Tyson Paul
- Thread starter mjmaherjr
- Start date
I heard this is on netflix. If so, My curiosity will get the best of me and i will likely tune in.
A lot of chatter about it being fixed/fake but my hope is Tyson just turns back the clock on one of his swings ala The Hangover

I'll be watching. Kinda wish they weren't using the heavier gloves.
a PT Barnum production. 
What time is it on? I think I'd rather watch BE hoops but might be tempted if it's before 10 pm.a PT Barnum production.

I think card-wise it's normal size, which means where you are they might not get to the ring until 11.
That kills it for me. Only times I am awake past 11 are: (i) New Year's Eve (ii) when Johnnies have a 9 pm or later start or (iii) those rare occasions I can convince my wife we're not old geezers.

Probably 11 I'd say. The Taylor-Serrano fight will be entertaining if early sleepers can make it until then.

Sadly I admit I’ll be watching. I mean I wouldn’t pay extra for it but I pay Netflix already and besides my wife watching Christmas movies I never have a reason to watch. So I’ll be watching tonight. Tyson is my age and I look at this as a victory for old guys who are still stupid enough to get in a ring with a guy half his age.

I'll be really impressed if he's not totally gassed halfway through the fight, but he's still Mike Tyson: A well-placed body shot will make Paul crumple.Tyson is my age and I look at this as a victory for old guys who are still stupid enough to get in a ring with a guy half his age.
I'd rather he try that early rather than punching himself out by wildly head hunting for a spectacular KO.
I have always had a warm spot for Mike Tyson.
Many years ago a coworker who became a good friend took his elderly parents out to dinner near Albany (Delmar) to celebrate their anniversary. On the way there the skies opened up, and when they parked the car and got out the rains changed very heavily into a deluge.
A young man leaving the restaurant had an umbrella and saw this. He sprinted to them and in the most gentlemanly fashion escorted each of them to the restaurant. He deliberately gave them full cover of the umbrella while he got soaked to the bone.
Chatting briefly with them, he wished them a happy anniversary before departing, dripping wet.
Of course the young man was Mike Tyson, and he was training with Cus D'Amato at a facility nearby. He was already world famous, and did this all in an unassuming way.
We are all a collection of sometimes contradictions, so that story about Tyson always impressed me not to be so harsh when we see the worst of someone.

Isn’t it something like 8 2-minute rounds? That should help Mike. Honestly, I hope he knocks Paul out for the entertainment value. I get tired walking to the refrigerator from the sofa to grab a beer. Watching him not be gassed would be nothing new.
Come to think if I just devoured two lobster rolls from Stu Leonard’s and I’m beat from that effort alone.

I think show is running late, so they might not even have started their ring entrances by 11. Root for the women to go the distance.
* Whoops, didn't even notice how late it was. Make that 11:30
