    If anyone actually watched the whole thing, Tyson came out hot and Paul had a moment of fear. Then old man got hit a few times and looked like he was about to wobble to the ground.

    I thought it was gonna be fake and scripted. And most of it was. But, the actual fight? Mike came out hot and it was pretty clear Paul could have taken him out a number of times but didn’t. He didn’t want to hurt him.

    Look, I don’t like Jake Paul or Mike Tyson. But, it was a media event. It wasn’t “rigged”

      I think Tyson had the power in his arms to do some damage but he just did not have the speed to get in at all after 2 rounds. And he’d leave himself open if he tried.

      You could gamble on it, which means there was money to be made courting suckers.

      I’m sure the lion’s share of “rigged” proclamations were coming from folks who got baited into bad bets.
