I feel like half of watching boxing is just listening to the announcers screaming so that they can trick you into thinking it’s exciting. Anyways, anyone watching Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul? - ThreadSky

Anyways, anyone watching Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul?

bradpuet.bsky.social•108 days ago

Yup. I wish the lead announcer would dial back to like 0.1.

bradpuet.bsky.social•108 days ago

Actually I take it back. I just want him to shut up.

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

Lollll

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

lol 🎯

jessealbert.bsky.social•108 days ago

Yup

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

Lolll for real.

oldwhitelady.bsky.social•108 days ago

This might the most OldWhiteLady-ish thing ever, but I'm waiting to watch the whole limited series on Netflix. LOL.

niborobin.bsky.social•108 days ago

I abhor boxing. Don't like it on TV shows, movies, or in reality.

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

Rocky is a fantastic movie. Thats about where im at with it.

niborobin.bsky.social•108 days ago

Never watched it.

stevie-z.bsky.social•108 days ago

Thanks for the add! & yes, I'm watching. https://bsky.app/profile/stevie-z.bsky.social/post/3lazvxo6elk24

xromo.bsky.social•108 days ago

Watching the fight, have to say that Mexican match was my favorite so far.

kumquat123ass.bsky.social•108 days ago

My sister is and she is texting me about it. She said almost the same thing about the announcers.

0keeler.bsky.social•108 days ago

I forgot to

iusedtobakecakes.bsky.social•108 days ago

With all this buffering, I don’t think anyone is watching…sheesh!

kbrey.bsky.social•108 days ago

Had zero interest until…Rosie Perez.

sleestack66.bsky.social•108 days ago

Trying to watch it but Netflix is making it very difficult.

truebluearms.bsky.social•108 days ago

Oh yeah, the first match was a stinker, the second was exciting. Can't wait to watch Tyson beat the hell out of Paul

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

🎯

goldentrouble.bsky.social•108 days ago

I’m routing for the old guy 😉

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

Yup

red-roverr.bsky.social•108 days ago

Yeah, I keep looking up from my phone cuz they're losing it, and it's still boring 😅😂 waiting patiently-ish on the main card.

rend1.bsky.social•108 days ago

Would like to see Tyson win but not paying for it lol

kimcavaca.bsky.social•108 days ago

It's free on Netflix

toxteth1.bsky.social•108 days ago

You know that's like asking if anyone's watching the Panthers-Jets game...

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

So no?

toxteth1.bsky.social•108 days ago

Hard to believe that boxing needed Howard Cosell and Muhammad Ali to make it appealing...

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

Classic 💙

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

As anticlimactic as dating a MAGA man.

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

Jake Paul just said “It’s the era of truth, it’s the era of good, there’s a shift in the world, and good is rising. The truth is rising….it feels like we’re back,baby”.

I hope we all remind him of these words 6 months from now.

hunkerdowns.club•108 days ago

... I picked the worst year to come out of torpor

foxford.bsky.social•108 days ago

Jake Paul would’ve lost his jaw if Tyson was 27

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

How embarrassing for Mike Tyson to go out like that

todd76.bsky.social•108 days ago

Yeah no, Jake. Thanks for playing.

helendriscoll.bsky.social•108 days ago

Not a great fight and that coda was equally sad.

lucyferloo.bsky.social•108 days ago

Pretty gross.

jeromecylin.bsky.social•108 days ago

"We're not killing the planet, lgbtq+ people are bad, churches do not harbor weekly pedophile arrests, banning books protects children!" - Jake Paul's people.

dorothyfshaw.bsky.social•108 days ago

Yeah. Gross.

waynencullen.bsky.social•108 days ago

🤣🤣🤣

chinidadian.bsky.social•108 days ago

LMAO

paranoidfactoid2.bsky.social•108 days ago

Not for him. He's just finally lost his virginity at 40!

roncrawford.bsky.social•108 days ago

lol 😂

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

Not gonna lie, the women did it better.

joyfuloldwarrior.bsky.social•108 days ago

Absolutely!
💙👸💙

dontomassino.bsky.social•108 days ago

Agreed

dawnyriver.bsky.social•108 days ago

Yes they did

elvisbobrasputin.bsky.social•108 days ago

I'll grant the s***show draw fight props just to get people to watch two excellent fights beforehand. Especially the women.

baycrab3.bsky.social•108 days ago

Not even close!!

charlietheislander.bsky.social•108 days ago

Yep

fiftysomething.bsky.social•108 days ago

WAY better.

chipworker.bsky.social•108 days ago

I'm beginning to think Jake Paul has a bet on Tyson.

garryinmaine.bsky.social•108 days ago

I think he realized how disgusting it was for a 27 yr to be fighting a 58 yr old man

sosofiefatale.bsky.social•108 days ago

So much.

feuerconsideration.bsky.social•108 days ago

The Serrano fight was so action packed. Those women are tough as hell!

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

Regardless if you are into boxing - we are truly witnessing history being made for Womens boxing tonight. #SerranoTaylor 🥊🥊

antwoman2.bsky.social•108 days ago

Jake's slow ride in took longer than all the matches. Good song choice though! #intheairtonight

nicki2377.bsky.social•108 days ago

Yes, I’m hoping to see a insufferable influencer destroyed by a member of AARP

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

Lollll

nicki2377.bsky.social•108 days ago

*an insufferable influence that typo is driving me nuts lol

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

I’ll let it slide this time 🥰😆

nicki2377.bsky.social•108 days ago

Thanks, I’ll blame the margaritas lol

isaynee.bsky.social•108 days ago

I would like the 23 year old Tyson slapping the living crap out of Paul. But it is what it will be. Watching.

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

Same

hrd1.bsky.social•108 days ago

Give me Rocky and Apollo anyday then these two.

jeffanddonkeys.bsky.social•108 days ago

bradders1967.bsky.social•108 days ago

Just realised it was on tonight 🙄🙄. Have so will give it a go 👍👍

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

Free on Netflix

jendoesntcare.bsky.social•108 days ago

When they said “he could be something if he got into shape!” 😂😂

aerinea.bsky.social•108 days ago

Yes, but it's a hate watch because I hate Jake Paul

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

I’m not a fan either.

elvisbobrasputin.bsky.social•108 days ago

Yes, and annoyed that Rosie Perez knows way more about boxing than at least one of the announcers, she doesn't speak often, but when she does they both ignore her or reply with something completely unrelated.

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

I just noticed that too

huskyrock.bsky.social•108 days ago

I thought about it but nah.. Smackdown is pretty good and then Rampage looks to be pretty good tonight too.

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

I haven’t watched smackdown in years, but I used to back when it was on Thursdays…if that tells you how long ago.

baycrab3.bsky.social•108 days ago

Watching. Pulling for Tyson. 🤷🏻‍♀️

cheapknockoff.bsky.social•108 days ago

I watched the entire thing with the sound off.

mrsparker47.bsky.social•108 days ago

My 84 yr old mom loves boxing, but doesn't do Netflix. Otherwise, I'm sure she would be watching 😂

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

No Netflix even just for boxing?

mrsparker47.bsky.social•108 days ago

Lol! She'll catch fights on ESPN or other channels. She cracks me up!

talrazmob.bsky.social•108 days ago

I'm just trying to see Tyson drop Paul like a bad habit right quick, maybe some of the shit talking after, then keep it moving

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

Same

dalemccune.bsky.social•108 days ago

Yep! Hoping Iron Mike knocks Paul on his ass

kikibella.bsky.social•108 days ago

No, I’ve never liked boxing or wrestling. Too violent and yet, I love football 🙃

garryinmaine.bsky.social•108 days ago

Yes. I don’t have Netflix but someone gave me a link to watch it. Cheering for Katie Taylor and Iron Mike.

carrieb1025.bsky.social•108 days ago

I missed the under card but heard those ladies were brawling..

purple15.bsky.social•108 days ago

Nope

ottaknownow.bsky.social•108 days ago

Has Netflix quit buffering? First match I couldn’t take it any longer and switched to Alex Wagner Tonight. Yep, exciting night around here😂

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

Netflix on my end has been fine so I’m guessing they figured it out?

ottaknownow.bsky.social•108 days ago

Thanks Karly, appreciate that update.

chefcraig-77.bsky.social•108 days ago

I’m In !

birdiejanes.bsky.social•108 days ago

I’m watching. Boxing is not my thing but watching the Paul brothers lose is. 🤭

gamamus.bsky.social•108 days ago

Hope to god Tyson wins

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

Same

teawhilewriting.bsky.social•108 days ago

I skipped it but I prefer MMA these days. Boxing now is mostly publicity stunts

dibbzondubbz.bsky.social•108 days ago

Yep. Hoping it's legit, cause Mike would give him a nice reality check.

libertydancer1.bsky.social•108 days ago

🖐🏽Me!

friday5pm.bsky.social•108 days ago

Nope.

johnnasximento.bsky.social•108 days ago

No…

sheilaayrom.bsky.social•108 days ago

Yes, I’m enjoying the fights.

melyssaj.bsky.social•108 days ago

Girl, I'm hollering!

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

😆🥰

siameselover3.bsky.social•108 days ago

Maybe? I really want Mike Tyson win. I mean, neither of them are really good people. 58 he looks in really great shape.

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

He does - and I think he just got sober so I’m wondering if that’s helped him out.

vixeywitchey.bsky.social•108 days ago

No I’m not. What round are they in?

juneanderson.bsky.social•108 days ago

I grew up watching boxing every week. Ali was my first crush. PPV ruined it. It's nice to be able to see these matches.

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

I’ve heard a lot of people say that

doctorwhen.bsky.social•108 days ago

Well, I’m trying to. Netflix is having buffering issues worldwide so almost nobody, apparently, can watch this fucking thing.

chipworker.bsky.social•108 days ago

I thought it couldn't get any worse after "we put the real in surreal", but apparently it could.

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

lol

aletheia225.bsky.social•108 days ago

Just like politics. 🤪

I'm with others watching and I'm just posting and glancing. Haha

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

lol. I turned Netflix on for the first time in months and it popped up the same time I saw an article saying Jake Paul’s mom wants to kill Mike Tyson so meh…it’s good background while I finish some work.

aletheia225.bsky.social•108 days ago

😆
I get it. Completely.

kimcavaca.bsky.social•108 days ago

Has the main event started yet? Watching The Old Man in the meantime.

karlykingsley.bsky.social•108 days ago

Not yet

kimcavaca.bsky.social•108 days ago

Thanks! 🙏🏼
