Power is indeed the last thing to go but the peekaboo style requires a lot of explosiveness and athleticism. It’s hard to keep that up with old age. I do think he could’ve done better but not as much as a lot of people think. There were definitely some secret clauses or something.
I think the combination of weighted gloves, exhibition match and not in Tyson’s prime did this. The ambition is what makes people fight harder. Tyson got paid the moment he got in the ring. There was no incentive to knock Paul’s head off (as much as we would’ve loved to have seen it.)
Tyson was an animal during his prime because he was also trying for heavyweight champion or defending it.
Weighted gloves make the hits slower and don’t allow for hits as hard as there could have been.
Paul recently fought someone who is still in his prime, and what happened? The jaw break seen around the world.
Tyson was holding back punches in the first few rounds. He could have knocked Jake Paul out in the first round. Paul won because Tyson was tired after like round 2.
I mean…Logan Paul didn’t seem to have much of an issue against Tyson.
How’s Lana’s blocking? I bet I could knock her out easier that I could knock out Tyson.
It’s Logan Paul, 99.999% sure he also pays his “Opponents” to let him win
Tyson is like 70 dude.
Yes, but he’s also Mike Tyson. He can probably still hit someone hard enough to kill them on the spot.

Every loss makes a boxer worse. He may still be strong, but he made his name and fortune receiving head trauma.
Which still doesn’t mean Logan Paul’s boxing career isn’t total bullshit
Jake forgot that one simple trick.
