Lots of PPV money plunked down for something that probably won't be that entertaining.

I thought it was going to be Live on Netflix and not PPV...but I could be mistaken.

Money grab. Plain and simple. It will be a glorified sparring match. 

Mike Tyson would literally kill Jake Paul in a real boxing match.

Maybe so.   I didn't really pay close attention to details because I won't be watching no matter what.

This was my initial thought along with the Roy Jones Jr./Iron Mike exhibition was unfulfilling.

I was looking for info about this and Google had this to say about it:

Who would win Jake Paul or Mike Tyson?

While sports betting odds aren't available from licensed sportsbooks, some offshore sportsbooks have posted odds for the fight. Bovada, one such unregulated, offshore sportsbook, has Paul as a -225 favorite, with Tyson a +170 underdog.

In his prime yes, at 58, idk. Physiologically speaking, Paul is literally at his prime. Tysons prime was every bit of 20 years ago, almost 30.  I'd LOVE to see Tyson knock his top off but my guess is Paul tries to ware down Tyson by dancing around for several rounds.

And if anyone thinks Tyson at age 27 would lose to Paul at age 27 you are in fact an idiot and there's no help for you.

Anyone see the rules to this "fight"?  

1. Jake will wear headgear.  Tyson won't.

2. Tyson will have to weigh 165 or below.  Jake won't 

3. Tyson will have to pass a drug test.  Jake won't

4. Jake can "tag" his brother and get subbed out.  

No thanks for me.  If rules were even, I might tune in to watch a rusted Iron Mike , but not under these rules.

Tyson weigh 165 or less? Are they fighting at a nursing home?
