hey it's the people's fault they got bamboozled. You were one of the smart ones to not watch it.

I think his legacy should be a little more marred by being a wife beating rapist cannibal, TBQH.
This. The irony is you have to condone those things first to be angry that people are condoning anything he did this week.

The guys who tuned in just to the main event we're suckers. The were two really good fights before that.

Any Paul vs Tyson wasn't even the worst fight of the night.

I really don't understand people expecting a 58 year old to beat a 27 year old. Why would this affect his legacy? If Michael Jordan were to come out of retirement and play like horse shit, how would that affect his legacy? I saw a comment on FB saying because of this loss, he could no longer call Tyson the GOAT. Like wtf?!

Except Tyson was never the GOAT because he got beat by all of his contemporaries And Buster Douglas!

Lennox>Evander>Tyson

You're completely right. Unless you're the kind of person who cares about how he tainted the sport of boxing.

I think boxing is considerably more tainted by how it's allowed people like Tyson and Mayweather present themselves as not only respectable, but revered

Everyone blamed it on him being old. I dunno.... this was taken not long before the fight, so clearly something happened between then and now. Could have been him being injured, or the other route of being paid off, but either way he wasn't fighting seriously.

Nah. He was just fucking tired as shit. He did well in the first two rounds. It was just everything after that he couldn't keep up.

And that may be true. I'm not discounting that. But if we look at the training videos he was still moving a lot faster. Had he been capable of doing it, he probably could have ended it in the first round.

Doesnt matter how good your training is or how athletic you are, getting old is going to destroy your conditioning.
