This wasn’t a good idea. Congrats on the tens of millions each, but this is not pleasant for anyone to watch. It’s also silly to sell this as a real fight when Paul could have knocked Tyson out of the ring in round 2.

I feel like Ali Holmes was worse because Ali was “only” 38 and clearly had the onset of some cognitive issue happening.

I had to deal with my dad being all upset just now because he thought Tyson was somehow going to time travel to 1988. Probably something there where he saw someone 10 years younger, and in incredible shape aesthetically, look like a stumbling old man.

I really don’t agree with preventing people from doing what they want to do, but if you put someone like Tyson in the ring with someone who wouldn’t have mercy on him, viewers would have seen a 58-year-old man get destroyed in an unforgettable way.

In the coming days, rewatch the fight. Tyson's body wasn't under his control. He was having a very hard time firing off basic punches, much less power punches. He also has major balance issues and is slurring worse than ever. Might not have parkinsons, but he's starting to look Punchy

Yeah the balance was obvious but is that not normal for most people near 60 years old? Maybe it’s not and I’m just used to seeing abnormal decline of the elders in my family.

No, it's not. Let me direct you again to some more homework, if your interested. Watch Tyson in training on the pads. He throws hard, but in small spurts, and he tends to lean oddly after throwing. A lot of the shots that Jake hit, especially in the later rounds, were more of a stiff push than a punch, and Tyson was all over the ring. Watch Tyson against Roy Jones a few years back, and you can see the obvious decline.
