I'm not giving money to a YouTuber, so I found a stream to try to watch the fight last night. My dad liked boxing when he was my age and younger.
Netflix could not handle the load, so the streams were buffering. I missed the first two rounds. From what I saw, it was two people trying not to hurt each other. I'm glad I didn't pay for it.
I remember Mike's fights being over so quickly, it was tough for people to justify buying them and we had this culture where bars or whatnot would buy the fights.
So much of boxing was in the past when I was growing up, Ali, Louis, Frazier, Foreman. It took me a moment to realize one of the all time greats was fighting live and before us. I sort of got the same feeling about Barry Bonds.
$20 million to dance around the ring and every one hates your opponent more. That's something.

Re: Mike Tyson and Netflix
Thats exactly what it was. It was HORRIBLE. They clearly had a gentleman's agreement not to hurt each other. Tyson looked wholly disinterested from the minute he walked into the ring. He was a crippled old man. So embarrassing.Ice Cream Jonsey wrote: Sat Nov 16, 2024 9:15 am IFrom what I saw, it was two people trying not to hurt each other.
But hey, Jake Paul got his $40M, and Iron Mike got his $20M, so yay?

Dat ass tho lol
Jokes aside that one jab I saw him lean into Paul I knew he wasn’t even trying to win because he backed off. Total money grab bs.
