[BOXING] Logan Paul vs Mike Tyson

[DoublerHunter]

I really don't think this fight is going to happen.  Logan isn't acting like a guy who is about to get in the ring with Mike Tyson.  He's been partying like crazy and you can tell just from watching his podcast that his body is not being kept in fighting shape.  He looks like he's already lost 20lbs of muscle and I think he's been drunk since the Mayweather fight.  If he doesn't get himself into training camp soon or cancel this fight he's going to get murdered in the ring by Tyson.

I think it's all up to Logan Paul if he would going to push through his exhibition bout with Mike Tyson knowing that he knows that his recent activities will give a bad effect on his body. Even let's say that this is just an exhibition bout, a fighter need to prepare his body, strength and weight for the upcoming fight but if this is what have been he's doing I think his team will know what to do also.

^ It is almost there and I think if Logan did not practice I don't think if there is still time to do that.
It is cowardness to back up the fight, it is your reputation that has been stake here because people expect that Logan will fight this month and there are so many supporters and followers who want to watch. I don't expect any chance that Logan will win and hopefully with the fight of his brother will win too.

Maybe since the exhibition match is going to be entertainment, no need to focus much on training. There might be some instances where he is inserting practice on his time but still doing his usual activity outside the boxing world.

Even he's not practicing, it can't be a reason for the fight to be canceled. He can push the fight even unprepared as there's already a reward money waiting for him regardless of whether he will be serious or not.

They wouldnt really be putting themselves into a fight without having preparations even though this is an exhibition fight but doesnt mean that you wont really be prepared for it and you would really be just looking like a clown even giving a good punch wasnt really that good.lol

Paul brothers do know on whats their current interest now which is on doing exhibition fight and having some training is really just
part of the normal routine.

They need to do that training even they are just making good money, preparing their stamina and their body is highly needed.

Those opponents that they'll going to face are real fighters who know how to deal with this sport.

Not because Tyson is not above 60 years old means that he's not fit to knock Paul down. He is very capable, worse,

He can send Paul to the hospital if a solid combo hit the man up!

When was the last time Tyson knockout a fighter?

I think we are just exaggerating things, I mean we based his performance in his fights when he was still young, but now that he has retired and getting old, I don't think he still has that power to send someone to the hospital, and this fight is just an exhibition fight, so I would not set my expectation too high.

Nah, I think this fight will pursue mate, what we're seeing is just another famous spoiled brat with nothing to do about the cash he made after his online platforms especially after his fight with Mayweather that has been clearly unentertaining to watch but still they got paid a lot by it.
Jake Paul knew that if he's not in shape even for a week before the fight, his body would bounce back to him and everything he had done prior. But since he's still in-pursuit of his ways, then I think it's safe to say that we can see Jake Paul being schooled by the legendary Mike Tyson itself and I know Mike's attitude, maybe we can see him all-in

[South Park]

Nevertheless, Logan Paul performed very well in a duel with Floyd Mayweather.  It was a surprise for me ...

On what part? If Mayweather is serious, he can finish the fight quickly. Since that's a stage one, I don't see how Logan Paul performed very well in that match. The same against Mike Tyson, I don't see any interesting actions in that match.

The only thing that will entertain people and willing to spend money on tickets is because it's Mike Tyson. Die-hard fans want to see the legend in the ring once again even for an exhibition match.

There's some clips where Floyd is lifting Logan to stand still, funny but if Floyd was serious back then it will take 1 round to complete.

Mayweather is more younger and very capable to knock Paul down during that time. Still at his prime even he retired from this venue

of sport. He just collect money from those who waned to see some entertainment.

Moving back to this fight, the chance is always there for  Paul and bookies will survey it before we will see the actual offer.

It should be obvious for anyone that if Mike was serious the fight would not last even a minute, even if Mike is not what he used to be he is still one of the best we have seen during the last decades and since he is still in good shape then he still must have a lot of punching power, so Logan Paul would have no chance if Mike actually went for the KO, but we know this is not going to happen as they are interested in entertaining people rather than offering the best possible fight they can.

It should really be long as possible and wont really be  tending to knock  it out on 1st round because the purpose of exhibition fight is to make out some entertainment
and that would really be part of the contract.
They would need to dance  in the canvass for  them to make worth of those people who do pay for tickets or PPV which you could really be expecting that
they wont really be making serious.
Mike would always be having that edge yet this one is a true boxer and the other  one  is  just wannabe.

Getting a chance to fight a legend is an honor, so I think Logan Paul is very honored here as he is not a boxer but still has a chance to fight Mike Tyson. Therefore, I don't expect this like true boxing where we will see bloody boxers in the ring or one will go down hard through KO, pretty sure they have an internal arrangement already before the two will fight in the ring.

Agree with you there. Exhibition matches are not supposed to be bloodied. No seriousness but they will just like spar. Both Mike Tyson and Logan Paul obviously already have a deal and part of that is not being fully serious but just giving entertainment to the people.

That's the reason why I'm not ending up analyzing the result of the fight. All analysis can only be applied if the match is professional and real.

[STT]

I doubt they have limits on blood as such because blood by itself doesnt mean a serious injury exactly just some parts of the body bleed more.    I saw a great youtube video of Tyson's earliest coach and mentor who sadly did not get to see his later successes, part of why Tyson came off the rails later in his inability to handle his career victories with grace I think.

They have prior arrangements for sure, and the limitations that they can do inside the ring.
This is why the referee can always stop the fight if he sees it is against their arrangements.
This is just an exhibition match, we can equate it to like entertainment matches.
Both boxers will just enjoy the fight inside the ring knowing that they will have their respective paycheck at the end of the day.
Also, this is why we mostly see the outcome as like draw because it depends on the judges not the actual performance inside the ring.

And not just because it's all about "exhibition match" but it's Logan Paul. There are exciting exhibition matches before that people really want to watch but everything involving Logan Paul is considered as crap. People pay just to expect Logan Paul to be Knock Out without realizing the chances for it to happen is low regardless of his opponent.

Paul doesn't bother about his reputation as his strategy is effective. He doesn't care about people's feedback as he was profiting from it. With only short exposure in the ring, sure money in return.

[wxa7115]

So logically none of the promoters will allow that to happen, the rules are clear before the bout, no winners if it goes to the decision, winner can only be determined if there is a knockout and that is the standard followed in all the exhibition fights.

That makes sense .... Therefore in Mike Tyson really has an edge on this fight because he has the knockout power and if Tyson won't be able to KO Logan Paul because he could use a very effective strategy like making the old man tired, then the end would be boring as it will only become a draw. 

I do not think Mike is going to want to KO Logan Paul, not because the fight is fixed or anything but just because they may think this is bad for the exhibition fight, the market and demand they are creating for these kind of fights.

Even if some people want to see Mike delivering a KO to Logan a great deal of the fans of Logan probably do not want it, and they will prefer to see Logan being able to duke it with Tyson which is one of the best we have seen above the ring.

The more I read about exhibition fights, the more I go towards the situation you described. Even if the result is not fixed, it is supposed to be a WWF-like show that will be watched by entire families with children. I don't think it will be a bloody fight, but just a show.

What a precise way to put it, this is why I do not understand why some people want to make a bet in a match like this when we have no idea to what kind of agreement Tyson and Paul reached about what we are to see during the fight.

So for anyone watching this fight it is better to do so in the same way that people enjoy WWF and avoid having any kind of high expectations about what this fight could deliver in terms of Tyson knocking out Paul, as I think that is completely out of the question due to the nature of the fight.

In that case, might as well put a bet on DRAW as it might only end up the same as the last fight of Tyson.

So strange, I checked again the betting odds in my bookie and I could not find the Tyson vs Paul odds anymore.

How about you here, what bookies you are using? if you have betting odds already, please share.

[pawanjain]

So it would be a professional bout based on his own words

Paul, 26, said in August that he knew who his next opponent was but couldn't reveal the name, although he suggested it would be a professional bout.

if the fight push through and it's not an exhibition match, Paul is in big trouble Tyson base don what we've seen in his last bout still packs a lot of power and he is still accurate in his punches, Tyson may be old but this is a short distance fight and Tyson can knock him out in the early rounds, let's see the development of this bout I'd like to see the formal and official announcement.

It's risky for Mike to really get into boxing unless it's just an exhibition. With the exhibition, Logan will not really throw big punches at him.
Why Mike is chosen is I guess is that Tyson's popularity will add more attraction to the event to make more money. Despite the crisis, today people will still be willing to pay for tickets to see Mike dance in the ring.

Thats pretty much it. Both the personalities are quite famous and will grab many people's attention for the exhibition fight.
Since it is an exhibition we can't really expect a tough fight from both the ends. Mostly it is just gonna be a fight for entertainment.
At the end anything can happen so betting in this kind of fights is really risky since it might end up in either of the player's favor.

Exhibition fight will certainly be very different from the fight for the title, and of course there will be a little entertainment that will attract the audience to enjoy the fight between tyson and logan, as a tyson fan, to be honest, I really want to see tyson back in the ring even if only only an exhibition fight, that's why I'm really looking forward to seeing the fight and hope that the fight will be able to give satisfaction to boxing fans, especially tyson fans around the world.

[pinggoki]

In that case, might as well put a bet on DRAW as it might only end up the same as the last fight of Tyson.

I think that this is the more likely case to happen, I mean there's a high possibility that Tyson will knock out Paul but given that this is an exhibition fight, they might likely drag this fight out and end it in a draw so both sides won't get too much flack from their respective fans.

If the fight goes to the distance then you think the ego of Mike Tyson can accept that, if someone who is not even a professional boxer was able to counter his punches and was able to go the distance. I am sure even though Mike Tyson is 50 plus he will be looking to knockout Logan Paul and i am sure he will be getting the opportunity to land one heavy punch.

Logan Paul was able to go the distance against Floyd Mayweather, but he was a much smaller fighter and is not known to have knockout power, but Mike Tyson was a Heavyweight king for a long period of time.

[Ziskinberg]

Logan Paul was able to go the distance against Floyd Mayweather, but he was a much smaller fighter and is not known to have knockout power, but Mike Tyson was a Heavyweight king for a long period of time.

Mayweather was smaller but he was quick, he could KO Logan if he wants to. For Tyson, yes he is bigger, but not sure if he is quick enough to catch Logan Paul if Logan's strategy to keep him alive is just to run inside the ring all night. Let's just find out though as anything could happen, but since this is an exhibition fight, we better not expect so much.
