Personally, I think Tyson is taking a dive for about 10 million.

Going with Paul. Right or wrong I'll always bet on a wrestler to win.

His older brother was a good wrestler, but there's no evidence Jake ever wrestled.  At least no evidence he ever made it to state.

Joe Rogan said Tyson has zero incentive to win, he actually makes nothing if he knocks him out of the first round which would be the most likely result if the incentives were backwards.

Mike Tyson catches him with an actual shot and he may never wake up. Yes Tyson is 58. He also looks like his hands could still break through a brick wall.
As long as we are keeping score, I've got something to prove

Paul was dominate and Tyson lucky he pulled punches and they had 14 oz gloves.

Definitely looked like 8 rounds of sparring to me

Tyson made about $20M.  I am not a Jake Paul fan, but I do respect the fact that he could have knocked Tyson's block off after the 2nd round and chose to respect the old man.

Agreed

Tyson could have knocked him out at any moment. He too was pulling back his punches. Paul is better than I thought he'd be.

It's rumored that Tyson wouldn't have gotten paid if he knocked Paul out early.

The fight went exactly as expected. Two guys protecting themselves and their purse.

Anyone who thinks Tyson actually wins that fight if they went after it legitimately is crazy, though. He is in great shape for 58, but 58 still matters.
thats the bottom line
On Wisconsin!

If you watched any of Tyson's sparring sessions he could go two rounds.  Legitimate fight I would say Tyson early too.  This was not a real boxing match.  Tyson had $20M to gain, while Paul will have other fights after the win.
