I’m here for both of those things. I only wish it was Mike Tyson in his prime so we could really see a total annihilation of this asswipe.

Paul wouldn't have challenged Tyson in his prime, his professional career is a sham.

But wouldn’t you love to see it happen?

Who would be the equivalent these days? They should challenge Paul!

There is no equivalent to Iron Mike in his prime. GOAT

They do all the time, he's not gonna take any fight where he can lose, especially if money isn't the number one motivator. The fact that this isn't common sense is worrying.

Exactly. I want to see him fight the current heavyweight champion.

Akimbo Slice in his prime vs Paul would be more glorious.

That dude legit scared me through the computer screen during his backyard brawling days. It scared me to know people like him existed. Did you see the fight where he burst a dude's eye, and fucking blinded him?

What's even scarier is that he got absolutely rolled when it came to pros.

You're not wrong, dude was champ in the non pro arena, and as soon as he stepped in it was just as shocking with different winners.

Absolutely! I remember going from "holy shit this guy is terrifying and we have video evidence of him being able to kick ass" to "what the fuck? These not-as-terrifying looking people are messing him up bad!"

It's all scripted so it would turn out however they wrote it. Boxing is scripted and every altercation and weigh in fight/drama in boxing and UFC/MMA is set up and fake

Yup, I had the same thought. The slap was just to generate hype. The fight was pretty tame. This was just a money making event.
