I just tried streaming 2 shows in Netflix and they are coming thru like it's 1997.
Go to Max or Hulu and it's crystal clear.

Damn Netflix is struggling. They clearly landed on a winning ticket- arrogant famous dbag vs washed up legend.

Yeah Paul is just coasting. I don't think he wants to embarrass Mike to be honest. Mike is gassed.

Tysons only chance was first couple of rounds, he got gassed as it went on. Overhand right and hooks were there. 5 years ago he could have done it.

Well……not much to say about it. Tyson looked like a 68 y/o man. And Paul hasn’t got anything to brag about.

Seems mike was told to bite his glove instead of punch the punk after three rounds. Not impressed by either, damn sure not saying Paul won that fight outright.

Netflix was not ready for that bandwidth. I am 64 so I remember when you got to see major fights and boxers on TV like the first Ali V Frazier fight. Then they started PPV and a network like ABC Wide World of Sports would show the fight a few weeks later. So you still got to see the fight. Then they went straight PPV and you got to see nothing unless you paid. I never saw an actual Mike Tyson fight because I did not have that type of money at the time, especially to see 90 second fights. They squeezed every dollar they could out of it and killed it by not letting everyone see those fights.



Imagine if it was like now with these streaming services and the Internet and gigabyte connections. Boxing may not be as dead as it is now. Younger people would have seen every Ali and Tyson fight and the boxers would have made great money.



That thing last night was not a fight like I remember them. It's sad.

I didn't make it last night, watching it now. Tyson took a dive.
It wasn’t a dive. Paul ran from him until Tyson lost his legs. After that it was just hit and run. The only way Tyson won that fight was if they stood toe to toe and traded punches.

It definitely wasn't a dive, and if anything Paul intentionally allowed Tyson to stay upright. I say that as someone who was hoping Tyson would have knocked him out.

I think Paul could have ended it any time after round 3 really, but he'd rather have a decision and seem magnanimous that KO a 58 year old legend. Nobody wants to see that.

I don't know **** about the Paul's outside of watching a few highlights of Jake boxing.

But if he did in fact allow Tyson to bow out without getting knocked out, that seems pretty damn decent to me.

I think he was also being careful. Tyson still probably has the power to end it in one punch, but didn’t have the feet to land that punch without Paul screwing up. No reason to be risky and get knocked the 17’out
