Two of the most legendary names in boxing are going to take it to the ring in the Spring. CSI SPORTS/FIGHT SPORTS asked Mike Tyson, 59, and Floyd Mayweather, 48, if they wanted to box each other, and they said yes.
“This fight is something neither the world nor I ever thought would or could happen,” Tyson said. “However, boxing has entered a new era of the unpredictable—and this fight is as unpredictable as it gets. I still can’t believe Floyd wants to really do this. It’s going to be detrimental to his health, but he wants to do it, so it’s signed and it’s happening!”
“I’ve been doing this for 30 years and there hasn’t been a single fighter that can tarnish my legacy,” said Mayweather. “You already know that if I am going to do something, it’s going to be big and it’s going to be legendary. I’m the best in the business of boxing. This exhibition will give the fans what they want.”
The planning for the sporting event of the year is in the beginning stages, so a date, a location, and where it will be broadcast/streamed has not been determined. But one thing that has been determined is that people will be tuning in for one of the biggest boxing matches of all time.
Take that Tyson vs Logan Paul fight. I just hope this one doesn’t feel as staged as that fight did.
Yesterday, was the big fight between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul, and there was only one winner.
After hours of buffering and filler, it was time for the 8-round fight of the year.
The 58-year-old boxer took on the 27-year-old jerk, and he made it all the way to the end. But there could only be one winner, and it was Paul who threw more punches.
However, I think Tyson scored the KO because he didn’t let a brat half his age knock him out.
Chevy Chase and Mike Tyson were seen looking lovingly towards each other in White Plains, NY, over the weekend, so do they have something to tell us? Like are they ready for some Saturday night live action?
A little birdie, aka a pigeon, told me they are not. They are just two men who appreciate each other’s careers.
Too bad there is not more to their love affair because Checy Tyson sounds like a cool car.
Mike Tyson and Jake Paul were supposed to fight live next month on Netflix.
However, Tyson suffered a medical emergency on a flight last month, and the fight had to be postponed. Today, Netflix announced the new date.
“Although we had to postpone the fight, I will resume training shortly. I am thankful to the medical staff that treated me and to MVP, Netflix, and AT&T Stadium for working diligently to find the best rescheduled date for all parties,” said Tyson. “While we have a new date, the result will be the same no matter when we fight. Jake Paul is getting knocked out. On Friday, November 15, watch this in-person at AT&T Stadium or live on Netflix.”
So mark your calendars because you don’t want to miss Tyson knock out Paul in seconds.
If you want to see the fight in person, you can still get tickets here.
Mike Tyson and Jake Paul were supposed to fight each other in July on Netflix. However, today, the streaming service announced that the fight has been postponed.
Earlier this week, Tyson suffered a medical emergency on a flight to Los Angeles. His people said he was OK, but I guess he is not.
“Unfortunately Jake Paul and Mike Tyson will not face-off on July 20 as planned. Tyson’s recent ulcer flare up has limited his ability to train fully for the next few weeks.
“The fight will be rescheduled for a date later this year after Mike’s able to resume training with no limitations and both fighters can have equal time to prepare for this once-in-a-lifetime matchup!”
