[BOXING] Logan Paul vs Mike Tyson

[24Kt]

Guys, this fight isn't going to happen, so we'll never know who's stronger. So there's no point in guessing. In any case, more people will vote for Mike Tyson as his fans are in every corner of the globe and his sporting career will be set as an example for many years to come in boxing schools.

I beg to disagree, Mike Tyson has been favored by a lot of people not just because they are his fans but they also literally know that Logan Paul can't possibly defeat the living legend here and yes there is exactly no point in guessing because we can literally tell who's side will win and that would be Mike Tyson.

But yeah, sadly this fight is just a hype.

I would rather agree with madnessteat - since we cannot verify the assumption, then there is no point in arguing.
By the way, how far does your confidence in Tyson extend? For example, in 10 years, will he still be the favorite against Logan (whose age, we assume, will not change in any way and he will remain in his current physical condition)?

It is not Logan Paul, but Jake Paul he wants to have a fight. But he is demanding about 1B bucks in case the fight will happen. He said he has no money, so he's willing to do the exhibition fight and sign the contract.

I don't think they can achieve that amount as the known highest grossing PPV was Mayweather - Pacquiao generating $400M. So $1B for exhibition match? That's very far from happening during this pandemic and war crisis.

the amount is ridiculous so it's probably just talks and no action will be taken. also, even without the pandemic or war, there is no way they would generate that much money. even the two most well-known boxers in the world wasn't able to achieve that.

$1 Billion? That surely had me laughing
That's insane and there's no way that they could come up with that huge amount or at least half of it. I guess that's just another way of Mike Tyson to tell the people and the delusional boxers that he's not interested in fighting in the ring anymore wether if it's professional or exhibition match. So if they can't get his demands so it's quite fair to say that the match is impossible.

The essence of my question is not who will be Tyson's rival, but at what age Tyson can stop being taken seriously. At 65? At 70?
The amount of a billion dollars looks absolutely insane, but in the future I think it will be reached - we all see how inflation is going. Plus, keep in mind that the world is becoming more and more involved in "global entertainment" so if some event can attract an audience of 1-2 billion people, then why shouldn't there be such an amount of money at stake.

Tyson was good player on this two players.Tyson move was always unique compared to Logan Paul.I had read the thread carefully.Nearly 7/8 was supported Tyson.Tyson match to strong arm hand was always unique one.The game with the less power person will be short run game.Paul game was good with the arm power equal to him and not to the player like Tyson.

We can already expect that almost all people who knew Mike Tyson will side on him, besides he's the legendary Iron Mike and against the amateur boxer named Logan Paul will really be a chicken and easy fight against the legendary. I mean look at the man now, even he's quite older than Logan we can still say that he will win on this one.

Clashing out between a boxer and a boxer wannabe then you could already point out on whose gonna win even though there's a huge gap in age but we could not really neglect about experience.

If Mike would really get serious on this exhibition then Logan would be sleeping on the canvass but since we know that this fight wont be happening as Mike had clarified out that he's not interested

for something like this which fighting for the sake of money which does shows a true behavior of a boxing legend.

Yes that's the term, he is indeed a wannabe boxer , thank you! I don't really agree that Logan Paul is already a professional boxer just because he got a fight once with KSI and bring a 0-1 on his record aside from the exhibition match against Mayweather because that's not sanctioned.

Indeed, Logan will surely sleeping if unfortunately Mike will get serious all of a sudden but suddenly we can't get to see any of this happening because the fight isn't happening either.

I agree, this thread should be locked/closed for good because Iron Mike already said that he won't be returning in the ring anymore doing some fights, for good and I don't either doubt that Mike's decision will change somehow in the future especially his age are also increasing as time goes by.

Many people and fans have hoped to see the legendary boxer fighting once again the ring but sadly, he refused to do it.

I just saw a more recent interview with Mike where he didn't refuse to fight, he just named his price and said to leave him alone unless you have it ready to go up front.  His price you ask?  $1,000,000,000.00.  Basically, he's saying he won't do it, but you never know I guess.  Maybe Elon Musk will wake up and decide he wants to see Iron Mike knock out Jake Paul so he ponies up the billion.

It should be noted that Mike's comments were in relation to Jake Paul, not Logan.  It has been stated already quite a few times that the Logan Paul rumor was nothing more than talk on a podcast and that the two teams never discussed a fight.

If a person is not able to hear, then especially unreceptive ones need to be explained in another language, in this case, everything should be clear to everyone in the language of money. In the end, this is a legend, and if a person knows his own worth, then why not. Of course the main message of this is to just leave him alone.

Demanding that big amount is only tantamount to saying he is not going to fight Mike Tyson. These Paul Brothers are just messing around in the boxing world, they are only trying to pick a fighter that they could beat, well, except for Logan who has not won a fight yet.

Jake Paul thought he is more valuable than Pacman and Mayweather, that's insane, he should get himself check first because the mental issue is normal these days in boxing.

Yes, @24Kt also gave us that same link where Mike said that his fee will be $1 Billion. Mike Tyson have said that enormous amount maybe because the hype is still clinging to him and the fans around the world wants him to see again in the ring even if it's just an exhibition match. Well, who knows maybe Elon Musk will suddenly pay that amount upfront because he is also a big fan of Mike Tyson.

Actually, Jake Paul is more challenging to see in the ring against the legendary rather than his older brother that doesn't know how to fight and who only knows how to milk everyone.

[Sanitough]

Mike Tyson have come up with a really good reason on how to tell people and other organizers that he won't be stepping in the ring anymore and do some fights, he didn't specified what's the reason behind it but that surely that statement was clear enough that he don't want to do fights anymore with anyone even if it's an easy money. There's really no way that someone will spend with a billion dollar for just a fight, that's just insane.

That is just another way of saying that he doesn't want to fight anymore that is why he have come up with a huge and enormous price tag, for the last time he is clearing all his statement that his off the ring and a big easy money won't tempt him to do a fight especially for the Logan brothers and anyone who's eyeing him.

[South Park]

People keep talking about how Mike is 55 years old but lets not forget that his pretty much decent shape.  He is still capable to rip your soul out The fact that Logan thinks that he can defeat Tyson shows how much this guy is delusional. Mike tyson will definitely break his jaws in one punch.  This is the equivalent of mouse thinking that he will win against the lion.

The fight is not happening so we are not going to be able to see Tyson ripping the soul out of the body of Logan Paul, however I agree, even at this age Tyson could beat 99.99% of the human population in an one on one fight, so it was ridiculous for Logan Paul to think he could defeat Tyson just because he is old, as despite the abuse of substances that Tyson has gone through over the years he still looks as if he is in tremendous shape.

We just saw him fight Jones Jr and if you'll assess how fit still he is, fighting Paul is not going to be a tough for Mike but like what many say it won't go to happen and there's no way for Paul to suck money from Mike's fans. Maybe Tyson will be interested again if there's going to be a charity exhibition. Maybe for that cause he will entertain and be back inside the ring.

Or, maybe other promoters will offer him new exhibition not with Paul but some known names just for entertaining his fans who
wanted to see him fighting.

I guess Mike is much wiser than those 2 YouTubers. He's (Mike) testing the waters whether the fight would sell enough of his standards and If either of the 2 are worthy for his comeback.
Now, he hadn't hold back and named his price. Well, that's kinda gave him the authority coz he's a legend, and nobody can just challenge a legend out of nowhere even if it means it's just an exhibition match.
That kind of amount Mike is requesting is an indirect refusal to this match, but who knows it could be achievable. Lol

Absolutely.

That was the clear sign that he's not going to sign up with any match anymore regardless of how much the offer could be and whoever that could be.

There's really no way that someone will spend with a billion dollar for just a fight, that's just insane.

Well, I guess promoters would love to spend that amount as long as they know and projecting that it could be double of the return with that amount and the fighters involved really got what it takes to earn that much.

Yeah! instead of him, they can choose some other boxers who have the same popularity as him and are in need of money but I doubt that they can find someone like him though. Because if they somehow get another boxer, it would not be profitable as him. Nowadays, people don't really care about their match unless the brothers are against a fighter who can surely knock them out to sleep. But I doubt that they will let themselves lose to it by not rigging the fight again because if they lose, they also lose their fans as well.

Same here, given that Mike Tyson has been through 4 years jail time and mid to extensive substance abuse in the previous years while he is still fighting we can still say that the old man is still in a great shape to have a fair one on one fight or even knock out some mid experienced boxer. And if it's Logan Paul or his younger brother, I don't either doubt that this old legendary boxer will put those brother at sleep even before the middle rounds come.

Well guys I didn't know, but I think Mike gave such an exorbitant amount to be left alone and not continue with the push, the pique is with Paul but not with Logan, that is clearer than water, but seeing it well and being More aware, I don't think there is someone with such a high sum of money, of course an Elon Musk would not be a problem, although it is possible because I know that Elon Musk is a good fighter, because he had the audacity to defeat Putin in a fight.

In any case, I do not close the possibilities of it happening, it would be something from another world, but honestly, I see this as very unlikely to happen.
