The Boxing thread

Thats why im partly looking forward to the paul tyson fight just to see that moment of realisation on pauls face where he looks across the ring and realises thats mike fucking tyson
I just hope that it’s not an agreed tippy tappy pretend fight just for clicks and Paul says just the wrong thing and Tyson loses it and batters him

Tyson was in big decline at 30, he ended up begging after Lennox beat him and was spent after dominating Danny for two rounds and then took a beating before giving up against Kevin. He had lost it completely 20 years ago, and the youtuber has a good chance.

Mike Tyson still has that roll of his eyes like a shark, That blank look and the next thing they have to sedate him and put him in a straightjacket.
 
Ultimately you can only fight who's willing and able to take the fights on in the same era, if he becomes undisputed he's every much the Legend that Lewis is as far as boxing records go.

He's not a patch on Lewis and will never be regarded the same. Lewis was always active and wanted to fight the best.

On the other hand. 6 title fights and 3 of those to a one dimensional Wilder. One to a bloke he'd comprehensively beaten twice already in Chisora and at the time of the 3rd fight had lost 12 times previously. Only one mandatory defence in his career to Whyte and its been FOUR years since he claimed that WBC belt. Embarrassed by an MMA fighter in his first fight in Ngannou that a lot of people thought he'd lost to. Never defended the WBA, WBO, IBF belts. Drugs ban.

The cv's don't stack up one bit. This fights only taking place as enough moneys been thrown his way that his treasured undefeated record pales into insignificance. Bricktop would probably be trying to sell us Fury-Chisora 4 otherwise.

Not a fan then.

History has this certain magic that we realise how good they were when they are finished, we have always hated successful sportsmen in this country when they at the top of their game, it's weird. (Lennox Lewis, Hamilton etc)

My point was, in 20 years the history books will say he beat whoever was available to fight at the time...

Modern day boxing is nothing like 20/30 years ago where fights happened whether they liked it or not, the modern boxing World is just about money unfortunately.
