The fact that IG followers is a stat on the chart sums up the state of boxing.

The fact that Instagram followers is in the stats lets you know

[treauxvidieaux]

He fought a boxer. He fought Tommy Fury, and lost.

[Autoravetv]

Had anybody every worked with an older man who labored most of his life? They are animals. I dont think people realize how much power Tyson still has.

[Rob-htmu]

All these young talented fighters out there and he doesn’t want fight any of them.

[Mal_]

If Mike gets angry, Jake gets hurt. Period.

[mikelowry]

Ain’t no way this ain’t fixed. Mike about to ruin his legacy

Vince Mcmahon coined the term "sports entertainment" to describe what professional wrestling was. We need to start labeling these events "sports entertainment". It's a separate category that people can enjoy guilt free just like Wrestlemania. It just has to be labeled correctly.

Better question is should we care about Steven’s opinion on any fight whatsoever

[turnpike]

This is not a fight, its an exhibition. No one will get hurt. They are doing a sparring event with Mike holding back. Why is everyone falling for this as if they will legit fight?

[joeyostrander]

This is the equivalent of a young G League player going one on one with Michael Jordan.

There is also rumors going around that Mike Tyson trains every day so the fact that they seen them with the cane is kind of irrelevant without more context because if he’s training every day, he could’ve tweaked an ankle and that’s why he was walking with a Kane

[Grandmaster_Vic]

As much as Tyson is an absolute legend. I would rather celebrate real fighters who really put they heart and soul into the craft instead as a marketing ploy

[ritchski]

there is no way this is a real fight. Tyson has said many times he will only fight in exhibitions.

[billbkrify]

I don't get it. Does Mike need the money? I am being dead serious. Does he? That is a disgrace to boxing. Jake is not a boxer. The only real boxer he fought he lost against. He realized at that moment he is not a boxer of any rank. For those that think Mike is in the same condition he was when he fought is delusional. And to be announced as a exhibition said it all. I bet there is a no knock out clause.

[brucelau]

Mike would EASILY knock him out . Come on he’s 58

[jeremiahhunter]

remember people, without a bag in life, YOU DONT EAT!LOL

[johnnyguitarwatson]

Well I can speak for me! I'm not getting in the RING with Mike TYSON if he's 77! Cane or no cane! He didn't have a cane when he was VICIOUSLY sparring hitting them mits with his trainer!

[Range_]

Let the man make his money, I didn’t see you dogging the whack exhibition matches Floyd Mayweather had at the end of his career

[dabd]

My grandpa retired at 55 last year. Jake said the age was too close 😂
