The only person who lacks dignity here is the guy challenging someone twice his age to a boxing match.
Nah they probably sat together and said… we can make bank… let’s do this and give people a good show… And then they did the whole shebang and gave people a nice performance that cost next to nothing to produce and pocketed the rest. Pretty clever.
Jake Paul knows some people pay to see Tyson beat the anot out of him, others hate watch him and he has fans apparently.
It’s not clever at all. It’s blatantly transparent and only a moron would watch it.
Or people that don’t know any of the drama and just wanted to see Tyson do something one last time. The uninformed do thoughtless shit all the time.
I dunno mate, reading all these comments instead of doing literally anything else is starting to make me question my own dignity…
The match was close despite the age difference and also the difference in the level of class both before and after the fight was staggering.
Jake Paul made a fool of himself.
Are you talking about that guy that is almost as well known for biting off Hollyfield’s ear as he is for his boxing prowess losing dignity from making 20 millions dollars playing the sport that he loves regardless of the effort?
Talking about dignity when it’s a sport where adult men punching each other in the face for entertainment
Also historically one of the most flagrantly corrupt sports in the world, up next to FIFA
How will kids be able to look up to Mike Tyson after this??
How much did you lose?
Tyson can punch me up for 16 minutes straight, take whatever of my dignity he wants for himself, and I’d be cool with even 10 million.
The world isn’t going to shit because people are willing to entertain others for serious money.
I’ll take a million and he can bite the tip of my ear off too.
My coworkers and I were discussing before the fight how much it would take to get us in the ring with Tyson. $100k seemed to be the consensus. After seeing that fight, I’d do it for $1,000.
I’m sure he’s weeping into his silk sheets right now from the indignity of the whole affair. Poor baby.
How else do you think Tyson could make 20 million?
He’s not losing money via his cannabis business.
