Breaking: Victorious YouTuber Jake Paul furiously denies mocking boxing legend Mike Tyson, 58, after win the…See More

We’re going to call it there. Thanks for joining our coverage of the events down in Texas, which unfortunately didn’t quite live up to what we’d all hoped for. I’m trying to settle on who was the real winner of the night.

Certainly not the fans or the sport for the reason above, and definitely not Tyson. Texas, maybe? Ah, Paul. It’s Jake Paul because he’s got an extra $40million in his pocket. I guess if it’s just about money then Tyson is a pretty big winner of the night after all.

Until next time, take care!

It raises the question of who Tyson could fight. He took on fellow former great Roy Jones Jr in 2021 so maybe a duel against another fighter of his generation could be interesting. Lennox Lewis or Evander Holyfield perhaps.

That being said, I think it would still be quite depressing seeing these legends of the sport in a diminished form scrapping it out. I’ll watch it! I just won’t enjoy it.

Viewers unfamiliar with the sport may be surprised to hear that both fighters are set to face suspensions following the eight-round clash in Texas.

But the issuing of temporary bans in combat sports is common, particularly when a fighter has suffered a knockout. as it ensures the fighters get the rest they require.

The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, which oversaw the event, will ensure both fighters get a break. It is, as of yet, unclear how long that rest will have to last, but it will last for a minimum of seven days.

If Tyson or Paul had lost by technical knockout, then they’d have been suspended for a minimum of 30 days. If it was via knockout, though, that suspension would have been extended to 60 days.
