This fight won't even happen. Not now , not in the future or ever. This was just an idea of quick money grabbing and in my opinion , boxing is a dying sport right now and it's sad but true.
Regarding this event, I would be ashamed of me if I was Logan Paul ...just to have the guts to challenge the Iron Tyson says a lot about this new generations of boxers who barely have respect for the sport or his opponent or veterans.

~ Obviously it does not happen to everyone but it happens to a great deal of players, for example on the NFL the average length of a player's career is something like 4 or 5 years, so even if they are paid good money for their services this means that at some point they need to find another way to earn a living, and it is incredibly difficult to believe they are going to find another job that pays so well, so the majority of the players end up broke at some point during their lives. Obviously this is a sad part for majority of the sportsman, if they are not smart to invest in something that could earn them a living during their prime playing time then they will suffer when their career ends, once they reach the level of luxury it will be hard for them to live a normal life and usually their wealth runs out faster than they think and ends up filing for bankruptcy. Unfortunately this is incredibly common, an athlete lives out of their body and we know that eventually no matter how hard they train a limit is reached and their abilities start to deteriorate and then their career is over, but by that time they have developed a series of expensive habits that while they could be maintained while they were working and receiving an exceptional pay once that is over they cannot afford it anymore, but they keep living live that, which eventually causes them to go bankrupt.

Thinking the future of the boxing sports it seems that you are right it's almost dying right now .but I hope that's not gonna happen. There are different kinds of attitudes the fighter has, some fighter are very respectful, they will respect their opponents until the end of their fight. But there's other fighter get the crowd by bragging and talk bad things about their opponents.

If you say this, although it is a little painful to say, boxing is not as famous as it used to be and it is not wrong to say that this is a dying thing. But on the other hand maybe for now it won't be too bad because there are still many boxers who are quite good, especially for young people. Call it Garcia, Inoue and even Casimero they are good enough to advance the boxing I think because they are young people who are still enthusiastic here.

Agreed. It has been obvious since Tyson himself said that no fight between him and Logan Paul was ever even in the works. As I've stated before, there was a short talk about Jake Paul fighting Tyson, but Tyson saw that it was just an attempt to make money off of his name and he wasn't interested. The fact is that Mike is too old to be fighting. Sure, he could still kick nearly everyone's ass, but the risk of injury or permanent health issues is too much for someone in his position to risk. For that reason, I think this thread should be locked. It's been slapped around far too much for something that was nothing more than a publicity stunt by promoters who were hoping they could get this fight going.

But there's other fighter get the crowd by bragging and talk bad things about their opponents. Not everything would really be the same because each fighter does have their own behavior whether they are just silent and humble and some do really trashtalks a lot or something disrepectful. As for industry then it is true that boxing do become obviously a business not like on the past that we could really see quality fights but now it is mostly involved with lots of exhibition which is purely for money making purposes. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

Agreed. I thought Tyson would take this fight for the sake of easy money, but it turns out just the opposite: Mike Tyson words: "I don't think I'd ever just do stuff like that anymore. I wanted to do it the first time just for fun, just to have fun. Then some people took it to another level and made it financial and the fun went out of it." It seems that health is more important to him than money, and even though I wish we could see Iron Mike in the ring, I'm glad he makes very rational and wise decisions.

It's not his health but it's clear he doesn't want to be the reason or be an advantage for some entertainers out there to have a good profit in return. If this fight happened, Logan Paul will have easy money out of his fun because he will be dragged by the name of Mike Tyson. In today's generation, there are always people who want to watch Mike Tyson again as they never have had a chance to witness his greatness before. Since that's the situation, expect that his exhibition match will gather a lot of viewers making their fight a big profitable event.

It is true that from the quote I gave earlier, it appears that Mike does not want to fight for the money, and in particular, for someone to make money from his name. However, in the same interview, he admitted that his body changes with age. "Every 12-13 months, boom! Something's missing," "Boom! I'm losing muscle mass. It's always something different. And, I don't know. Guys want to fight me for $100 million," So from all of the statements we can conclude that if he were to fight, it would be for fun and not for money and that he realizes that a real fight at his age is not a safe and smart idea.

Yes, everyone who watched his fights were eager to watch him live fighting again, but this isn't gonna happen. Op needs to change the polling subject, whether the match will be conducted or not. Even without anything happening, just with the mentioning of Logan Paul vs Mike Tyson he's earning big. Everything is watched with the business perspective and that's where Logan have chosen Mike Tyson as it'll reach big user community.

No one on his right mind on putting his health at risk for some millions.Well, for people who are young then it wouldnt matter but for an old man which his health is already that fragile then i dont see for it to be worth on putting up himself into trouble specially if he do knows that he's financially well and doesnt really need more money for that sake.IF he's having that passion for boxing then he might consider but using up his name for others benefits then it wouldnt really be an enough reason for him to agree on.

It is already safe to assume that this won't happen in the near future because Mike Tyson also said that he won't be stepping on the boxing ring anymore to fight, either if it is sanctioned or not sanctioned by the Athletic Commission. This supposed fight was just a hype and there's no actual negotiations happened. As for Logan Paul, I really don't call him or include him in the "new generation of boxers" or even a professional boxer. He doesn't deserved it!

Logan Paul is just in this industry to make a noise while he is showing and enjoying his life on his youtube videos. He doesn't really deserve to be called and to be recognized as new generation boxers because I don't think he deserves this kind of recognition with his current standing in boxing. Like he just wanted to hype the game and earn money from it and as we all know there are some speculations that if ever the fight of Mike Tyson vs. Logan Paul pushed through it would be just a kind of cooking show. So for me, it's a smart move from Mike Tyson to step out on the boxing ring now due to his age, he already proven his worth as a boxer and he is recognized as one of the good boxer.

seeing how exhibition boxing matches have been used as an easy money grab for people who is complete amateur or have no prior experience of boxing, I completely agree with him and understand his sentiment. exhibition matches should be for fun for the boxers/athletes.

Exhibition is really just for fun but on the essence that it do becomes a money grab and some do make use of its popularity for even making more money then i couldnt blame on why he refused on making out fight arrangements or making or letting it to happen. He would definitely prioritize his health which its a wise decision just like on what others been saying on here.Lets just respect on what he had chose. If this is someone who is really a boxer then he might accept the deal but its not.Even with Roy Jones exhibition he might still have doubts.

The fact is that Mike is too old to be fighting. Sure, he could still kick nearly everyone's ass, but the risk of injury or permanent health issues is too much for someone in his position to risk.
Tyson said he was a recovering drug addict, that alone would exclude him from qualifying in most mainstream fights. Putting the body through that kind of strain can force a serious injury or possibly even cardiac incident, a famous sportsman just died at 53 not far off Tyson's age. Add in normal injuries that occur like all the areas around the eye that are easily damaged and age its not worth the risk. From the time on he said he was in recovery I thought it became quite impossible and he gets paid enough just to talk about old fights why risk losing health for money.

When it comes to Mike's cocaine problems, he has spoken about it many times, and he firmly says it's in the past. At the moment, he admits to only smoking marijuana. However, at the moment it doesn't matter as much as just how old he is. No one doubts that Mike still has great abilities and huge experience, but let's not forget that this is a heavy weight. There are no weak players in this weight, and even one not very strong hit could be fatal for any 54-year-old. Even for Iron Mike.

By paying attention to this, the risk that can be obtained is not comparable, I think, but it goes back to the person concerned whether he really loves his body or will only think about money in this case because it is indeed a wasteful and almost bankrupt measure like him, then take things like Even this doesn't surprise me even though there will be a lot of people restraining it.

None of his good friends wants to see him fight again at this age, Dana White even said that to the face of Mike Tyson in one of the interview that he does not want to see him compete again even for fun.

~ I thought Tyson would take this fight for the sake of easy money, but it turns out just the opposite:
Mike Tyson words: "I don't think I'd ever just do stuff like that anymore. I wanted to do it the first time just for fun, just to have fun. Then some people took it to another level and made it financial and the fun went out of it." If there was a serious discussion about the fight then i am sure Mike Tyson would have approved for the fight but in this instance the Paul brothers just used the name of Mike Tyson to get more promotion and nothing else and they get more media time. It seems that health is more important to him than money, and even though I wish we could see Iron Mike in the ring, I'm glad he makes very rational and wise decisions. None of his good friends wants to see him fight again at this age, Dana White even said that to the face of Mike Tyson in one of the interview that he does not want to see him compete again even for fun. And it seems, Tyson is not anymore for the money here. So he doesn't want this exhibition fight anymore. He realized, if he will push thru, he's like been milking by these Paul brothers and he doesn't want that to be his last legacy. So yeah, good for Mike Tyson to stop this kind of entertainment in boxing. He's pretty much settled already with his life.
