OT: Mike Tyson

[Golson5]

Ok, I can post reasonably with you most of the time...but you are off your rocker on this one.

It was minimally a just in time, fait accompli staging...as Jake clearly pulled off, respecting Mike, so that both of them could laugh their way to the bank. I wouldn't at all be surprised if they explicitly through their managers agreed on how this would be fought.

It would take Jesus Christ to reveal something else. Can you get him to tell us the truth?

The only thing that happened was Jake didn't want to hurt mike and he stopped going after him after round 3 where he hurt him multiple times. After he saw Mike had no legs at all, he did the respectful thing and carried him through 8

Saying it was staged is totally different.

It was staged, per what I wrote...something you just tacitly acknowledged.



Just in time staging minimally...something made fait accompli simply because Jake knew way in advance Mike is old. Easy pay day for both. Sucking in the circus and mob.

If that is what you are saying, then a lot of boxing is staged and has been for years.

Larry Holmes Ali was staged because Larry loved Muhammad and could have easily knocked him out early. He carried him until they threw in the towel. Didn't want to hurt him too bad

We can agree to disagree on this. Most matches are competitively pursued. Although I acknowledge there have been some fixes, egregious or by judges.

This is an entirely different context.

That would have been cool if the thing went off the rails, and old boy got a little too rough with Tyson, seemingly as part of the ruse, and Tyson kind of lost it a little bit, his pride was hurt, he was confused, he thought maybe he'd been set up. And then just went off on little teenybopper influencer, and knocked him out with the one of the most spectacular and crushing KOs in his long, long list of them. And they had to cart him off to an ambulance or whatever.

And he's like standing over him and taunting him, "You couldn't survive in my world, bitch!" And it's just like old times for Iron Mike.

I thought (and hoped) Tyson would kick the crap out of Jake Paul. Boy was I dead wrong. Iron Mike looked old and out of shape. It was hard to watch. I sure hope Iron Mike is finished.

Yeah it's extremely easy

But the point went way over your head

If you are going to stage something and it was rigged, they would have rigged it to be a fun exciting fight. There would be drama and action. And they wouldn't have told Mike to look absolutely horrible.

Just think about what you are saying. You are trying to say they rigged a fight, to be absolutely horrible to watch for the fans

No lol

Professional Boxing has been corrupt for decades. On many levels. Too much money involved not to be.

I though Friday night was orchestrated and pre planned from the get go.

Yes I watched a lot of his training for the fight. He looks old and slow. He moves at a decent speed in very short bursts. But he can't sustain it

How do you know that he can’t sustain it ?

Were you in his training camp or are you just taking an uneducated guess
