    He's young, fit and has boxed from a young age in a family of fighters mind.

    I think people are under estimating how much a person can learn in 12 years training with elite coaches and the fact Tyson is 58.

    We will see and I'm hoping to God Tyson catches him and gets him out of there in the first couple of rounds.

    It really is a young man's sport... there's a reason why they end up getting filled in by nobodies in the final years of their careers.... but this is ridiculous 58 ffs.

    Regardless, I really 'hope' Tyson completely shows him up and puts a stop to all this YouTuber boxing nonsense taking good money away from actual boxers.

    Utter tragedy. I didn’t intend to watch but woke up at 5 so watched it. Absolutely garbage.

    Boxing is ****ed.

    I've just read that it apparently cost £17.99 to watch that fight?! <laugh><laugh>
    People then complaining that they are watching a TV show and not a boxing match <doh>

    The fight itself didn't bother me it was seeing a great who was so active and so full of beans reduced to nothing to make a gobshites famous for being famous nonsense prevail.

    What did people want Tyson hospitalised for their 17.99.
