For a lot of people that will have been their first first professional fight they will have seen or seen in ages. Hardly going to encourage them them pay PPV fees to watch ‘real’ matches.
Only saw it on the news. Watching Tyson attempting to shake hands after it was excruciating!! Just left dangling in mid air !! I suppose that is what happens when you pimp yourself for dough
More annoyed with media covering it and giving it precedence in news bulletins today. Especially sports sites. It's not sport, it's not news. It's Reality TV.
Curiosity. To see what Tyson could do. And I've been watching Logan on WWE lately so I wanted to see what Jake was about. I did not watch live or subscribe to Netflix. I went to sleep and watched the replay for free on YouTube the next morning.
I’d like to think that the people “believed” it wasn’t scripted or pre determined and that Tyson would use Paul’s face like a punch bag for 16 minutes.
I was up at 7 as the dog wouldn't stop whining all night so I decided to put it on. (I'm dog sitting) Fortunately I watched the Serrano v Taylor fight first. That was brutal
Have you seen the reply gives when Tyson was asked pre fight by an excited teenager about his legacy? Iron Mike is available for children's parties... that's as near as I went to the whole freakshow. Boxing really can't get much lower, can it?

Oh hang on $$$'s, that was the point.
At best it could only be a sideshow, travelling circus mockery of a fight
Paul by decision was +250
He was fighting a 60 year old man. He was obviously going to build a huge point lead and then stay on defense once the fight was out of reach.
Has it tarnished Tyson’s legendary status?
